It is possible for the face to become stiff after hyaluronic acid injections, but this situation is not common. Hyaluronic acid itself is a filler that hydrates and moisturizes the skin, making the face appear fuller. However, factors such as over-injection, inexperienced practitioners, or improper aftercare may lead to facial stiffness. To avoid this, it is recommended to choose a qualified medical aesthetic institution for the injection and to follow the doctor's instructions for post-treatment care.
