When Should Numbing from Topical Cream Dissipate?

Kandie
It's been 4 and a half hours since I had juvederm injections in my lips for the first time. The doctor didn't do a dental block and only used numbing cream on my lips and around my mouth. My lips are beginning to regain some sensitivity by I am still numb around my mouth. Is this normal?
