Do lips swell more from Restylane than from Juvederm?

January 4, 2019
Asked By:annongirl324 in Elmhurst, IL

I got 1 syringe of Restylane injected into my lips yesterday. I loved the result immediately after the procedure, but a few hours later, my lips swelled like balloons. It’s the second day and I have the duck look now, mostly in my top lip. I have had Juvederm injections twice before, more than a year ago, 6 months apart and they NEVER swelled like this before. The swelling was minimal barelt noticable. I start a new job Monday and am worried how I’ll look...
