Can I use an arnica cream or gel directly on injected Restylane lip a day later?

Asked By:bonnieltrager in Temecula, CA

I can also see that my left side upper lip looks like there is a little more filler or is it just from the swelling ? The plastic surgeons office never rebooked me for a follow up . Should I schedule a follow up appointment?
