Lump in lip still there 4 years after having filler. (photo)

RhysGMay 11, 2016
I had Juvederm 3, it didn't look natural at all she ended up going crazy in my already prominent cupids bow. I could also feel little lumps in the underside of my lips. don't think she had done many male lips before! I ended up going to my botox lady who dissolved a lot of the filler for me for free. 4 years later i still have two small lumps, I'm wondering is this filler or is this my own skin or maybe scar tissue that has surrounded it?

Hi Tatortot,  USUALLY it is completely safe to have both procedures performed in close proximity (even during the same day/visit). However, the type of chemical peel and the concentration (strength) of that peel are important. For example, if you plan to be having a more superficial chemical ...
