Thank you for sharing your excellent question. It often takes up to 2 weeks for fillers to soften and the tissues to appear more natural. In the meantime try reducing the swelling by using cold compresses to your lips and elevating your head at night with a couple of extra pillows behind your back. You may want to also consider using Arnica Montana and bromelain as supplements. Hang in there!
Swelling can last up to 1-2 weeks after lip injections. I recommend seeing a filler expert for the best results. Lip implants or fat can also be used for a more permanent solution. Best, Dr. Emer
Swelling post lip injections can last up to 1 or even 2 weeks. After 4/5 day’s you should start seeing some normality return. It is advisable to give at least a week before you see your final result.
Thank you for your question. Bruising and swelling is a common side effect of lip injections. It can take up to two weeks for all swelling and bruising to subside. Icing the area will help reduce some of the swelling. Arnica is also helpful for minimizing swelling and bruising.
Swelling really depends on the type of filler used! Volbella hardly swells at all, it is smaller, and absorbs less water- perfect for fine lip lines, Juvederm Ultra Plus may swell a bit more than Juvederm Ultra, but worth it for the extra fluff if you want it! Avoid aspirin & ibuprofen to help avoid bruising, and definitely use ice before & after!
It will last up to about 1 week in some cases. The majority of the swelling is done after a couple days. After about 10 days, the lips are at their size that will last the next few months.
Thank you for your question. After lip augmentation with a dermal filler such as Juvederm, it will take 2 weeks to allow for normal postprocedure swelling and bruising to resolve and to see your final result. Icing is beneficial for up to 48 hours after the procedure in order to help minimize postprocedure swelling. Arnica is also helpful for minimizing normal postprocedure swelling and bruising. Hope this helps and best wishes!
Dear niemanla:Swelling of the lips after filler injections normally subside between 1-2 weeks after procedure. Best wishes.
It can take up to two weeks for the swelling to subside after lip injections. Using ice on the area afterward is helpful. If you have bruising you may consider using the supplement Arnica to help with that.
Depending on the type of filler used, swelling after lip injections can last up to a few weeks. I recommend waiting at least 2 weeks before deciding if you like the results or would like to add more product, etc. for this reason.
