I've received them before and they have never been as swollen. They were painful and even a little itchy for a short while afterwards. The pain & itchiness have gone away but they are still unusually swollen. Ice does not seem to be working at all. It has been 15 hours, I've been getting lip injections for two years & have never had this reaction. I drank the night before, could this have affected it? I was also around cats right after. I had a small amount injected, should they be this swollen?

Answer: Swelling after lip injection Thanks for your question and post. Often times, swelling can persist for up to one week. It is not uncommon to have differing amounts of swelling with each treatment. It is unlikely related to any drinking or cats this early in the recovery process. If it was only 1 or 2 syringes of product, you will only notice a subtle change once all of the swelling has improved.I hope this helps.- Dr. Bryson Richards

Answer: Swelling after Lip filler Swelling can last between 1-2 weeks after injections. I would recommend waiting two weeks, if you are still unhappy with the results then contact your doctor/injector. Good luck

Answer: Swollen lips after filler injections Swelling is normal for a few weeks after fillers. I suggest speaking to your physician if you are worried. Excessive swelling, pain or color change should indicate an immediate need to be seen in the office or the emergency room. Best, Dr. Emer.
