Is there anything I can do to get my top lip to not look like this? I have been icing quite frequently. Can I reverse the injection? I have an event tomorrow night. Will my lips still look like this? Please help!

Answer: I got my lips done yesterday and my top lip sticks out too much. I look like a duck. Please help Thank you for sharing your question and photographs and congratulations on your lip augmentation! Swelling after filler placement into the lips is quite common due to the thin nature of the tissues. This swelling, and your results, will steadily improve over the next 10-14 days. It often takes up to 2 weeks for fillers to soften and the tissues to appear more natural. In the meantime try reducing the swelling by using cold compresses to your lips and elevating your head at night with a couple of extra pillows behind your back. You may want to also consider using Arnica Montana and bromelain as supplements. Hang in there!

Answer: Lip swelling after injection Lips will swell for several days after lip augmentation. You need to wait 2 weeks to see what the final result is. IF needed, the filler can be removed with hyaluronidase. In general, though, patients are surprised on how much the lips go down after a few days. Patience! Hope you will be happy with the results.
