After lip fillers, 6 days later, my bottom lip has healed beautifully, the right side of my top lip is also fine but the left side seems to have a big puffy bubble under the surface. It is not a hard lump, it is very noticeable and is soft and puffy. And makes my lips Look lob sidded. I've had my lips done before and this has never happend. All bruising and swelling seems to be healed. Please help x

Answer: Uneven lips after augmentation
It can sometimes take a few weeks after a lip augmentation for swelling to completely resolve, so you are definitely in the normal window for persistent sweliing. Wait a few more weeks to see if it improves. If your upper lip remains uneven, revisit your physician to have it evaluated. You may need simple massage, or addition of more filler to even out the asymmetry - if necessary, the filler can also be dissolved (assuming a hyaluronic acid filler) with hyaluronidase.

Answer: Uneven Lips after Augmentation
Although uncommon, you can see uneven swelling after lip augmentation with Juvederm or other fillers. Occasionally this is due to some fluid retention within the lip. It can also be some unevenness in the actual Juvederm. I would definitely return to your injecting physician for evaluation. This may be corrected by some light massage or waiting a little longer. If it is from uneven Juvederm, a slight touch-up injection may help. I prefer to wait at least two weeks after an augmentation before evaluating the need for further enhancement.
