I had Juvaderm, one syringe injected on marionette lines, from lip to lower part of my chin. I'm 47. This was my first experience with filler. It's been 5 days and I have 3 pea size lumps that are not going away. I am very worried about this. Has anyone else experienced this? Will it stay? I am no longer in the area that I had the procedure and the next clinic is about 8 hours away. I live in a very remote area.
Answer: Lumps after filler injections Hello. Thank you for your question. It is normal to have swelling and lumps for up to 2 weeks after filler. I would not worry about the lumps or swelling at this point. As the swelling goes down they should even out. I would recommend giving them a full 2 weeks to settle in completely. If you are still unhappy at 2 weeks, call your injector to discuss your options. You can always dissolve the filler with a product called hylauronidase if needed. you could massage the lumps lightly several times a day to help even them out. Good luck!

Answer: Textured lumps after Juvederm injections 5 days post treatment. Yes it is normal to have some swelling and possible lumps and even bruising. Juvederm is a hydrophilic once injected it does attract water which in turn causes the reactions. You can lightly massage the bumps to help soften and smooth them. If after 2 weeks the bumps are still a concern, seek consultation with your attending physician. He can assess the area and if he or she needs to treat the area with hyaluronidase.
