Asked By:courtx in Hull, GB

The professional said she didn't hit a blood vessel but I think she did? Really painful in the one area and my lip immediately bruised before even leaving the room where I had my injections done, I'm aware you need to wait time but this bruising shouldn't be so severe already? The bruise seems to have got smaller but darker. Lips have also become so dry the skin forms a white line across the lips when they don't have Vaseline on, should I get another opinion or leave the bruise to settle?
