Sometimes we need to use a prescription cortisone cream or even prednisone pills to help the redness go away faster so that dark spot don't develop as a result of too much irritation to the skin. Sincerely,

bruising from juvederm can last as long as 2 weeks. Don't worry, all bruising resolves with time. Use arnica gel on it 3 times a day to help it go faster.

The redness will go away faster if you use the over the counter 1% hydrocortisone twice a day. The sooner the redness goes, the less chance of hyperpigmentation developing. Also use a bleaching cream every other night to prevent the pigmentation problem and see your doc. Sincerely, David Hansen,MD

Permanent lip implants usually take 2 months to fully settle down and should be massaged after about 1 month to help soften any fibrous tissue developing. If there is any restriction in your movements then you need extra massaging. Ask you doc. They rarely ever need removing. sincerely, David Hansen,MD
