I had lip fillers 4 weeks ago & they hit a blood vessel.It was so painful for days My lip and end of my nose was numb for days.All seems to be healed 4 weeks later but where the bruise was on my Cupid’s bow is a red lump that is more obvs when I smile.who has done the fillers says she cannot dissolve yet as the area is still red.
