Is there any way i can prevent bruising from juvederm injections? bruises seem to take forever to heal on me, so i'd like to try to avoid them when i get my juvederm treatment. do you have any advice for how to do that?

You : You can avoid blood thinner medications and supplements from 10 days before your procedure to help with avoiding bruising. Some patients also find that taking arnica helps with bruising as well.

I : I agree with avoiding Aspirin or motrin-containing products for at least 2 weeks before treatment. I use iced compresses during treatment with my patients but bruising can occur in the most expert injector's hands. Best of luck. Dr. Edwards.

You : You should definitely avoid taking blood thinners, but what's more important is that you take vitamin k daily. Vitamin k will prevent bruising effectively especially if take regularly. Speak to your doctor for more details. Good luck from nyc. For more info visit www.Drgrossman.Com.

Bruising : Icing the treated areas following juvederm treatment and stopping all blood thinners such as Aspirin prior to treatment per your doctors permission will help reduce bruising.

Filler: You can avoid aspirin and nsaids for a few weeks before injection.
