Swollen lymph node after Stylage M lip filler - normal? 5 days p.o.

V
vaceAug 8, 2018

I received 0.8ml of stylage m. Very minimal swelling, pain and bruising. 5 days have passed and everything feels great and healed (except very slight tenderness at injection site) My only concern is my right lymph node under my ear is VERY swollen and tender. It’s been swollen since the day after I received filler (total 5 days) with no improvement. Should I be worried ? I wasn’t sick at the time of my appt and I feel totally fine except for the one swollen lymph node. Help - thanks

I would see no harm in having lip fillers and eyelash extensions a month after a hair transplant.  Those procedures should not affect one another.

The answer will depend upon your current situation. If your rash has resolved, and you've been off the cream for a while it should be no problem to get the fillers. If the rash is still there then first we'd have to determine what caused that rash and how to appropriately treat it.  ...

Thank you for your question, in most cases there can be some swelling and/or lumps after lip injections which can last 1-2 weeks. I usually recommend my patients to apply firm pressure between two fingers on the lips for a few days, for 5 mins at a time, in order to help decrease swelling and ...

You would get a nice improvement with lip fillers. These fillers, (Volbella, Restylane, Juvederm) are good to create a symmetrical lip. Nova threads can be used to improve lift and shape. Implants or fat are alternatives. Technique will be important here, so you'll want to see someone meticulous...
