Bumps and Lumps from Juvederm after 10 days?

 Hello You may want to wait another 1-2 weeks to see if there is improvement secondary to a reduction in swelling.  If you look the same at 4 weeks as you did at 2 weeks post injection, you can either try and add more filler to blend the area or try and dissolve the "bump."

Juvederm

Juvederm  can cause lumps if it is not evenly distributed or massaged.  Massage will help alleviate the lumps or bumps. However at 10 days this may not be possible. If massage does not work, sometimes Hyaluronidase can be injected to dissolve the product.
