Asked By:Lman2170 in Newcastle Upon Tyne, GB

I got my lips done 4 days ago with 1ml. My top lip seems to have 2 balls either side fromtge centre and the top middle lip is starting to split and it hurts. Top lip is biggerthan bottom. Bruises & more bruising as time goes on, lips are looking worse as and don't feel right. Hurts to eat, drink, smile or talk without feeling like my lips are going to split open with pressure. Is this necrosis. My lips have been shedding loads, looks like a milder version of exfoliative cheilitis. Very worried
