Lip is swelling months after lip injections. (Photo)

Asked By:valhallacombo in Sarnia, Ontario, Canada

I got belotero in my lips back in May, and this is the third time my lips have swollen up out of nowhere. I go to bed and everything is fine, and then when I wake up, just one side of my top lip is swollen. It's really sore and hard feeling too. I'm not allergic to anything and I'm not using anything different on my face or lips or eating anything different. When this happened before I went back to where I got my lips done and they said it was probably an allergy. I honestly don't think it is.
