Can I accidentally displace Restylane Lyft by rubbing area only ONE time?

May 20, 2017
Asked By:jess040 in Denver, CO

I received Restylane Lyft in cheeks 2 full days ago. I noticed a hard lump had formed, got nervous and rubbed it out ONE time (30 seconds). Now I'm all nervous that I've displaced the filler due to the area feeling tender/more swollen (from me touching it). Is this possible or am I just freaking out over nothing?
