i got a perline injection and though i liked the results my lips were not as full as i had hoped for so about a week later i got a juviderm ultra plus injection to achieve more fullness. i love the results after the two vials were applied. it was the perfect amount to achieve fullness in the lips and get rid of the smile lines.

However 36 hours later my right side is a little swollen, red and with some pain between my nose and cheek. My question is this a common reaction. my right side cheek is red and kind of irritated. will this go away in a few days. how do i know it is not infected?

I have had Perlane injected and it's red, swollen and sore. I know swollen was the look I was after, but this hurts. I can see the lump but have been told it can happen and nothing to do! Try Hirduroid cream, although I haven't had success. I', disappointed as I got told it was a non-irritant with no sensitivity test needed.
