Two hours after procedure I have severe swelling in my lips inside and out. I thought the top lip would swell but not my lips. I have severe trout pout. Is this normal entry on lip line for smokers line. I had this done years ago and the lip was not touched. I'm concerned she has put some in my lips. Thank you.

Answer: Juvederm For Smokers Lines You still have significant swelling and bruising that may take up to 2 weeks to fully subside, but I think in the end you will still be overfilled. The entry point will vary depending on the location and depth of the lines and the technique of the injector. I think you were probably given too much filler. If a practitioner insists on using Juvederm for the smoker's lines then very little needs to be given as the product does pull in a lot of water. I usually use Restylane Silk or Belotero when treating this area for a far more natural result. Make sure you follow up with your injector. If you are still unhappy once the swelling and bruising are gone then it can be dissolved with Hyaluronidase.

Answer: Filler for lip lines Hi there! Juvederm is a product known for pulling in water once injected and swelling. For this reason, I do not use it in the lips. Also, when used really close to the surface of the skin to fill in lip lines, it can look blue in sunlight. That is another reason why I don't like it in the lip lines.My product of choice for wrinkles around the mouth are prevelle silk or restalyne silk. Best of luck!
