Random overnight lip swelling after Juvederm -- is this an allergic reaction? (Photos)

lainey33
In April 2017, I had juvederm lip fillers done. Swelling went down after the first few days& I was left with a bump on my upper lip that wouldn’t go away. I returned to my doctor and she dissolved it with hyaluronic acid. Since my procedure in April, there have been 6 times my upper lip has swelled up overnight. Normally, I take an antihistamine & the swelling goes down within a few hours but this time it hasn’t gone down. Allergic reaction? Does it have to do with the juvederm or injections?
