I had Restylane lip injections 2 days ago. All of a sudden my lips are so itchy but inside the actual lip. The man who injected made one incision on both sides of the lip and injected that way. Not all over the lip. It’s really uncomfortable. I took Benadryl and have no relief. I’m allergic to amoxicillin, penicillin, macrobid, sulfa, cipro, levaquin and nasid’s. I also have Graves’ disease if this helps. Thanks.
