I had Juvederm ultra applied on my nasolabial folds. It seems the doctor injected too much (1 syringe), after 2 months I still feel the product under my skin and the visible puffiness. I have the opposite effect now, fist I had the deep wrinkle now after the injection the skin is raised....Is this effect normal? Will this puffiness go away after 1 year?

Answer: Juvederm Overinjection Treatment Options
If you are now two months out from you Juvederm injection and you have excess fullness at the treatment site then left untreated it will probably persist for the full 6 to 7 months. First, I recommend massaging the area with one finger or thumb inside the mouth and the other pressing firmly on the outside to help flatten the area. I doubt that this will be effective this late post treatment. Better yet, I would return to the injecting physician's practice and discuss having them inject HYALURONIDASE into the area. This will dissolve the entire Juvederm product over several days and then you will return to your pre injection appearance. Next time you get Juvederm placed they should inject it more inferiorly to help soften the fold and not to accentuate the bulge above it.

Answer: Juvederm puffiness and treatment.
As Dr. Smith said, this is easily reversible with hyaluronic acid. Return to your doctor and he can do this for you.
