I got 1 syringe of juvederm in my lips on Friday. This is my first time. Immediately after injection, i felt two hard lumps in my bottom lip. It is now sunday and ithey are still there. They are also numb. I also have two on my top lip that actually go up past the top of my lip toward my nose. Is this normal? Is it swelling or the juvederm. I have absolutely no bruising. Just these bumps. What should I do?
