i had .5 ml of Juvederm Ultra xc injected out 6 days ago. I just noticed that when I rub my lips together I can see a line that pops out, on top of my upper lip. Is this something I should be worried about? The filler looks great and feels fine, but on the side with the line that pops out, it does feel a lot more firm. I have had zero pain with he injections, and zero bruising. Everything has been perfect I'm just concerned about this weird line.

Thank you for your message! Based off of your pictures, it appears you have bruising, which is not uncommon after filler injections, especially lip filler. You can use a cool compress or Arnica for relief. If the area does not improve, gets worse, or becomes incredibly painful I would...
Lumps are normal after filler. As your RN stated, massaging is the best way to get rid of lumps and they will subside. The lumps may have moved therefore appearing in other areas. Continue to massage to break down the filler as much as possible.
