I got Juvederm lip injections yesterday - are these post results normal or did the nurse inject in the wrong areas? (photos)

Asked By:Loving1161 in Los Angeles, CA

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.
