Is it normal that Juvederm made me hate my lips? (Photo)

Thank you for your question. It is too early at 1-day post-treatment to determine what your final results will be as it takes up to 2 weeks for all swelling to resolve. You can apply cold compresses to your lips to help reduce any swelling and bruising. It is also advisable to avoid any NSAID’s such as ibuprofen as they tend to thin the blood and increase the risk of bruising and swelling. I recommend having a follow in 2 weeks with your injector for an evaluation. Best of Luck!

You have to be patient and give yourself a little time for the swelling to come down. after all said and done you will probably love your lips. good luck from New York City

Hello, it is common for lips to feel and appear swollen and stiff for approximately 2 weeks after dermal filler injections. Generally after this time the lips will settle, and feel and look much more natural, provided you have been treated by an expert injector. If you are unsatisfied with your results at the two week point I recommend you contact your treating injector and arrange a review. This should be free of charge. Good luck!

If you have seen a great injector the rule is this ' Hate your lips for two weeks, them love the look after'. Sounds corny, but this is true. If you look though out this forum, time and time again Specialists injectors will always say that it can take up to 2 weeks before your lips settle, and the full results are seen. Be patient, and if you had Juvederm by a expert injector with an eye for detail, you will not regret your injectables. All the best, and hang in there. Dr Isobel Walker. Fiori Institute. Brisbane.

Thank you for your question. After any filler, you need to wait up to two weeks to appreciate your full results. The swelling is normal and should subside with time. If you have further concerns about your treatment, you should contact the provider that did your injections. Best of luck to you!
