Perlane Lumps

Perlane is a great filler material. Depending on the area and how long it has been since your injection, these lumps can be very normal. I would ask you to massage the area gently and be patient.

Lumps And Swelling After Perlane Treatment

Mild swelling immediately after Perlane treatment is quite common and often a normal part of the healing process. If the swelling or lumpiness persists beyond 1 week or is accompanied by tenderness, you should be evaluated by your injecting physician.
