It’s been a week since I got lip fillers (juvederm). I have no history of herpes/coldsores as i was informed fillers can cause flare ups. I visited the injector yesterday so she could check things out and she said it looks fine and to keep a hot compress on and off it. It’s making me a little self conscious as it is visible. I’m also still just a little nervous that it could be something more serious and just want to get some other opinions.. Thanks!
