Answer: Sleeping position affecting Juvederm Thank you for your question. I am sorry you are experiencing this problem. As Dr. Yoo explained there is likely very little information out there regarding position and effect on your filler, and your are likely to receive different opinions. In my experience, it is highly unlikely positional changes will effect the placement of filler anywhere in your face including your lips. There may be increased swelling due to position but this will likely resolve over the next few days to weeks. Concerning your pain in your back, this may be due to the position your physician had you in while performing the filler especially if the procedure took an extended period of time. While this is unusual sometimes people tense up their necks and backs while having procedures done and that rigidity causes stiffness and pain later. It is more common in the next than back in my experience. Since you are in university and studying a lot, this stiffness may be compounded by the combination of the procedure and hunching over to study, making it particularly bad for you. If you are not improving, it is important to follow up with your physician, as neck or back pain can be a sign/symptom of some other underlying pathology.Hope you feel better and thank you for your question. Regards, Dr. Matthew Elias
