I just had juvederm injected into my lips today - second treatment because the first didn't make much difference. I only wanted injections in my top lip but because there was left over filler my nurse wanted to inject the rest into my bottom. About 2-3 hours the injection i bit my lip by accident and ever since then it has hurt a bit more, and it is much larger than the other side. Im not sure if when I bit my lip I moved the filler but it felt weird. Is this possible, or is it something else?
