Does the likelihood of getting a lip hematoma decrease over time with continued lip filler treatments? (Photo)

Emily9323
I recently was injected with Juvederm in the lips by a very experienced Nurse Practitioner Injector. I ended up getting 2 hematomas (top left lip and bottom right lip). It took over a week for the 2 hematomas to completely go away (the bottom one actually bled out to below my lip line). It was definitely 2 hematomas and not just normal bruising. My injector told me she's never had someone get 2 hematomas during one treatment before. How likely is it this will continue to happen if I get injected again?
