Cosmetic procedures—both surgical and non-surgical—carry various risks, ranging from mild to serious. It is important to understand that outcomes vary from person to person, and no procedure is without potential side effects or complications, even when performed by a qualified healthcare professional. Potential risks and complications may include, but are not limited to:

• Infection: Any procedure that breaks the skin can lead to infection if proper hygiene isn't maintained.

• Allergic reactions: Reactions to any product used

• Scarring: Unexpected or keloid scarring can occur.

• Unsatisfactory results: Results may not match expectations, leading to psychological distress or the need for revision procedures.

• Nerve damage: Can lead to numbness, tingling, or even muscle paralysis (temporary or permanent).

• Bleeding or hematoma: Accumulation of blood under the skin.

• Temporary drooping: Some products sometimes cause eyelid or brow droop if injected improperly.

• Bruising, swelling, redness or tenderness at the treatment site

• Allergic or sensitivity reactions to topical products or ingredients

• Nerve irritation or discomfort

• Scarring or changes in skin texture

• Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation

• Asymmetry or unintended aesthetic outcomes

• Delayed healing or prolonged downtime

• Unsatisfactory or suboptimal results, which may require further treatment or correction
