Answer: Side Effects of Lip Augmentation Patients typically experience some minor swelling that lasts a day or two. In rare cases, there could be minor bruising. Some patients bruise more easily than others. Some medications, if taken regularly, can increase the risk of bruising as well (fish oil, aspirin, vitamin e, etc.). Any bruising should be easily masked with make-up. Results are immediate, so you will notice instant improvement! Restylane can produce swelling in the lip as can Juvaderm since they are both hyaluronic acids and hydrophilic(water loving). This means that water is drawn into the area.This is usually a temporary problem that will resolve with ice, benadryl orally and time. Contact your provider if the swelling persists or if you have increased pain.#lipfiller #lipfillerswelling #RestylaneSILK

Answer: Uneven Lip augmentation Results with Fillers (Juvederm, Restylane, Volbella) It's too soon to tell what your final results will be. You have swelling, which can be asymmetrical, and last 1-2 weeks after lip injections. If you're unhappy with your final results, you can have it reversed with hyaluronidase and try a different technique next time. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Swelling is an expected and very common side effect after lip injections. Swelling is common and expected after lip augmentation with hyaluronic acid filler. Going to the gym may have made the swelling worse, but what you’re experiencing is normal. Ice your lip, keep your head elevated, and avoid strenuous activity until the swelling has subsided, which normally takes anywhere from a few days to two weeks.

Answer: Juvederm lip swelling Thank you for your question. It is very common for the lips to look over corrected or fake the next day. I often tell my patients that this is the "oh my gosh" day. This is due to all the swelling that ensues. It may last a few days with every day showing a decrease in swelling. The more you ice the first day or two, the less swelling you will have. I would wait a few days to a week and then return to your injector if you still have concerns after that. If you like the look of the lips at some point during the swelling reduction, then take a picture. This way you know what volume you like in the lips for the future.
