Is this necrosis or bruise? (Photo)

This is one week after filler injection to the smile line. It appeared 12 hours after injection and no pain. It’s been the same size from the start.

Is this a bruise or Tyndall Effect. I had Juvederm fillers 10 days ago under my eyes. There is no pain at all. (photo)

This appears to be bruising. Arnica, icing and cold compresses may help. I would wait a full 2 weeks before judging the results. If it is after the two week wait, you can have the filler reversed with hyaluronidase. I hope this helps!

Thank you for your question. Two mls in one appointment is a lot of filler in the lip. I suggest one at a time spaced at least 4 weeks apart.  Best of luck to you!

There can be some swelling and/or lumps after lip injections which can last 1-2 weeks. You can apply firm pressure between two fingers on the lips for a few days, for 5 mins a time, in order to help decrease swelling and even out the lumps. If you're unhappy with your final results you can have...
