Dips after lip fillers yesterday. (Photos)

Question

I get my lips done yesterday and today i saw little dip in my lips why is that happened?

Ross A. Clevens, MD, FACS · Answer

Thank you for your question. Most patients experience minor swelling immediately following fillers. Please remain patient with your final result as swelling tends to subside within 2 weeks. I suggest that you discuss your healing process with your board certified facial plastic surgeon and medical team.
Best wishes,

Hi and thank you for your question! I always advise my patients to allow two weeks following any types of filler injection (including lip filler injection) for all the swelling to completely resolve and the treatment results to fully settle in. At this time what you see can be related to the swelling and hence patience is the best approach. If after two weeks you still have concerns, you should do a follow up with your doctor, but I wouldn't be worried at this time. I hope it helps and good luck!

It's too soon to see what your final results will be. 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

Dear kyliestan,Juvederm has 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 do anything.Daniel Barrett, MD, MHA, MS

Thank you for your question. It is difficult to give you advice with seeing before and after photos. However, technique is very important when having lip augmentation, therefore you will want to see an expert. Some great fillers to help create a symmetrical lip are Volbella, Restylane and Juvederm. Another option to help improve shape and to create a lift is PDO Nova threads. I recommend having a consultation with an expert to discuss your concerns and determine the best treatment plan for you. Best of Luck!
