How long do the effects of Contouring Injection last?
Generally, the effects are known to last about 4 to 6 months, but this may vary depending on individual metabolism and lifestyle habits.
What are the side effects of Contouring Injection?
Swelling, bruising, and temporary pain may rarely occur, and in very rare cases, allergic reactions have been reported. You should inform your medical provider of your medical history and any allergies before the procedure.
