Dear eveagui30,dermal fillers have significant swelling post injection. I would follow up with you plastic surgeon but typically I tell all my patients to wait a full two weeks.  Generally at 2 weeks they are happy and glad they didn't dissolve.  Dissolving is unpredictable as well.Daniel Barrett, MD

There can be some swelling and/or lumps after lip injections which can last 1-2 weeks. You can apply firm pressure between two fingers on the lips for a few days, for 5 mins a time, in order to help decrease swelling and even out the lumps. If you're unhappy with your final results you can have it reversed with hyaluronidase and try a different technique next time. Best, Dr. Emer

Hello, it does appear that you have some bumps along your lower lip, however, it may also still be swelling. Take some Ibuprofen and also continue to massage to allow swelling and inflammation to come down. If it still appears lumpy in a week or so, you should revisit your injector to consider options, including hyaluronidase to dissolve excess filler.

lumps and bumps are quite common after lip filler injections, they usually resolve within a few weeks with mild massage. You can dissolve these lumps very quickly with hyaluronidase if a hyaluronic acid (restalyne/juvederm/revanesse) filler was used, but I would wait at least 2 weeks. All clinics or injectors using such product should have the reversing agent on standby at all times. Good luck from sin city .

It's hard to tell in the pictures, but you may have some bruising going on (can feel like bumps in your lips). Or, if it's a ball of product, you can have it reversed with a filler reversal agent such as hylenex. Swelling/bruising can last up to 2 weeks post procedure, so I usually recommend 2 weeks before following up with your injector. However, if you are hesitant to wait, are worried, or think you might want it reversed (you can have it reversed at any time), I would recommend a sooner follow up with your injector.
