Is there anything I can do to help speed up recovery/bruising? I had Juvederm done 1.5ml 2 days ago. (Photos)

I had a small scar on my upper lip on the left hand side. When injected apparently my lip swelled up RIGHT away and turned instantly purple. It doesn’t hurt and I have been putting on Arnicare 4 times a day. The swelling has reduced as pictured above but I feel uglier than I did before. When she injected it to the top left lip (where the bruise/popped vessel is) it didn’t hurt anymore than the rest of it/ it didn’t hurt at all. I just feel so ugly right now.
