Lip filler occluded treated with hyaluronidase instantly but still in pain? Is this bruising or necrosis? (Photos)

July 7, 2017
Asked By:Lillyrosebud in U.K.

Had 1ml filler done Weds bottom lip occluded, hyalase was used instantly and colour returned. 2 days after woke up in excessive agony across the chin area, returned to clinic and have been given antibiotics and steroid course. Still concerned this is necrosis? I have small white pimples developing. Also my concern was that I have a chin implant inserted 6 years ago, could the hyalase have effected this? The surgeon thinks I have either had a reaction to the hyalase or too much has been inserted.

Raffy Karamanoukian, MD, FACS says:

Facial fillers using Hyaluronic acid can cause immediate swelling and uneven contour. The swelling usually subsides with time. I recommend applying Plato's Bruise Balm twice daily for a few days after injecting my patients. If the filler lumps do not resolve, then a small injection of Hylenex ...
