I had Juvederm lip injection yesterday and my lips look very fake. Will it get better in time?

Asked By:polinahal in London, KY

Yesterday I had Juvederm injected into my lips, it's been 20 hours since and my lips are huge, slightly unproportional and looking very fake.I asked for a natural look and I was quite happy with the look right after the procedure.Now I'm worried my lips will stay that size and shape ? I look awful and I am so embarrassed to let anyone see me like this. I apply ice every 2 hours for 10mins, but doesn't seem to be helping much.On top of that, I have diarrhea (excuse details)but I'm truly worried
