I had Restylane on the sides of my upper lip a week ago. One side bruised extremely bad and the other has a small, visible knot. I'm afraid if I get the reversing enzyme, it will dissolve all of the filler. Should I wait it out or get it checked out now?
Answer: Lip filler bump causing a knot Lip filler bumps is fairly common after filler. The bumps can occur early on and many settle down. Although massage after filler is considered a mainstay, beware that massage can drive the filler into another location if done too early.

Answer: Is this lump on lip from filler or swelling after Restylane? (photo) As it is still relatively recent since your injections I would recommend waiting for the swelling to subside in order to see whether it is related to the swelling or not. Once the swelling subsides, if the lump is still there then revisit your injector.

Answer: Is this lump on lip from filler or swelling after Restylane? Swelling is very common after lip injections, I suggest you wait 2-3 weeks for the product to settle before you see your final result

Answer: Swelling after Fillers Sometimes you can be bruised or swollen or lumpy from fillers. Rather than rushing to have it dissolved it is best to wait two weeks to see if the symptoms resolve and you are satisfied with the results. If there are still lumps after two weeks then you should return to your treating physician who can dissolve the Restylane in that area alone.

Answer: The Lump After Restylane Could Still Be Swelling- Massage and Be Patient It's hard to tell at this point whether the bump is due to swelling or a bit too much filler. I would massage the area gently for 5 minutes twice a day, be patient, and re-evaluate it in 1 week. If it is due to too much filler placed into that one spot, it will be no better in a week and at that point you will have a decision to make; 1. You could try having your injector place a very small amount of hyaluronidase into the lump, hoping to dissolve the lump without affecting the rest of the filler, or 2. If it's not too bad you could just ignore the lump and enjoy the fullness you have overall. Good luck.
