Asked By:lpa2410 in New York City

I went yesterday to a board certified plastic surgeon for lip injections. I asked for a natural look. He injected 1cc of Juvederm. My lower lip looks fine but why do I have such severe swelling ABOVE my top lip. It’s like the entire area around my mouth is inflamed. I’m so worried about duck lips and am considering going back to get everything dissolved. Is this normal on day 2? Thanks so much
