I had my lips injected with Restylane 2 weeks ago, and decided I would like a little more injected. Or will it be slightly less since the area has already been injected?
Answer: Swelling after lip injection is unpredictable Thank you for your inquiry. Each person heals and recovers differently, and you may have no side effects this time, even if you did swell after your last lip injection. It can't be predicted. The lips typically take about 2 weeks to settle with the new product in them, so be patient with your results. Swelling is a common side effect after lip injections, especially within the first 24 to 48 hours, and it will subside. Knowing how to reduce swelling prior to your next injection may help avoid it altogether. Icing the lips immediately after injections and repeated sessions of icing on the lips for the first 24 hours can help relieve symptoms quicker. Elevated sleeping the first night is recommended to reduce any swelling in the face and lips. To get the best results, it is important to choose an experienced, qualified medical professional who is familiar with the latest techniques.
