Upper Teeth Do Not Show with Smile After Juvederm Only to Nasolabial Folds and Oralcomissures?
Ihad juvederm only injected to both nasolabials and oral comisures by injector I have used for years. That night I had a deep bruise to right Nasolabial and pain and clogged up right nostril. I also had serious pain to the center of my upper gums and could barely open my mouth. I did ice it, then warmed it next day. I am happy with the symmetry of the result.. but I am worried that a nerve was struck as when I smile my upper teeth are barely seen. .

Post Juvederm Results
Thank you for your question. I would recommend returning to your provider for an evaluation. It is possible to temporarily damage a nerve and cause numbness, tingling, difficulty in movement, and soreness. This usually resolves within several weeks. Be certain to be under the supervision of a board certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon with expertise in injectables for an evaluation and for the safest and most effective treatments. I hope this helps.

You need to follow up with the MD who knowledgeable about fillers and potential complications ASAP to be evaluated.

Upper teeth don't show after Juvederm
Well, I would be curious as to how long ago this was done. Swelling and bruising even under the skin are common, but the pain you are describing up into your nose and gums is more concerning. The issue that concerns me is that there is an artery which VERY rarely can be affected by mouth injections. (I'm saying I've seen it once in person in over 17 years of injecting.) But it is there and can be affected by filler. So, if you have continued pain, or there is darkening of the skin that...
