Summary

This study tests whether adding tranexamic acid (TXA) to standard hyaluronic acid facial filler can reduce bruising, swelling, and pain. Forty adults will receive TXA on one side of their face and a placebo on the other, then report their bruising intensity and duration. The goal is to see if TXA makes recovery smoother after cosmetic injections.
