I had juvaderm in my lips yesterday morning. I have had a half done before and wanted the same. She put in more than I wanted. Now my upper lip is extremely swollen. I look like a duck, it's terrible. I have a massive bruise that goes all the way up to my nose. I have taken Advil and been icing but nothing helps.
