Mucocele Upper Lip / cyst / sore
After the swelling went down fully, on day 5 I developed a bump on the interior upper lip: only slightly noticeable to others, but certainly annoying and confusing to me. Research revealed that the salivary glands of the lips can become clogged or inflamed after trauma, or after significant swelling dies down, leaving what feels like a large cold sore, or blister. I looked up different treatments, which may include oral surgery, but after massage and application of topical products, mine finally diminished--not gone entirely, but greatly diminished--by day 10.
Day 4-ish
Day 4-ish: Monday, the first day back to work after Friday's upper lip resty silk injection: All looks normal, not obvious that my upper lip has fillers in it. The area above my upper lip, where the smokers lines were, is smooth, definitely fuller, definitely thicker: and my final verdict is, it looks good. No need to go chasing the resty with a dissolver. The fullness in this area has softened the look of the naso labial folds, which is definitely a plus.
Day 3
The shape and thickness of my upper lip has definitely changed: it's protruding, it's bigger, thicker, something I was not at all interested in, as it's now much fuller than my bottom lip. I hope that this is residual swelling. the smoker's lines are flat and smooth, which was the aim, now to see if the upper lip regains it's previous shape and proportion to my bottom lip. I can go out in public today, and not look like a Kardashian, but, I don't love the change to the shape and thickness of my top lip. I'll wait a few weeks to see if I need some of this dissolved.
