OK to Touch my Face After Juvederm?

I recommend you do not touch or massage the treated areas yourself. It would be best if you book a follow up appointment with your injector in 1-2 weeks, and he/she can massage any residual lumps or bumps at that time.

Immediately after the injections, you should not touch the face with your fingers unless you've just washed your hands to avoid an infection. I will use my gloved hand to run my finger over the area and inspect its smoothness after the injection but massaging is done to flatten lumpiness. If the appearance is good then you should not massage otherwise you might displace the product. If you notice an area of overcorrection or lumpiness after you leave the office and can not return to your doctor, then massaging may help.

This depends on the results and location of the injection. Around the tear trough, I commonly ask patients to massage the areas to promote a smooth and subtle result. However, I rarely advise this after injection to the lips. Occasionally, if patients expereience unexpected lumpiness, I may be more agressive about asking them to perform massaging exercises.
