I experienced some lumps in my nose after getting a top up using juverderm. 13 days went by an what I first thought was swelling was in fact extra filler. My doctor used heavy pressure on my nose to massage it out an the problematic areas have been smoothed out, however one area in particular towards the middle right of my nose, I still see a lump but she said this time it's actual swelling an it'll go down. Do you think it's possible that it actually hasn't gone an it's still filler?

Answer: Can Juvederm bumps in the nose be massaged out?
I encourage you to give it more time. It could still be swelling, but it is too early to tell. If after two weeks it hasn't improved return to your injector for an evaluation. Hyaluronidase can be injected to dissolve the product if necessary.
Using heavy pressure to massage a bump is a common method. I would give it a few days to see if this has worked. If not I recommend having this dissolved with hyaluronidase. After the injection of hyaluronidase you should see results within a couple of hours and final results in two days.
Thank you for your question. Yes, there would no problem with you using a different Hyaluronic acid filler, such as Restylane to touch up your lips after you have had Juvederm Ultra placed in your lips.
