Can Juvederm Cause Permanent Damage? How to Remove from an Area That Was Not Supposed to Be Applied?

October 26, 2012
Asked By:decadorio

I just got juvederm, and I can't look at myself in the mirror. I understand that it's still swollen, but I’m concerned that he injected it where was not supposed to. I no longer have a jaw line, and my face is completely round. I read some reviews here, and there is an indication of possible permanent damage due to the stimulation of collagen production. Is that true? I’m completely regretful. I went to remove a few expression marks around my mouth, and now I have a face that I can't recognize.
