What is the clear jelly leaking from my lips after Juvederm? (Photo)

SamLuz
I had juvederm lip injections about 2 weeks ago. I had noticed a small black dot on my upper lip and I just thought that it was some bruising from the injections. It did not go away and started to get a little bit bigger. This evening a small amount of pus (I think) came out of it and I continued to squeeze and a large amt of jelly like fluid is continually coming out. Is this the juvederm? What should I do? My doctor's office is not open until Monday.
