Swelling on one side after lip filler (Photo)

September 8, 2016
Asked By:susan_1981 in London, GB

I had my lips done about 72 hours ago and haven't really experienced much swelling apart from on the left side. Yesterday, it was a hard lump but I've massaged it and it's now soft but swollen looking. Is it normal to have swelling only on one side? I had about 1ml in the top lip only.
