What are the dangers of injectables?

Ashton Collins, who is director at, has revealed the big risk to cosmetic injections.

"The main risk here is that you really don't know WHAT is being injected, you risk infection, prolonged swelling and pain and possible scarring if your body reacts to this substance and should you have serious complications an expert is challenged to treat you because they don't know what they are dealing with.

If the product is injected accidentally into an artery it can cause permanent and catastrophic damage to the skin and in rare cases, permanent blindness."

But it is important to check with your doctor first to see what facial filler you are getting as some do not dissolve.

According to the website, they wrote: “Hyaluronic acid-based fillers gradually degrade over time, lasting from six months to two years, while non-hyaluronic acid fillers last longer. 

“Some fillers, like Gore-Tex and silicone, are permanent, but their appearance can be reduced over time.”
