No, this is unlikely. Allergies to Juvederm are extremely rare. Lip augmentations with fillers would be a great option to improve the fullness, suppleness and symmetry of the lips. I prefer to use a micro cannula to inject the lips to prevent bruising. I hope this helps.
Thank you for your question. The incidence of allergic reactions related to treatment with hyaluronic acid based dermal fillers such as Juvederm is extremely low. You should be just fine to proceed with Juvederm treatment.

I usually tell patients to take the day off and they can go back the next day, but you should ask your doctor.
The lips have a huge number of blood vessels in it, so it is not completely unusual to get a bruise in the lip during the treatment. You can help the bruise resolve by applying moist, warm compresses to the lip four to six times daily and the Bruise should disappear within a matter of days. ...
