Blood blister after lip filler, juvaderm - Do I need to be worried? (photo)

Question

I routinely get my lips filled and have had some things happen but not this. I bled instantly right after this injection point and didn’t think much of it but also knew it wasn’t totally normal. I have sat under two sessions of LED lights, arnica, you name it. Do I need to be worried? Will this be a permanent purple color you see the horror stories of? Can I make it go away faster? Help please?!

give it 2-3 weeks if still swollen and bruised, see an expert to evaluate the situation.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Hello. Thank you for your question. It is normal to bruise after an injection. You do not need to be concerned or worried. The bruise may take a couple weeks to go away but is not concerning.
