A month after lip filler and dissolver... lips look terrible! (Photos)

Question

I got lip fillers 4 weeks ago. Immediately I knew one side was asymmetrical but thought it may be swelling. Two weeks later, she put a bit of hyaluronidase but no change. My lips look great when they are closed and I smile but when I talk or have my mouth open, they look unslightly because of the bump. Injector said it may be excess skin being pushed up by the filler? Could it be a mucous cyst? I want to keep my new lips but without this unsightly bump.What is this bump and what are my options?

Dear Goldengirl,Thank you for your question.
You have very beautiful lips.
This is a case that just requires hylase injected in the right spot, with the right dose. So fret not. Visit an experienced injector to have it fixed.Hope this helps.

Based on your description it sounds as if you have lumps from the filler being injected into the lips.  It may take a repeat course of Hyaluronidase to dissolve the bumps and I would recommend consulting an experienced dermatologist who specializes in cosmetic lip injections.  Best, Dr. Green

Hello, 
So sorry that you are having issues.  Most likely very little of Hyaluronidase was used, otherwise you can lose all the HA in the area including some of your own.  This is a fixable issue you are having, please see a experience provider who can help you settle the product or help you hide the lump, if you don't eventually is will settle but may take few months.  Hope that helps, Dr Violetta Mailyan.
