I had 1.1ml of Juvéderm in my lips on Friday 20th April. I understand there is an element of swelling & bruising to be expected however, allot of my swelling has reduced over the last 2/3 days, and have noticed my upper lip had a real bulge in the center where my Cupid’s bow is. The area is tingling and feels odd to touch, I can’t move my lip properly and it doesn’t appear to be settling as the days go by, unlike the other swelling I had. I am really panicking that this is a bulk of filler?
