Swelling after fillers is very common (even in areas close to the injection site) and sometimes can last up to 5 - 6 weeks. If you are still have problems a month and a half after your treatment, contact your provider.
Please follow up with your treating physician for an examination and discussion of potential causes for the issue.
I would return to your injector for an evaluation. It is not contraindicated to fly after having a Juvederm treatment. It is best to speak with your provider to assess the symptoms you are experiencing.
I don't restrict my patients on flying and the swelling is not related to that. I'm not sure what the swelling is but I would discuss with your provider. It could be completely unrelated to the injection. I'm also not sure of the degree of the problem. You shouldn't have swelling after 2 weeks from filler in this area.
I would immediately return to your board certified treating dermatologist for evaluation. It may be sign of infection or other problem since there should not be swelling in an area that was not directly injected. Please keep us posted. Best, Dr. Green
I concur please return to your injector. If there is pain or increasing swelling you would be wise to seek urgent medical attention.
Please return to your doctor for assessment to see if the swelling is related to your Juvederm injections.
Fillers will mostly likely be gone after 1 year. Dissolving the filler is fairly safe and I wouldn't let fear of risks stop you is you want it dissolved. I would speak to your physician or another physician regarding how to improve your appearance and what options are best for each area...
I am not aware if the filler you used , But many people try different fillers together , but just to be certain, i would follow up with your injector
If you are unhappy with filler it is easily dissolvable. I would follow up with your treating physician and have it removed. Good luck
