Are Bumps in Lips from Juvaderm Permanent?

caligirl2829
I had injections done 2 months ago that caused 2 bumps in my upper lip that are noticeable when my mouth is open and do not feel as smooth as the rest of my lips. I went in 2 weeks after the injections were performed to massage them out but to no avail. They aren't too noticeable so I don't think it's worth dissolving the juvaderm. Are these bumps permanent? I've read that bumps that aren't massaged out can last for years and this worries me terribly. Can they possibly still be smoothed out?
