It has been two weeks since I got my lip injected with restylane, when I went back to check up my doctor just gave me a little more on one side to "even" it out and told me to massage the bump I had on the other side of my upper lip. Well my lips still looks pretty bad in my opinion because one side is lower due to the bump as you can see in the picture. Any solutions to this?

Answer: Bumps After Restylane
Everyone reacts slightly differently to having cosmetic injections. Some bruise and swell more than others and for longer than others. And it is also possible to have uneven swelling. Another possibility is that product was injected improperly. As the doctors below advised, I also advise you to wait for a total of 6 weeks after the procedure for all swelling to resolve. If the problem persists, you can ask your doctor to dissolve the Restylane.

Answer: Restylane and lips
It can take up to two weeks or longer sometimes for swelling to subside, especially in lips. Making adjustments prior to allowing this time is sometimes not indicated. Follow up with your provider or go to another if you're not pleased with your treatment.
