Residual filler? Granuloma? Fordyce spots? If I peel up lip & look VERY closely at bottom of bubble can see tiny white spots that look like fordyce? Also is indentation at the top border and darker color scar tissue, or loss of natural collagen due to the dissolving? Am worried about continuing to dissolve given what I've read. I sent a pic of bubble to my injector and she said it was "normal" & would go away. I have plans to get refilled in the coming weeks but not sure what to do. Thank u

The edema and excess filler should be reversed if that is your preference. I do this all of the time in my office but use a HIDEF approach that gradually reduces volume in order to exact the results.
