The doctor went over my lips by accident with Fraxel Laser (Restore), and now my lips are so swollen it won't go down. Could that have increased the fat that was injected in my lips through fat transfer since it builds collagen? Will the swelling go down?

Answer: Fraxel in the lips? I need more information because I am confused about the specifics. Was the Fraxel performed at the same time as the fat injections, before or after and in what time frame? When was the Fraxel performed and how long has it been that you are still swollen? Did you have any blistering? All of this information will be important to try to assist you in understanding what is going on. In general the Fraxel should not effect the fat that was injected, but certainly can cause swelling in an area as sensitive as the vermilion (the pink or red of the lips).
