I had a Hyaluronic Acid yesterday on my lips, and I feel a lot of clums, or bumps, is this going to fade? I'm worried it would be noticeable in kissing for example, because when I feel my lips they are like very bumpy and uneven! :( ...Thank you for your help!!
Answer: Hyaluronic Acid Recovery Dear Sandra1313,With a Juvederm, Restylane or Perlane treatment there is hardly any downtime at all. Although, with lip treatments, there is a certain amount of noticeable swelling that can last for several days.I suggest you consult with your board certified facial plastic surgeon who performed the injections. Feel free to schedule a follow-up appointment to express your concerns.

Answer: Any suggestions for bumps and clumps in my lips? Thank you for your excellent question. Smaller bumps or clumps will usually dissolve over the first few days after filler placement, and can be aided with gentle massage. Larger ones may linger requiring a separate medicine to help dissolve them if they do not dissolve. Most fillers take about 2 weeks to see your final results, so be in touch with your injector should you have any additional questions or concerns.

Answer: Lumpiness after Juvederm Hello Sandra,It is very common to feel lumpiness immediately after filler injection depending on your injector, how much was injected, and the technique used. I recommend massage techniques to my patients to prevent any prolonged lumpiness if it develops but with the linear threading technique I use this is less common. As time goes by this lumpiness should soften up. I would recommend you wait at least 2 weeks for the swelling to go down and the product to settle before considering any injections of enzymes to remove the filler. I hope this helps and good luck.

Answer: Lumpy bumpy fillers in the lip It is not unusual in the first 2 weeks to feel some bumpies & lumpies (excuse the non-medical terms). Most will resolve on their own if you just wait, or you can firmly squeeze them between 2 fingers to bring down quicker or have your dermatologist assess. For the very uncommon nodule that persists past 2-3 weeks, we can inject a little hyaluronidase to soften and reduce it.

Answer: Bumps and lumps in lips will improve after a week It is still too early to be concerned. Try some very mild massage to the areas of bumps. If after a week there is still a problem, go back to your doc and see if it needs to be dissolved with hyaluronidase. I prefer using Restylane Silk for lips now because it naturally spreads and lumps are rare.
