I had a terrible initial reaction where I heavily bruised and bled during the procedures. The nurse didn’t complete the full .5 vile as she wanted to make sure I was ok and couldn’t tell what was swelling vs injection. Today the swelling has gone down but my upper lip is severely upturned and looks duck like with severe unevenness to the top lip. Is that swelling too? Or did she inject too high into the skin? When I smile my lip folds up.

Answer: Juvederm lip injections-post injection swelling and bruising Thank you for your question and photographs. Bruising and swelling are fairly common after lip injections. How much you bruise or swell can vary from person to person. I would recommend returning to your injector for an evaluation, two weeks from your injection, if you have an unsatisfactory outcome. Best of luck to you!

Answer: Improving Lip Volume with Lip augmentation with Fillers (Juvederm, Restylane, Volbella), Implants, Fat There can be some swelling and unevenness after lip injections which can last 1-2 weeks. You can apply firm pressure between two fingers on the lips for a few days, for 5 mins a time, in order to help decrease swelling and even out irregularities. If you're unhappy with your final results you can have it reversed with hyaluronidase and try a different technique next time. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: I got Juvederm lip injections yesterday - are these post results normal or did the nurse inject in the wrong areas Bruising and swelling are common after lip injections and can persist up to two weeks. It is best to wait until after that time to judge your final results. If you still have concerns after two weeks return to your injector for an evaluation.
