Most patients experience side effects from Restylane Kysse that are mild or moderate and last seven days or less. These side effects are very similar to those experienced with any other HA-based lip filler products and include the following:
Redness
Swelling
Pain and tenderness
Firmness
Bruising
Itching
To ease these side effects, cold compresses can be applied after your treatment.
Avoid any alcoholic beverages 3-5 days before your appointment, stop any vitamins and multivitamins, and avoid taking NSAIDS like Advil or Aleve for five days prior to your treatment. It’s also essential that you avoid sun exposure until the swelling subsides.
Restylane Kysse is the best filler option for plumping your lips as it causes the least amount of swelling compared to other lip fillers on the market. However, potential side effects for this and any other similar treatment should be thoroughly discussed during your consultation, helping you understand precisely what to expect during and after your treatment.
