I had a full syringe of Juvederm Ultra Plus XC injected and now I see no change and I have lumps (Photo)

kjames21May 13, 2018
I had a full syringe of Juvaderm ultra plus XC a little over a week ago and I see no difference between before and after. They looked amazing then the swelling went down and there was nothing left. I have added photos. Also I have “lumps” below my lip line and I am wondering if this is normal? The lumps are starting to go down, but will it happen again in the future? Should I try to have it done again? Would it be best to try a different product? Any help Is appreciated!

Thanks for your question. It does not look like a vessel was involved, but photos are not a substitute for a good physical exam. I suggest you keep following up with your doctor.

Hello and thank you for you pictures! It looks like there may still be some swelling from the injection. Normally, it can take up to two weeks for any swelling to go down in order to see the final results. If you are still unsatisfied with your results, I recommend you return to your injector or...

Exfoliation and moisturizing will give improvement, but it can take up to 2 weeks for final results with lip fillers. I would wait a full two weeks before assessing your results. If you're unhappy with your result, you can have the filler dissolved with hyaluronidase. Hope this helps.
