If they are painful then either you have a bacterial infection and need antibiotics or you have herpes (cold sore virus) and need anti viral. Regards

Juvederm and lumps

Lumps after fillers can occur. I will often massage them out when I am performing the treatment. I will also tell my patientst that if they feel a bit "lumpy" to either come in for me to correct it, or lightly massage it at home. This usually does the trick. Sometimes lumps can be bruising.

Since the procedure was only 4 days ago I would not be concerned. They will fade in a few days. Just softly massage the area and it will be fine. If they are not gone in two weeks go back to your surgeon for a follow up.

Juvederm is an excellent hyaluronic acid based injectable that can be used effectively for facial contouring. It may be possible to feel this dermal filler under the skin shortly after the injection.
