I had my Juvederm inected into my lips 2 weeks ago, returning for a follow up to correct the right side of my lip one week ago. On my top lip there are 4 ridges basically in the same spot on both sides. The middle section of my top lip sort of droops down and is causing quite a sever ridge next to the centre on the left (however there is signs of a bruise and the lump is relatively hard ) I am very concerned and unhappy about my results however i do not want to undergo anymore swelling or down time.
