Dermal fillers are undoubtedly a remarkable tool in the world of aesthetics, offering transformative results. However, being informed, not frightened, about potential implications is crucial when considering such procedures. Enter the stage – vascular occlusions. While these occurrences may be rare glitches, our highly skilled team at B’s Aesthetics is dedicated to seamlessly navigating any challenges that may arise. We not only possess the knowledge to explain what vascular occlusions are but also have the expertise to manage them effectively.
Firstly, let us explain what a vascular occlusion actually is. Visualise a vascular occlusion as a temporary obstruction in your skin’s intricate network – essentially, when dermal filler accidentally blocks a blood vessel.
So, how we do spot the signs?
Discomfort: Should you experience unusual and intensified pain, our adept practitioners at B’s Aesthetics possess the skills to distinguish between regular discomfort and a potential issue. We address concerns promptly, especially if the pain seems localised.
Persistent blanching: While some blanching is expected, our practitioners are highly trained to identify when it surpasses the norm. With expertise in techniques such as massage and warmth application, we ensure the restoration of a healthy complexion.
Unusual bruising: Bruising is a common aftermath of filler treatments, yet distinctive discolourations may signify a need for closer inspection. Our knowledgeable team can recognise peculiar bruising patterns and implement appropriate measures to maintain your skin’s optimal appearance.
If a vascular occlusion was to arise, rest assured that we are equipped with the solutions to tackle it. We’ll administer hyaluronidase which aids in dissolving filler-induced obstructions. Combined with massaging techniques, warm compress applications and oral steroid prescriptions, we ensure a comprehensive approach to restore the natural flow of your skin’s pathways.
Trust in our expertise as you consider your filler treatment – a reassurance that your journey with us is not just about beauty but about safety and professionalism.
