Bumps after Juvederm
It really depends on how long ago the procedure was done. Bumps usually disappear in a week or so. After two weeks I would go into you your surgeon for a follow up. Just massage the area and maybe a hot washcloth.

Bumps after Juvederm
Juvederm is an excellent hyaluronic acid based injectable that can be used effectively for facial contouring.
It is possible that if Juvederm is not injected in a smooth fashion that you may feel bumps after the injection.
Your best bet is to apply a cold compress to this area and perform smooth and even circular massage. If you continue to feel response or if they become visible, you should return to your doctor who may choose to remove some of Juvederm or help dissolve the...

Juvederm post treatment lumps and bumps
The best answer all depends on how long it has been since treatment. It is not uncommon to have small lumps or bumps the first week after injections and this is the best time to address the issue. Massage, heat compresses and time will all help. If the bump persists past a week then we need to start looking at whether it is filler that has caused the lump or unresolved inflammation. If it is filler and massage, heat and time has not helped, then an injection of an enzyme to dissolve the...

What to do about Juvederm bumps
HI PP,
We would suggest you visit your practitioner as soon as possible before making any decisions, but you have a couple of options:
If the injections are still recent, you may be able to massage the bumps out.
Hyaluronidase (Vitrase) is an enzyme that can be injected to dissolve the Juvederm in the event that massage is not an option.
On another note, these bumps normally occur when too much product is injected in the same area. If this is what has happened you may want to consider...

Juvederm bumps treated with hyaluronidase.
Hi.
Bumps after Juvederm are best prevented by good technique. But once you have them, your choices are to wait months for the bump to fade or to try hyaluronidase injections to try to melt the bump.

Bumps after Juvederm
If it is fairly recent since your Juvederm injection, you probably can massage the area to improve the contour. If not, the doctor can obtain Widase or vitrase to "melt' or dissolve the filler.

Hi pp,
Discuss your concerns with your physician. Fortunately, Juviderm is a hyaluronic acid and can be broken down by the injection of Widase or Vitrase.
For small bumps, light massage may help. Sometimes I will carefully use a small needle and make a small puncture over the bump and gently squeeze the excessive product out. Do not attempt this at home! Return to your treating physician or someone qualified to correct your problem. Good luck and be well.

Bumps after Juvederm
Although Juvederm is one of the smoother facial injectables, it can occasionally cause lumps and bumps. Depending upon where these bumps are, you can usually address these by using gentle massage to even out the product. Be careful, however, about too vigorous massage since this may tend to break down the product and reduce duration of effect.
