It is 5 day after my first Juvederm injections but I am a little concerned on the lasting effects. My top lip has bumps in the front which you can see more when I smile and speak. It looks totally unnatural. Is this normal? Also I read that massaging might help, and if so how often and how long? I can not go out like that, I am ashamed :(

Juvederm can swell up to two weeks after your injections. i would ice and take antihistamines for the swelling and wait to see the final results. Please consult a specialist for the best cosmetic results. Best, Dr. Green
