I got Juvederm filler in my lips 48 hours ago.I am very modest with it, and don’t even use a whole syringe. The dr used the same amount as last time, but last time I had almost no swelling and just a tiny bruise and my lips looked great the same day. This time my lips have swelled quite a bit. Yesterday, they were super swollen and have bruised. Today is better but what I’m concerned with is my smile. The two lumps on either side of my top lip. Not sure if it’s swelling or if I need to go back?
