I’ve been getting filler done for year but tried a new lady yesterday and my bottom lip is painful and I can feel pain in my chin although it’s fine to touch. I have a bruise on my bottom lip but I usually bruise anyway. Is this normal as I never usually have any issues after having them done.

Answer: Discomfort after dermal fillers You don't say how long ago the filler was placed or what type of filler was used. Without pictures it is difficult to say if this is normal healing/swelling. You should contact your provider to discuss your concerns. They can best advise you.

Answer: Pain after fillers Some tenderness and swelling should be expected from filler injections. However, anything more than that and you should contact your injector. Significant pain especially in the lips could possibly mean an artery is affected. If this occurs you must seek immediate attention. So, tenderness and slight bruising is fine. Pulsating pain and blanching of the skin around the injected area, is not ok. "This answer has been solicited without seeing this patient and cannot be held as true medical advice, but only opinion.
