During menstruation, women experience hormonal changes that may increase the body's sensitivity to medications and external stimuli. At the same time, blood clotting function may be altered during this period, potentially increasing the risk of bruising or bleeding at the injection site.瘦脸针 typically uses botulinum toxin or fillers, which may interact with the body's hormones during menstruation, affecting treatment outcomes or increasing the likelihood of side effects.
Although receiving a瘦脸针 injection during menstruation does not directly affect its slimming results, it may increase the risks of facial hematoma, bleeding at the injection site, allergic reactions, and infection. Therefore, it is generally recommended that women avoid receiving瘦脸针 injections during their menstrual period. If an injection is truly necessary, it's important to fully understand the potential risks and proceed only under a doctor's guidance. Additionally, close attention should be paid to any changes in symptoms after the injection, and medical care should be sought promptly if any abnormalities occur.
In all cases, choosing a reputable medical facility and an experienced physician for the procedure is essential to ensure safety and effectiveness.
