Yesterday for the first time I had 1 syringe of juvederm put into my lips. Dr also did the dental block. I wanted something natural, just a bit fuller, and I have huge, duck lips! They are all black and blue and are sticking way far out. I'm terrified they won't go down and look normal. I iced them yesterday off and on all day. What should I do?

It is difficult to give you precise advice without performing an exam. This can occur if the filler is injected superficially. I would recommend following up with your provider, as they will be able to give you the best advice. I hope this helps, and I wish you the best of luck.
Any filler can result in lumps and bumps that most commonly last 1-2 weeks; it is quite rare to have a longer lasting lump, which is likely a granuloma. This can be dissolved with hyaluronidase in many cases or with a cortisone injection, and rarely excision of the lump is required. Dr....
It is not abnormal to have a little bit of soreness and slight bruising following treatment with Juvederm. If the discomfort persists, I would recommend following up with your provider. I hope this helps, and best of luck!
