Everyone’s healing journey is a little different, and factors like the type and amount of filler used can affect recovery. Straight after treatment, your lips will usually look fuller than the final result. This is completely normal and happens because of initial swelling.
Swelling and light bruising are very common and usually settle within a few days. For some people, this can take up to a week, and during this time, your lips may appear slightly uneven. This is simply part of the healing process and not a sign of how your results will look long-term.
If swelling feels excessive or doesn’t begin to improve after several days, it’s always best to get in touch with your practitioner for personalised advice and reassurance.
