I got my lip done yesterday. my upper lip is way too bigger than my lower lip, I know there will be swollen going on for a while, but the swollen will go down by what percentage exactly? i dont look normal, what should I do?
Answer: Lip Filler Video: Swelling can last a few days
Yesterday is too early to do anything for it. Sometimes you can get more swollen if you were on blood thinners before your injections. It is a good idea to stay off blood thinners for 2 weeks before and after your procedure for fillers or other procedures that can cause bleeding (surgeries!). Don't worry, you can always inject hyaluronidase to remove these fillers. Your doctor can help with that. One common way of breaking up the balance in your lips is by making your upper lip bigger or close to the size of your lower lip.

Answer: Too much filler in the lips
I agree that you should wait about two weeks before deciding whether or not you have too much filler. If you have had Restylane, Perlane or Juvederm injected, a substance called Vitrase (Hyaluronidase) can be injected to dissolve the unwanted fullness. If you have had other types of fillers, it will depend on which type you have had as to when they will reabsorb and become less noticeable. Some fillers are even permanent. If you are unhappy with your results at 2 weeks, I would suggest discussing these issues with the physician who injected the filler.

Answer: Lip swelling can take a few days to go down after lip fillers So it does depend on which products and technique were used as well as volume used and whether or not you have had any other fillers in the lip before. Generally speaking wait at least a week before you revisit your practitioner for a review and any adjustments performed.

Answer: Swelling After Lip Injections Thank you for your question. It is normal to have some swelling 2 days after Hyaluronic acid fillers such as Juvederm and Restylane to the lips which can take up 2 weeks to fully resolve. To help reduce the swelling you can use cold compresses. Also, I recommend to avoid taking any NSAID’s before or after treatment as they tend to thin the blood leading to increasing swelling and bruising. As HA fillers are not permanent it can be dissolved with an enzyme known as hyaluronidase if you are unhappy with your results. Best of Luck!

Answer: Wait a week to ten days before judging the final result.
Wait a week to ten days before judging the final result. It appears that you have some swelling, which is expected. This will go down with about one week and then you can tell what you really have. If you are still concerned, go see your doctor.
