After Juvederm, if I'm a little lumpy 3 days later, do I need to see my doctor?May 06, 2011 Dr. Irwin,
I had Juvederm in my marionette lines three days ago. The right side looks great, the left is still a bit lumpy. Should I worry, is this normal? Or, do I need to go in and see the doctor?
Generally, I ask my patients to wait 7-10 days before calling our office. This is because there is a some natural evolution of the product for about a week. 3 reasons - it absorbs moisture from your own tissue and expands a little, tiny natural shifts in placement occur, and occasionally some deep bruising that you may not see. Sometimes, however, your provider may have just been a little off with the injection (it's happened to the best of us). So, if it still doesn't look even at about a week, for sure call! It's easy to fix Juvederm/Restylane problems. See my recent article on how to fix Juvederm mistakes. Dr. I |
