I got injected 0.8 ml of Restylane Kyss. This was my third injection (all around the same amount of filler) over the course of roughly a year. The first picture shows my lips right after the injection, I was very happy with the result. This morning I woke up with stiff, overly swollen fake looking lips (pic. 2). I am scared that this will be my final result. Is there any likelihood that this will be the case or will my lips go back to how they looked after the injection? Thanks in advance!
