I had juvederm injected to the lines on the sides of my mouth...I feel SLIGHTLY like a chipmunk. Not bad as the lines I can still feel swelling and slightly see it. But should I expect that this will go down for a more natural look? It is just slightly that I feel like this and I don't want to look like a chipmunk!

You should speak with yoru doctor about what he wants you to do if the filler is a bit lumpy. SOme will recommend that you do it, while others may have you come in.
Hi,
All of the treatments that you have asked about (IPL, Chemical Peel, & Microdermabrasion) are superficial and should not go deep enough to affect your Juvederm. I would recommend waiting at least until your swelling and redness resolve from your Juvederm injections...
There is a dermal filler called Belotero which has been specifically designed to fill fine surface lines close the the skin. Juvederm, on the other hand, requires much deeper injections as it may produce clumping. Also since it is a clear particulate suspension, light rays will pass through it ...
