And i can feel between my nose and cheek on top of the injected area like some sort of a mass but it feels that is spreading up is that normal?

Hello and thank you for your question. We would always recommend a face to face consult and in this case its vital you contact your injector and have an assessment with them. This could be normal or it could be something more serious that needs intervention.
We hope that answers your question. Best wishes

Hi there!
Thank you for your query.
Swelling and redness following filler injections is very common. You should allow up to 10-14 days for this to subside. If you are still worried after this time you should revisit your practitioner for a review. In the meantime ice and arnica tablets can help to reduce swelling.
Hope this helps!
Best Wishes,
Dr. Rupert

Some swelling is common after Juvederm.  It can persist up to two weeks.  Sometimes gentle massage of the area or cool compresses are helpful. If you still have concerns or the symptoms worsen, contact your injector for an evaluation.

Hi, thank you for your question. Some redness and swelling is normal post injection. I recommend applying ice/ cold compresses to the area. If these symptoms are worsening, then I would contact your provider. I hope this helps. Good luck!

Some swelling and redness is normal after filler treatment. If you have pain or the swelling and redness are worsening, then I would followup with your injector.
