How Can I Reduce the Lip Filler in my 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.

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.

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!
