What the study is about

The goal of this clinical trial is to look at the effect tranexamic acid (TXA) may have on reducing bruising, swelling, and pain after facial filler injection. The main question it aims to answer is:

  • Does the addition of TXA to hyaluronic acid (HA) reduce bruising, swelling, and tenderness after HA injection?

Participants will receive the study medication along with the standard facial filler injection and complete surveys.

Being studied: Hyaluronic Acid (HA); Tranexamic Acid (TXA); Saline (placebo)

Conditions: Facial Filler Injections; Hyaluronic Acid; Tranexamic Acid
