Can I get filler again? (Photo)

July 16, 2020
Asked By:achaudoin in Monterey, CA

I got lip filler for the first time in February. I was injected with Restylane Defyne, everything went well, and I loved the results. Five months later they started to become tender, swollen, hard and bumpy. After a couple visits with my injector, she told me that I had late onset inflammatory reaction, which I kind of already figured. She told me it was the worst case she has ever seen and that my body had turned the filler into hard nodules in order to protect itself from the "foreign body"...
