It's been a week since my appointment and while I've been waiting patiently for the swelling to subside I feel like my lips are now almost normal except for some clear blister-like lumps. I seem to have one at each injection site. It's difficult to get a photo in good focus but I hope you can see what you need to? I've circled the three main bumps but there are obviously more. They aren't painful, are semi-hard and are seemingly a transparent bubble covered by very thin skin. Thanks in advance
