Hello docs I have had approx 2cc’s of Juvederm Ultra injected into my lips over approx 2 months. It had been over a month since my last injection. I am wondering if the upturn on my upper lip (raised lip line area, especially at Cupid’s bows) is avoidable. Wondering if this is a stylistic thing or something that is inevitable with fillers. Ideally (in my opinion) this would be a smoother transition between skin and lip. Any answers/feedback are much appreciated!

It does not appear that you have an infection at the injection site. However, it is not typical to have a burning sensation 3 days after treatment. I encourage you to return to your injector for an evaluation.
Vomiting is not a symptom that is associated with fillers. It is likely a coincidence that you had an episode of vomiting after your treatment. Other countries may have different standards than the US for their products and practices, so it is hard to comment on this without knowing more.
It is not uncommon to feel the filler at this point after treatment. It is due to swelling which typically resolves within two weeks of treatment. If you do not notice improvement by then, return to your injector for an evaluation.
