I am 19, had Juvederm twice before in lips with perfect results. Went somewhere new this time had 1.5 syringes. Lips were uneven, lumpy, HORRIBLE. Went in today and had hyaluronidase injected (something I'd never heard of) they look even more weird and bumpy now. I know it takes time but what are the risks? Now I have found out it can ruin the natural tissue. I am terrified and fear that I have permanently ruined my face. I was given NO consent form listing risks. Is that normal? Can i sue?

Answer: Hyaluronidase for juvederm removal.
Hyaluronisase really works so you simply did not have enough. You describe spotty removal which would be worse of course. You simply need the juvederm cleared out tnen wait 2 months and reconsider. Juvederm really is great so its unfortunate you have had a bad experience. Go back, get a lot more hyaluronidase. It cannot hurt you. I have been amazed at the quick and total clean out when used properly. You lips will be fine . Absolutely fine. Juvederm and Allergan will take great care of you and will likely cover your costs for future treatment but I cannot guarantee that of course. Allergan is a spectacular company. Dr George Commons

Answer: Lumpy lips from juvederm First of all, consult with a board certified Dermatologist or Plastic surgeon with expertise in Juvederm treatment.
Ask him/ her to review the records of your Juvederm and Hyaluronidase injections.
It is usual for a lot of the swelling to go down on its own after 2-3days.
The amount of Hyaluronidase injected won't even begin to affect your own Hyaluronic acid.
In the future, when it comes to cosmetic procedures, especially on your face and certainly on your lips, make sure you go to someone with proven expertise.
