White, light bruises after Juvéderm in lips. Is this normal? (Photo)

PinkyT
Noticing a light hue to these bruises developing on lower lip 2-4 hours after injection with Juvéderm Plus. Is this just a normal start to significant bruising (I did have to continue an occasional NSAID regimen before injection for a health issue) or does it indicate the dreaded necrosis. Few sites discuss how long after injection and what exactly "whitish" appearance really looks like.
