Necrosis? Or normal bruising pattern?

May 27, 2016
Asked By:caspero in Bristol, GB

I had 1 syringe of juvederm injected into my lips last night. After about an hour, a mini white patch appeared on the upper right hand corner of my lip near the border. This went down subsequently and I got bruising inside my lip. I was unsure whether what I was seeing was normal so I called my injector but was unable to get a consultation with her as she is out of town. I went to a&e to get it checked out. They told me it was likely a normal bruising pattern but said they had little experience.
