The chances of this happening are very small, but if it does happen, the complications can be serious and may be permanent.

As with all skin injection procedures, there is a risk of infection.
Minimize strenuous exercise and exposure to extensive sun or heat within the first 24 hours following treatment. Exposure to any of these may cause temporary redness, swelling, and/or itching at the injection site.
Patients who experience skin injury near the site of injection may be at a higher risk for adverse events.
