Hello, it has been about a week since I had Juvederm lip fillers, and I'm noticing a dent in my left upper lip. I have looked into others experiencing similar issues, but there isn't much information about "dented" lips. I have an appointment with the board-certified doctor who performed the injections to discuss this, but any advice or insights on what might be happening would be appreciated. The first picture is before the filler, the second picture is right after the procedure, and the following photos are a few days later.
It is too early to assess your true result one week after having a lip filler treatment as swelling can still be present. We recommend a 2-4 week review to assess your result. Warm Regards,
Swelling is a common occurrence after lip injections and can take up to two weeks to resolve. Gentle massage of the area may help. If the swelling persists and bothers you, your doctor can use hyaluronidase to dissolve the product.
In the photo provided, it appears there is an excess of filler in the central portion of the lip, causing an indented appearance laterally. It is recommended to follow up with a board-certified dermatologist for evaluation and management. Options may include waiting for the swelling to go down, reversing the filler, or injecting into the indented area.
Unevenness or swelling after filler injections can usually be corrected with additional filler or dissolution of excess product. It is important to follow up with an expert injector for further assessment and adjustment.
