Why can I feel the Juvederm thread under my skin?

I can feel the thread of jevederm injection, is this normal?

I just had my first juvederm injection. I love the results however when the doctor was injecting a marinette line it hurt much worse than the other side and I first thought it felt numb..when I got home I realized I can feel I think what is called the thread, will this disolve or it is normal, I plan to call the office but am curious what other specialist have to say.

A: Feeling fillers?

Thanks for your question.  It can be normal to feel the filler material in the first few days after the injection.  This should resolve.  However, if the filler was injected too close to the skin surface, it may be felt for quite some time.  This may not resolve until the filler goes away..... more
