Is it from the filler? I got my lips filled with Juvederm 3 months ago and hadn't kissed since having my lips done. Yesterday I had a mild kiss and my lips immediately bruised! That has never happened to me prior to getting lip filler so I'm confused especially being that this kiss wasn't intense at all. Could this be from the filler?

Hi Taylor. There is no need to panic, but it is a concern that your lips were originally fine post injection and are now starting to get sore and swollen. There is a rare but recognized delayed reaction to fillers and this might be happening to your lip filler. It also could be...
Both fillers are safe to inject at an interval after the other - both being hyaluronic acid will not interact. It's usually on the the different fillers containing collagen that arent safe to interact with HA fillers unless there has been 3 years since the last collagen injection.
I'm sorry to hear of the issues that you are having since your filler treatment. While the reaction you described is uncommon, it can occur in some patients. When you are ill and start to experience swelling it is best to have it treated by your PCP. If desired the filler can be dissolved.
