The swelling is out of control after lip filler. Is this normal? (photo)
RealSelf actual patient comment:
I had lip injections yesterday, they were really painful after but not so much any more. The attached photos show before and after then what they look like now.
A.Sorry to hear about your adverse reaction to filler in your lip. You must return to your injecting physician for evaluation. Most likely you are one of the extremely rare patients who may be allergic to filler. Make sure that you know what type of filler was injected. You should inquire about a steroid shot and taking antihistamine for immediate relief. In the future you should have a forearm skin test prior to any filler injections. Good luck and be well.
