Do not use if you have severe allergies with a history of severe reactions (anaphylaxis), are allergic to lidocaine or gram-positive bacterial proteins used to make hyaluronic acid, prone to bleeding, or have a bleeding disorder. The safety of use while pregnant or breastfeeding has not been studied. Tell your doctor if you have a history of scarring or pigmentation disorders as these side effects can occur with hyaluronic acid fillers. Tell your doctor if you are planning other cosmetic treatments (i.e., lasers and chemical peels) as there is a possible risk of inflammation at the injection site.
Tell your doctor if you’re taking medications that lower your body’s immune response or affect bleeding, such as aspirin or warfarin, as these medications may increase the risk of bruising or bleeding at the gel injection site. Using these products on gel injection sites with skin sores, pimples, rashes, hives, cysts, or infections should be postponed until healing is complete.
The most common side effects are swelling, redness, pain, bruising, headache, tenderness, lump formation, itching at the injection site, and impaired hand function. Delayed-onset inflammation near the site of dermal filler injections is one of the known adverse events associated with dermal fillers, and cases have been reported to occur at the dermal filler treatment site following viral or bacterial illnesses or infections, vaccinations, or dental procedures. Typically, the reported inflammation was responsive to treatment or resolved on its own. Serious but rare side effects include delayed onset infections, recurrence of herpetic eruptions, and superficial necrosis at the injection site. The risk of unintentional injection into a blood vessel is small but can occur and could result in serious complications, which may be permanent including, vision abnormalities, blindness, stroke, temporary scabs, or permanent scarring of the skin. As with all skin injection procedures, there is a risk of infection.
To report a side effect with any Restylane® product, please call Galderma Laboratories, L.P. at 1-855-425-8722.

ASPECT DR SKIN PEEL
Whilst amazing results have been observed from chemical skin peel treatments, please know that results vary and we cannot make guarantees. We recommend coming and speaking to our skin specialist for an in-depth consultation. They will discuss in detail how the treatment works, whether it will be right for your skin type and the expected results in line with your skin goals, skin type and skin condition.
PDO THREADS
There are a number of potential risks that you should be aware of prior to being treated with MINT MONO.
Whilst cosmetic treatments such as MINT MONO are effective in most cases, there is a risk that it won’t be effective in your case or that the outcome will not be what you hoped for. The results of this procedure may not fully meet your expectations. Failing to achieve the outcome you hoped for or experiencing side effects may have a psychological impact as well as a physical one.
As with other similar treatments there are a number of possible side effects associated with MINT MONO. These side effects include but are not limited to:
- Bruising: patients should anticipate bruising with this treatment
- Redness for several hours following treatment
- Pain and discomfort: throughout the procedure and patients may experience some discomfort for several days afterwards as the threads settle
- Localised swelling can occur after the treatment, however this should settle in 24 hours after the treatment
- From time to time there are some unexpected complications with this treatment, these include but are not limited to:
- Infection: It is rare for the skin to become infected after a procedure due to its rich blood supply. However, any time you break the skin barrier there is a risk of infection
- Nerve pain/neuralgia: Any time you are inserting an instrument or device beneath the skin (including surgery) there is a risk that you may brush past a nerve causing temporary irritation/aggravation of a nerve. This has a higher risk in certain areas of the face, your practitioner should discuss ‘at risk’ treatment areas with you during your consultation. Hypothetically there is a very remote risk of long-term pain.
- Keloid formation: This is more common in young people. Talk to your practitioner about keloid tendencies.
- Hypersensitivity to PDO – although very rare it is possible for people to develop granulomas as a reaction towards the filament
- If any of the above-mentioned symptoms or signs occur, please alert your treatment provider or clinic immediately.
