Are Bumps Normal with Juvederm? Today I received a syringe of juvederm in my nasiolabial folds. There are little bumps on my right fold. It is somewhat of a flat spot where the nurse injector layered a lot of the filler. I did massage it a little in hopes of getting rid of the little bumps. Is this normal? Will it go away?

A: Juvederm and Bumps

Some of the bumps can be from the injection needle it self and the others can be secondary to the filler it self.

I would not massage too aggressively and if they are still there in a week I would recommed going back to the provider.

Good luck.

Need to Drink Lots of Water After Having Juvederm Injections? Is it important to drinks lots of water for two weeks after having juvoderm lip injections? I am worried that i have not been drinking enough to get the full result. is this possible?

A: Hydration after Filler Injection

There is no scientific data that shows drinking water will improve the results of restylane or perlane.

The products do pull in the water to help hydrate the area and achieve the desired results, but drinking excess water I dont think helps.

Juvederm or Radiesse for Temporary Scar Filler? Hello! Needing some advice regarding a depressed scar on the side of chin. I would like to start off with a temporary filler and see how the results are first before doing anything more permanent.
Today, I had two consultations. One doc suggested Juvederm Ultra and the other suggested Radiesse. Which one would be better for a depressed scar? Need help! Thanks!

A: Scar Correction with Fillers

I have used all, Juvederm, Radiesse and Restylane. It just depends on what we are looking at. They all work well as long as the scar is released before injecting the filler.

If I had to choose one filler, I would choose Radiesse because of it properties.

	“Great Results with Juvederm - Irvine, CA” This has made such a difference! I had it injected along the creases on the sides of my mouth (smile lines I guess). I have no wrinkles there and look younger too! The doctor put some numbing cream on my face first so i hardly felt anything! Its been several months now and still looks great! more
	“Juvederm Experience - Hollywood, CA” I had a week of anxiety before my appointment I was more worried about the dental block, I've been playing catch up at the dentist and have had enough dental blocks! Ugh! So thank goodness they use this numbing cream(dental block is an option) and it worked like a charm :) didn't feel a thing! Everything was quick easy and perfect! Maybe someone can help me with this, I've done... more
	“L Look 10 Years Younger! - Los...” At 55, I received 3 injections...2 of the ultra on my smile and marionette lines and a regular in my lips. Oh my...I feel like a new person. I really had no idea it was going to make such a huge difference, and it's still me, only with a plumper, healthier looking face instead of a haggard face. I am absolutely thrilled! I did have some bruising, but once it went away it looked great. more
	“No Results at All! - Glendora, CA” After the swelling went down (which lasted two days) my lips look exactly the same! i'm so disappointed, because of the money i spent and because i was looking forward to finally having nice lips. i did so much prior research and can't believe this happened! i had one syringe and my rude doctor told me i probably needed two, i wish they would have told me that before hand! my lips... more
	“Amazing - Laguna Niguel, CA” I am in my 60's, and wanted to erase some of the years. I saw my doctor who, after looking at my face, made recommendations as to what she would do if she were me.

	“Just a Dab - Burbank, CA” I spread out one syringe throughout and I felt like the use of only a small amount in certain areas helped to evenly distribute the juvederm, and to avoid the problems of bumps etc. Juvederm does seem to migrate a bit, but you can massage it on your own for the first day or two and that works. It also hurt me for 2 days like if I had a bruise but I didn't bruise at all. I always suggest... more

	“Can't Do Without It - Los Angeles, CA” I use Juvederm for my parenthesis, which were very pronounced after weight loss, and for my upper lip.
