Hi I was injected with Volbella about 2 weeks ago. The swelling has completely subsided now, only in the morning I can tell that they are more swollen than in the evening. My lips developed lumps immediately after the procedure. It’s been 2 weeks and they haven’t resolved, are these hematomas or something else? I don’t think this is just filler. Will they resolve on there own?

Answer: Lumps and bumps after 90% sure at this time frame that the lumps are NOT haematomas. More than likely due to excess filler. You have a choice that should be discussed with your expert injector. If lumps are seen- dissolve them. If lumps are FELT and NOT seen, you have the option of leaving them alone, as they will cause no harm. A conversation and assessment between you and your Specialist. All the best, Dr Davin S. Lim.

Answer: Lumps after filler to the lips The lips in particular can have lumps and bumps for some time. Especially if this is your first time getting fillers there. Those do not appear to be hematomas. They just appear to be either lumps of filler, which will smooth out or swelling from injections. Try to keep your hands and tongue away from the areas as pressing on them and playing with them will only make these continue. Leave the sites alone and if after 10 days things aren't resolved, see your injector.
