I always have bruising after a fill as well. Don't feel a thing during the fill, but the next day, I have bruising, and it hurts then for about a week. Nothing too major, just discomfort.

After my little unfill last week, I had a teeny bruise.

It's pretty normal.

A bruise is merely blood collected under the skin...You figure the large needle they use it's bound to cause bleeding. Unfortunately the doc does not have x-ray vision, you can never tell when you are hitting a capilary which can cause a tiny amount of bleeding which will leave you bruised. It's nothing to worry about and will go away.

Ya, funny, that has never happened to me until my last fill. So I'd say I must have been lucky otherwise. It will go away though.

Nancy, I have had 2 fills and only felt slight pressure. It is a breeze,in and out in 10 min. or less(for the fill )

Nancy - I've had six fills - Driver describes the sensation well -- it's a slight pressure.

As for bruising, that happened to me once after my 5th fill - the size of a quarter - like ibshell76.
