Hello, I had lip fillers done last year 2017 October. I had no problems - apart, each few month it gets swollen. Now, 12 months passed from when I had it done and tonight it got swollen quite a lot, and the filler inside gets hard now it is getting slowly back to normal. I don’t have allergies, no allergies to food and never had swollen lip before the fillers. Could you please advise me? Thank you

Thank you for your question and congratulations! If you weren’t pregnant when you had the filler injections then it poses no risk to your pregnancy. That said, you shouldn’t have any treatment while you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
Thank you for your question. Versa and Juvederm are both hyaluronic acid fillers. They are compatible together in treatment. It is important to wait two weeks following the first injection date to allow proper healing and assessment, before adding more filler.
Thank you for your question! Bruising is typical after injections and usually resolves before two weeks. Redness at the time of injection is common, but that should resolve after a few hours. I would contact your injector regarding redness that has persisted this long. Best of luck!
