Answer: Stiff Lipped After Restylane When dermal filler is injected into the lips it is very common to experience the symptoms you have described. Swelling, bruising, the appearance of unevenness, and firmness will typically resolve with time. If after 3 weeks, you continue to experience any of the symptoms you described, I would recommend you schedule a follow up with your injector for assessment of the area and treatment options moving forward.

Answer: It is just a day. These services often take a couple of days to settle down. If this has not quieted down by next week, I would see your doctor about what you are seeing. Drinking water has no bearing on this service. I wonder if you have been over treated in the upper lip but it is honestly too early to tell.

Answer: Yesterday i had 1 ml of Restylane and my lips are looking uneven and stiff. Will this resolve itself? Helo Abir.Thank you for sharing your concerns. It looks about right on the photos - meaning right after injection and the next few days - swelling, asymmetry and stiffness is normal. Massage sometimes helps and sometimes it does not - it's better to check with your injector. Periodic cold compress, arnica and head elevation do help.Best wishes, Dr. ALDO :)

Answer: Restylane Question Thank you for your question! Lip injections have some "downtime" associated with them and stiffness, bruising, and "uneven" swelling is a part of that process. Try not to panic, and watch the filler as it settles over the next two weeks. If for any reason you have any uneven areas that do not subside, follow up with your injector as you can have additional product added, or the original product reversed. If you are not happy with your injector, consider visiting with a board-certified facial plastic surgeon's office for best practices in safety and efficacy, as well as ideal outcomes. I hope this is helpful to you!Be well,Dr. Todd Hobgood, MD
