I had lip fillers more than 2 months ago and i have fluctual swelling of my upper lip. After getting the fillers, everything was fine, i just noticed, that i had more swelling than other people for much longer time, but my doctor said it was normal. The filler used was Juvederm. It really bothers me now, because 80% of time i have slightly swollen upper lip. The other 20% my lips look exactly how i wanted them. I take isotretinoin 30mg, but it should not be the reason
I received lip filler in January, 2023. The clinic injected 2ml into my lips. They were incredibly painful and swollen. Even after the swelling decreased, I had huge 'shelves' on both sides of my top lip, and the outer edges of my upper lip literally curled 'down'. The clinic claims they did nothing wrong, despite looking at my lips. I'm still reducing my lips. Do they look botched to you, or am I overracting?
Hi doctors, i previously posted here on the day of my injection as i was concerned about the swelling post fillers. Its been more than a month now and i feel something still looks off with my lips? i can still feel all the product in my lip and I've gotten asked numerous times why my top lip swollen I got mine done by a nurse injector. (I've previously had fillers done with very even, symmetrical results)
I received 1mL of Versa after asking an aesthetic nurse for only 0.5mL of Juvederm. I now deal with regular swelling even after 9 months has past. Will this ever stop? I also have Chrons and I am currently in remission. However, I still have swelling and it is usually close to when I need my Humira injection. Is the swelling related to the type of filler or just a reaction from my immune response? Will the persistent swelling cause any scarring?
I am going on holiday this Saturday and I want to get my fillers dissolved before I go. The only available appointment with my clinic was this Friday. I want to get them dissolved and the lady re assured me that the swelling should be gone by the time I go on holiday on Saturday. However I am concerned as I dont want to go on holiday with swollen and bruised lips. How long does swelling/bruising usually last after dissolving lip fillers?
I'm three months post injection (1.2 versa syringe) I've discussed with a dermatologist and my injector and everyone is stumped. Herpes culture negative. I've been on steroids and lips normalized and then swelling started over two days later. Is this dangerous to leave them in? Will my body adjust or possibly to a different brand? Is this a result of over filling possibly? I'm now on topical fluocinonide. Any advice please??
I had half of a syringe of volbella in early November. Since then, I have been sick twice, once with Covid and a very bad head cold. Both times, I had swelling of my lips that lasted a day or less. It went down without any intervention, but my injector informed me this can happen in some people when sick and is an immune reaction. Does this mean I am not a candidate for future lip filers? I really liked the results that I had, but unsure if I should avoid them now.
I had lip filler done over 8 months ago ( 1ml Restylane) I get random swollen bumps and lumps on my lips when I even just have one glass of wine, after a few hours it goes away. I'm just curious if this is normal to happen months after the procedure?
Im hoping I can get some clarification. I have very thin lips and over the last 10+ years I have had lip injections done. Different brands, different injectors but always the same issue. I get one syringe and for the first 2 weeks my lips look amazing which I understand is the swelling. After the 2 weeks my lips look completely normal again. I do drink a lot of water. Im not sure what could be causing my body not to retain the fillers and I do want to do more areas but worried it wont last.
5 days ago I had an injury which resulted in a cut on the inside of my bottom lip and some bleeding. I can see that the cut is in the process of healing, however my bottom lip currently still looks asymmetrical and uneven. Is this just swelling that will subside after a few weeks/when the area is fully healed, or is it possible that the filler has been moved to one side? The lip filler was injected 4 months ago. Thank you in advance
