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.

Thank you for your excellent question. The increased volume that fillers afford will make lips look fuller when patients have their mouth closed, but also when they are smiling or talking. Hope this helps.
From the picture it looks as if about a half syringe of Juvederm or similar HA product would easily give you the volume expansion of the upper lip. Make sure you request an upper lip block to avoid pain on the injection. Your bottom lip looks good. Thanks for your question.Dr....
