I have been getting Juvederm ultra plus lip fillers for many years now. However I want to go more natural and get them dissolved but I’ve just noticed like a weird bar/ridge on my bottom lip. Any idea what it could be and will it resolve go away once I get the lip filler dissolved or will it stay?

Answer: Lip filler- repeated use Thank you for the question. This looks like a swelling in the mucosa layer of the inside of your mouth and lip. This is not from lip filler injection. This can happen from irritation to the inside of your mouth. Wish you the best in health.

Answer: Ridge on mucosal surface of the lip Hello. That ridge is not scar tissue from fillers. That’s a fairly common occurrence on the oral mucosa that occurs in areas where there is friction (linea alba). The fillers may be related only in the sense that if your lips are fuller, they may be rubbing your teeth in that area. Biting the lip and mouth appliances can also contribute. I’ve seen it in many patients with no history of filler. Your dentist should be able to verify this. Hope this helps!
