I had Volbella 2 days ago. I think I had an allergic reaction?

I have not had a patient with an allergic reaction to Volbella. However, the lidocaine that is the part of the injection that numbs the area is another story. If you find that you feel better after the benedryl and steroids then no, I don't think that you need to dissolve the filler. I am so sorry that you experienced this. It must have been really frightening. 

Thank you for sharing your question and I am sorry to hear of your ER visit.  It is difficult to offer definite advice without a bit more information as to the timing of your symptoms as if the volbella was the cause you should still be having symptoms.  That said your injector is your best source of reassurance and information to help determine if the Volbella was the cause and should be dissolved for your safety.  Hope this helps.

Thank you for
your question yeahrite. I am sorry to hear about your situation. Volbella
is a hyaluronic acid filler designed to enhance the volume, definition, and
shape of the lips as well as to address lines on or around the lips. Volbella contains lidocaine to numb the area. Some patients are allergic to lidocaine and symptoms can be more severe if it is ingested accidentally. Please follow up with
your doctor for specific recommendations. Good luck!
