Do jaw fillers hurt?
The pain can be mental and some people may feel more uncomfortable when injecting a jaw filler than others.
Before receiving any filler injections, your doctor may anesthetize the area with a topical cream or other type of local anesthetic.
You may feel some pain or discomfort at the injection site after the anesthetic cream wears off. This pain should not last more than 1 day.
Before injecting the filler
Tell your doctor about any medications or supplements you are currently taking.
Stop taking blood thinners, over-the-counter painkillers, vitamin E and garlic.
Avoid drinking alcohol.
Stop any topical skin treatments containing glycolic acid, retinols or retinoids a few days before the injection.
During this period, do not use any products to remove excess hair, including tweezers.
During filler injection
The doctor numbs the injection site.
After anesthesia, a small amount of filler gel is strategically injected at several sites along the mandible. A cannula may be used to help guide the filler inward.
Your doctor should evaluate the results of each injection slowly and continuously during treatment.
This process takes about 30 minutes from start to finish.
