I got my lips done 2 weeks ago and I am concerned that I am still swollen. The injector injected in my Vermillion Border to bring out my top lip. I am worried because I've been taking arnica and icing and I feel like I shouldn't still be this swollen.

Answer: Swelling after filler Hello, and thanks for your question.In my experience, swelling after lip augmentation tends to last 1-2 weeks, but I have rarely seen it last a little bit longer. At this point you are most likely seeing fullness from the filler itself. If you're truly unhappy with your result you could have the filler dissolved with injection of an enzyme called hyaluronidase. I therefore recommend that you follow up with the physician who performed your procedure. To maximize the likelihood of a favorable outcome, I recommend that you only get treated by a well-trained and experienced dermatologist. There are a number of us here in Santa Barbara.Hope this opinion is helpful to you. Best of luck, Dr. Frucht.
