2 days after Juvederm lip Injections is this normal ? (photo)

Question

I had my lips injected with Juvederm 2 days ago not my first time but I’ve never had bruising this bad & it almost looks like a blood blister on the inside of my lip & also I have a little bit of bruising under neath my bottom lip on my skin .. is this normal or should I be concerned?

Camille Cash, MD · Answer

Swelling and bruising are common after lip injections and can take up to two weeks to resolve.  It appears your bruising is normal, but if you have further concerns follow up with your injector.  Intermittent use of ice during the first few days may help with swelling.

Ross A. Clevens, MD, FACS · Answer

Thank you for your question. Redness, bruising and mild swelling are common side effects after the procedure. Tenderness, lumps, discoloration and itching are side effects that can possibly occur, but are less common. While it appears that you are experiencing common side effects that should subside within 2 to 4 weeks, please feel free to review with your board certified facial plastic surgeon to ensure that you are recovering smoothly and correctly. 
Best wishes,

It is normal to have bruising and swelling after lip injections, but I would encourage you contact your provider/doctor about your post-treatment course.  Signs like significant bruising, swelling and pain could be reasons to seek the guidance of your doctor.  It is always better to be safe and go to see your doctor before it would be too late.

Martie Gidon, MD, FRCPC, FAAD · Answer

It is possible to have bruising that can last 1-2 weeks after Juvederm filler. If you are experiencing pain, please contact your doctor for assessment.

Hello - thank you for the photos. Your bruising looks quite normal to me and I don't think you should worry too much. Bruising is completely normal... A lot of trauma is done to the lips during lip injections. Take some all natural Arnica tablets to help the bruising heal faster.
Good luck!
