How Long Do I Have to Wait to Get Another Juvederm Injection?

Hi chanel1986,

Repeat Juvederm injection may occur at any point after the initial treatment. Most plastic surgeons and dermatologist generally suggest waiting at least 2 weeks to allow the improvement of any bruising or swelling.

It is usually best to wait at least 2-3 weeks before reinjecting Juvederm in the same area.  The more Juvederm you had placed in last injection, the longer you have to wait.  Hope that helps!

This is the beauty of juvederm. It can be used as often as the desired result is achieved. Have fun!

Dear Chanel

I have to confess that I am not a big Juvederm for lip treatment fan.  I think the product is great and because of its "smooth"  character, lumps tend to work themselves out.  However, the down side of "smooth"  can be "drift."   Drift is a lack of tissue holding power.  In contrast, Restylane, a competing products is less prone to drift.  Product injected into the lip is much more likely to stay put.  In subsequent treatments, consider having your injector use Restylane instead of Juvederm for the lip.

There is no contraindication or reason you cannot go back to get additional Juvederm if you desire. That being said, I often caution patients to wait at least a week for the swelling to resolve to make sure they indeed need additional filler. I hope this information helps.

Hello
Many thanks for your question
We usually say around two weeks before another lip filler treatment. In terms of bumps - if it’s felt but not seen that is less worrying for sure. I would contact your injector for their advice. 
Hope this helps and good luck

Thank you for your question. I recommend waiting a minimum of 2 weeks before getting another injection of filler as you may have some swelling and bruising. I recommend contacting your injector with any concerns you may have. Best of Luck!

Great question and probably no definitive answer, only opinion. I recommending waiting 6 weeks between injections just to let all of the swelling go down before the next injection. In a demanding situation I will do it sooner, but don't advise it.It only requires a small amount to make a dramatic change thus 1 syringe may be all that's needed.I am opposed to using anything in the skin/lips that is "permanent" because of the complications. Juvederm XC Ultra and Restylane are my favorites.Finally I am on the conservative side when injecting lips. It is remarkable how many of my patients preface their comments with "I don't want lips like ......." meaning they look exaggerated and unnatural. There are refined techniques that allow natural but well defined lips without looking exaggerated.

In my practice, I suggest two weeks between Juvederm injections. Unfortunately there is no good way to tell if all of the swelling is gone except to wait a reasonable amount of time to ensure that it is gone. As to your bumps - as long as the filler is under the skin you will feel a lump or bump but if you see a lump or a bump, see your physician so that he or she can massage it out.

Firstly, If you have a "lump" it can be product, swelling, or a bruise. Wait until this resolves and all swelling is gone to add more product. A week is a good amount of time for this.
