Asked By:Babysroom in New London, CT

Had dermal fillers injected into my cheek areas either side of mouth just over a week ago to cover deep lines when I smiled In certain lights you can see very bumpy areas under the skin, like you can see where the filler has been put.I have been told by my doctor this is the normal settling process but am very worried as to what I should do next
