Is it normal to have uneven swelling of upper lip 3 days after lip augmentation using Juvederm? (photo)

Thank you for sharing your recent experience with lip filler. It is completely normal to see significant swelling for up to 2 weeks after your initial injections. The unevenness you are noticing is also normal and should settle within the next couple weeks. Icing the treated areas on/off may help the swelling resolve sooner. At the two-week mark, I recommend following up with your injector for evaluation. If you are still experiencing unevenness, your injector may recommend dissolving some of the filler with an enzyme called hyaluronidase. After injection with the enzyme, the unevenness should resolve within 24 hours. In the meantime, ice should help!

Hello IShape.Yes, it is normal to have uneven swelling after dermal fillers. This should get a lot better, but I always strongly suggest you see your injector 2 to 3 weeks after the injection to check on your progress. Best wishes, Dr. ALDO

A side effect of Juvederm in the lips is swelling and bruising- sometimes the swelling can cause it to look uneven.  Give it two weeks and return to your injector if you are unhappy.
