Arnica Montana, also known as Leopard's Bane, is a perennial herb indigenous to Central Europe.  When taken two weeks prior to any cosmetic procedure (BOTOX, Dysport, injectable fillers such as Radiesse or Juvederm, or liposuction methods such as SmartLipo and VASER) arnica montana can markedly reduce bruising and swelling.  Arnica montana is most commonly available in pellet form.  Additionally, topical application of the arnica montana gel, cream, or ointment will speed the healing of any visible bruising should it occur.
