I had Juvederm, another Dr dissolved some areas then re-injected the area shown a week later (in Jan). Now, I have a puffy patch and a dark half moon shaped line... The Dr says that it's a long lasting bruise but another Dr consulted said that it's a 'sausage' with Tyndall Effect. Thoughts?

The swelling is symmetric and involves both lips and looks considerable and significant. Contact the PS who injected your lips for evaluation and possible treatment ASAP. If it were one part of the upper or lower lip it would have indicated a hematoma or large bruise but it involved both lips...
There does not appear to be any infection since you do not have any redness or pain. Wait another week and if you are still unhappy, return to your injector for assessment. If you feel there is too much filler there, it can be dissolved.
