Please help! I had half a syringe of Volbella injected 6 hours ago mostly into my top lip and my lip has swollen up enormously! It feel hot and tender sore to move. Is this an allergic reaction? Is it infected? I am scared and not sure what to do. Thank you in advance for your advice

Answer: Swelling after lip injection Swelling is a very normal reaction to lip augmentation with filler. Applying ice will help. If it doesn't improve or you continue to be freaked out, call your injector and make an appointment to be seen in person.

Answer: Swelling after Volbella Thank you for your question lanakoh. I understand tour concern. Volbella is a hyaluronic acid filler designed to enhance the lips. Swelling is normal for 2 weeks after a treatment. I recommend that my patients apply cold compresses such as ice packs to reduce the swelling. Please consult with a doctor for specific recommendations. Good luck!
