I got my lip fillers 1 week ago and my lower lip is still lumpy, uneven and there is a lumpy stripe (about 10 mm length) on the left vermillion border. I've been icing a lot and massaging them gently. It was showing a decrease on the 2nd and 3rd days but since then they haven't subsided at all. They are in the same shape. Is it normal? Will they be completely resolved?
