There will be 3-5 days of adjustment period before getting used to the injected area.
It is common to worry about having foreign body on the face that is noticeable during this adjustment period,

Hyaluronic acids are non permanent. This is their disadvantage but also their advantage. Substances that are permanent invariably cause problems such as beading, irritation and infection. Furthermore, they can be molded easily and as it is part of a normal body's material, become absorbed as part of the skin without any chance of irritation

or touch up injection after 2 weeks. This is the advantage of fillers.
Most common complaint is fear of being too noticeable a change. The injection could be spaced out over 2 sessions in 2 weeks.
