I have lumps in my lips 7 months after having Juvederm injected around my lip line. Am I having an Immune System reaction?

Luppylip
Literally over night I had a bump appear on my lower lip. I thought it was a cold sore so I began taking Acyclovir. The bump was not painful at all. After a week I began to get 2 more bumps in my top lip. I went back to the nurse who injected the Juvederm. She didn't believe it was the Juvederm, but injected the 3 bumps with Vitrase. No improvement. I went to my Dermatologist and she injected with Steroid. 50% better until this morning. 2 more bumps overnight. What can I do?
