Since I got lip line fillers yesterday afternoon have been extremely concerned as it is not only bruised but disturbingly swollen. I am worried did she put in too much filler do I have to live looking like a freak? or is this normal, if it is normal then how long do I have to wait to have the swelling go down?

Answer: Fillers for lip lines Swelling after filler injections for lips and lip lines can last for 3 to 4 days. Bruising can last for a week or so. If you are not happy with your results in 2 weeks, please return to your doctor for assessment. Too much filler can be dissolved if necessary.

Answer: Upper lip line fillers and swelling When you discussed the procedure with your plastic surgeon, he or she likely discussed the risks of bruising and swelling. The latter is not necessarily a risk or complication, but an expected sequela. Care to avoid a "simian lip" or a "monkey lip" is a concern which limits the amount of volume correction in the upper lip. In addition to volume, the actual product injected may contribute to the swelling as not all injectables share the same hydrophilic properties. The presence of bruising may be indicative of local trauma related to the injection and subsurface bleeding. Once the bruising resolves, it would be better to judge and evaluate the overall cosmetic improvement and result. It is always best to discuss your concerns with your plastic surgeon in advance and if you have unforeseen questions to contact the doctor afterwards as well. In all likelihood the doctor would be able to reassure you.
