What are these bumps on the inside of my lips and MORE.

Bumps
Mar 16, 2018

Hello Cuhboom,Thank you for your question and pictures. Now, Juvederm causes a generous about of swelling after you have been injected. I usually like to tell my patients to gently massage their lips to get the bumps out and to apply light cold pressure for the first 48 hours. After the 48 hours, you can start applying light heat to bring down any bruising. I would wait until the 2 week mark because that is the typical timeline in which the swelling goes down. If you are still concerned, I…

If bumps/lumps are still present after the two week mark I would advise to see your injector with any concerns you may have. Best of luck!
