-Under /Over Correction – The amount of correction may be inadequate or excessive. It may not be possible to control the process of injection of tissue fillers due to factors attributable to each patient’s situation. If under correction occurs, you may be advised to consider additional injections of tissue filler materials. If over correction occurs, the use of hylenex can decrease the volume.

reaction could occur from the local anesthetic when tissue filler injections are performed. This would include the possibility of light-headedness, numbness, and, allergic reaction, and fainting. Medical treatment for these conditions may be necessary.
