A bruise: Bruising can happen any time a needle is used. Small bruises can look a little green as they resolve, but they generally go away without any treatment, assuming the needle caused the bruise. (fillers such as juvederm/restylane can cause color changes without bruising). The bruise is not likely to affect the final outcome. Just give it a little time.

Bruise: This is most likely a bruise. Bruising is not uncommon around the eye after Botox injections but should resolve within 7 days. I hope this information is helpful. Stephen weber, M.D. Lone tree facial plastic surgeon.

Bruising: It is probably just some bruising and it should go away quickly. Get back to your injector and ask while the discoloration is present.
