My lips look awful after Juvederm please help on what I should do? (photos)

Question

I got juvederm a week ago and the looked very knotty and uneven so I went back two days ago and doctor added one full syringe when I already had almost a full syringe he first time, now my lips look awful and uneven. My top look looks ridiculous and I want it to be about half the size it is now. My bottom lip looks awful but I am scared to get more injections. Is this normal?

It does appear that you have a large volume of filler in your lips.  I would suggest consulting with another physician and considering treatment with hyaluronidase.

John J. Martin, Jr., MD · Answer

You need to have some hyaluronidase to eliminate the Juvederm in the lips.  This will take you back to your baseline.  IF you get more lip filler in the future you should try a different product - either restylane or restylane skil.

Hey, looks you earned an A+ for effort.  However, your overall look is definitely an F.  It's time to start over, find a new injector, reverse the filler because and try again. Best of luck

Steven F. Weiner, MD · Answer

It is obvious the person that injected your lips is not a good injector.  This can be reverse with hyaluronidase.  I don't know if I would go back to that same person.  Hopefully there is someone else in that office that can reverse this problem.  If not, chalk this up to experience and go get it done by another office.  I like Restylane Silk for lips now.
