Juvederm and lower eyelid swelling
This is typical of Juvederm in the lower eyelids, and that is why I abandoned using it in that area years ago.

Swelling after Juvederm in lower eyelids
Some swelling is normal in the lower eyelids after HA fillers, Juvederm or Restylane. Sometimes, this can last for several months. If the swelling is cosmetically unacceptable, options include supplementing with more fill, reversing with Hyaluronidase, or laser treatment over the skin. I would wait a week or two before considering options.
Good luck!

A few days to a few weeks
Swelling should go down after a few days to a few weeks. There are supplements you can take to help increase the healing time, discuss with your doctor.

How long should swelling last after fillers to tear troughs?
The lower eyelid skin is very thin, delicate and has numerous blood vessels (veins) running through it. Bruising and swelling that can last for 2 - 3 weeks is not unlikely.

Swelling after Juvederm injections
Swelling from Juvederm injections in the tear troughs should normally go down after a couple days. If the swelling still exists after a week or two you should go back and see your doctor.
