I had lip fillers more than 2 months ago and i have fluctual swelling of my upper lip. After getting the fillers, everything was fine, i just noticed, that i had more swelling than other people for much longer time, but my doctor said it was normal. The filler used was Juvederm. It really bothers me now, because 80% of time i have slightly swollen upper lip. The other 20% my lips look exactly how i wanted them. I take isotretinoin 30mg, but it should not be the reason…
Answer: Lips I would suggest not getting any more filler for you may have a weak allergic reaction to the filler. More filler may give you a worse reaction. If you wanted, the enzyme could be given to remove most of the filler, or you can let it dissolve slowly over the next year.

Answer: Fluctuating swelling after lip filler Hello, and thank you for your question. Swelling can be very normal the first several days after injection. If swelling persists, this may be more of an immune system response. For immune responses, you could try an OTC antihistamine to see if this helps with the swelling. If it persists and is bothersome, you could have the filler dissolved and potentially try a different filler other than the product used. Although dermal filler is hyaluronic acid, it can vary in the “genetic” makeup of the product. I would suggest consulting with a healthcare provider that can further discuss and observe your concerns in person.

Answer: Swelling Hello adriannna! My name is Jessica, I am a physician assistant, and one of the providers at Shah Facial Plastics. This is a great question. Juvederm fillers are very hydrophilic meaning that they bring in a lot of water and can thus contribute to the appearance of swollen lips. I highly recommend scheduling an in-person consultation in order to better assess your areas of concern and discuss an appropriate treatment plan to help achieve your aesthetic goals. Our office phone number is: (312) 944-0117. I hope this helps and best of luck!
