Puffiness After Juvederm Ultra?
I had juvederm in lips I suffered puffiness around the mouth, even after 2weeks after it was still really puffy time to time esp if i rubbed the mouth area. 14months later including hyalase a few times there's been dramatic improvement but I still suffer from puffiness and it can be embarrassing because the puffiness make my philtrum look longer and raised. Is it just bits of juvederm left causing puffiness or am i suffering some allergic reaction to juvederm if that the case what are my solutions.

I would allow more time for the product to completely wear off and just take an antihistamine when necessary for a flare up

pwinces is correct, juvederm can be dissolved. Here is a link to our Hyaluronidase Community if you would like to do some research on that.
