I had done my lips and straight after in the night I had fever and my lips are swollen, mostly my top lip feels hard but the bottom one is much better. Should I be worried ? It's been about 17hours after injections.

Answer: Swelling and fever after lip injections with Restylane
In brief it sounds like your physician has taken a careful approach. Better under filled than over filled and protruding. It's probably best to return and discuss with your physician whether you should have more filler at this time..
Hello and thank you for your question. Based on the photo you submitted, Restylane Refyne could be a good option for you to help symmetrize your smile and turn your oral commissures (the corners of your mouth) upwards so you have a more neutral expression when your face is at rest.
Thank you for your question and posting your pictures. The lips are very vascular and when a bruise does occur it can be fairly significant as in your case. It can sometimes take 2-3 weeks for the bruise to resolve. I suggest following up with your provider if you have further concerns.
