Fraxel Laser Increased Collagen in the Lips?

July 27, 2009
Asked By:finee in California, MD

The doctor went over my lips by accident with Fraxel Laser (Restore), and now my lips are so swollen it won't go down. Could that have increased the fat that was injected in my lips through fat transfer since it builds collagen? Will the swelling go down?
