Hi, I had Restylane injected into my lips in Feb and I developed small lumps that are noticeable only when I smile. I want to have 1 ml added by late June. Do I have to get the lumps removed( will they get filled with more filler if I add more to my lips) or can the docs add more filler without causing them to fill up more? If I do have to remove the lumps, how many days before my next lip filler treatment should I have this done?
Answer: Lip Augmentation Hi @Liana_388. I would recommend dissolving the lumps prior to adding more filler. I would dissolve 1-2 weeks prior to treatment. I recommend seeking treatments from expert injectors who have the skill and experience to precisely inject fillers into treatment areas and avoid risks and complications. Best of luck, Dr. Nima!

Answer: Improving Lip Volume with Lip augmentation with Fillers (Juvederm, Restylane, Volbella), Implants, Fat Thank you for your question, most Doctors will start with one-syringe to avoid over-filling. These fillers, (Volbella, Restylane, Juvederm) are good to create a symmetrical and full lip. PDO Nova threads can also be used to improve shape and also provide lift. Fat or implants are a permanent alternative. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Should I have the bumps removed after injection of filler or leave alone? Thank you for sharing your question. You could either leave the bumps alone and add filler around the bumps. It will not make the bumps worse. You could also have the bumps dissolved and then immediately refill. Make sure an experienced injector perform your treatment. Good luck!

Answer: Restylane Thank you for your question. It is safe to re inject after 7 months. Bumps tend to go down within a couple months.

Answer: Adding filler with lumps still present Unfortunately, it is very difficult to advise you without at least a photo or two to understand your specific concerns. I would strongly recommend you discuss these concerns with your injector or with a board-certified plastic surgeon who is also an expert injector. In some cases, the filler should be dissolved to eliminate the lumps before adding more filler. Other times, it might be okay to add the filler while the lumps are still present. If dissolving the filler is your best choice, the process usually only takes a day or two and you can get more filler injected within a week.
