Hi! I got 1 syringe of juvederm injected into my lips on Friday. It is now Monday, so it has been 3 days. My smile looks different, almost like the joker and I'm hoping that is only due to the swelling. I know the brusies will go away but how long should I wait for my smile to go back to normal and the swelling to fully reduce before I get worried? Also, when will the stiffness of my upper lip go away?
Answer: Swelling and hardness after lip injections Thank you for your question. Bruising and swelling are very common symptoms and it may take more than a few days for them to clear up. They will subside given more time.

Answer: Is swelling, bruises and hardness normal 3 days after Juvederm lip injections? Thank you for sharing your question and photographs and congratulations on your lip augmentation! Swelling after filler placement into the lips is quite common due to the thin nature of the tissues. This swelling, and your results, will steadily improve over the next 10-14 days. It often takes up to 2 weeks for fillers to soften and the tissues to appear more natural. In the meantime try reducing the swelling by using cold compresses to your lips and elevating your head at night with a couple of extra pillows behind your back. You may want to also consider using Arnica Montana and bromelain as supplements. Hang in there!

Answer: Swelling and Bruising after Lip augmentation with Fillers (Juvederm, Restylane, Volbella) Yes, lip injections can cause swelling and/or bruising. This can last 1-2 weeks after lip injections. If you're unhappy with your final results, you can have it reversed with hyaluronidase and try a different technique next time. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Swelling following Juvederm injection in lips Thank you for sharing your question. It is normal to have swelling for 1 week post treatment. If you are not satisfied at that time, see your doctor for possible touch up. Good luck,
