I had juvederm xc injected in my lips 6 days ago and have a bruise that popped up 2 days after and not in the injection area. I'm also very bruised under my lips at the injection site. Can someone let me know if this is normal?

Answer: Bruising with injections This is normal for injections with fillers. Sometimes the bruises take a couple of days to come out. they will slowly resolve.

Answer: Juvederm bruising or blood vessel damage Thank you for your photographs and questions. Because of the thin nature of the skin of the lips, it is not uncommon to have some bruising that takes place after injections of JVD. The bruise on the upper lip may have been from gravity causing blood tracking through your tissues after the injections, if you laid down. At six days, you should be noticing steady improvement daily in your appearance. If you are not, visit your injector so that they can examine you. Additionally there are methods to try and minimize the risk of bleeding with future treatments, so discuss these with your physician as well.
