Tenderness in cheeks 3 weeks after juvederm, is this normal?

am1111Jan 11, 2014

I got juvederm imbecylem ybree weeks ago in my cheeks, i still have a mild deep tenderness in my left cheek, I saw my doctor two weeks after injection and he said it could've been a hematoma... But I never had bruising, what is happenning? Should I get it dissolved? How would I know if I was getting a low grade deep infection?

Bruising and swelling are common side effects of lip injections and can last for approx 2 weeks. You will want to avoid ASA product, ibuprofen and alcohol up to 10 days before lip injections to reduce bruising. You can take arnica montana tablets or traumeel to help. Best,

Thank you for your question. It is advisable to wait 2 weeks before any additional injections. The 2 weeks allows for swelling to resolve. If the lump to the left of your upper lip is filler you may require aggressive massage or a hyaluronidase injection to dissolve the lump.Best,

Thank you for your question. It is not recommended to have injections when you are pregnant. I would be surprised if you found a clinic that would inject a pregnant person. Best,
