Using Multiple Dermal Fillers at the Same Time
Doing so is commonly referred to as getting a liquid facelift, and is a popular procedure. However, Juvederm and other dermal fillers should not be mixed together, or used simultaneously, on the same facial problem areas during the same dermal filler treatment session.
Practitioners are actually discouraged from mixing between brands unless enough time has passed between the treatments (six months). The concern about using different brands of filler together is that if there is a reaction, it can become difficult to establish which filler is responsible for the unwanted effect.
Juvederm® and Restylane® fill the wrinkles in by adding volume to each area they target. The different strategies make them work well together when they are combined. If it is done correctly, using both is a good way to reverse wrinkles at the highest level.

A Cosmetic Injector's Answer:
Over the next six to eight months after your lip filler is injected, your lips will slowly decrease in size and fade back to their original shape. The filler will metabolize fairly evenly, so you should never experience a malformed appearance.
Experiencing lumps in lips after injectable filler is extremely common—and lumps most often resolve naturally with time. Gentle lip massage 5-7 days after the treatment can help smooth any lumps and bumps in the lips.
The swelling that can often occur after Lip Fillers can cause the lips to look a little uneven for a short time. This doesn't necessarily mean that anything has gone wrong and it may just take a little time for the product to fully settle and for residual swelling to subside.
While the lifespan of dermal fillers can vary considerably between patients, depending on the product, your lifestyle and unique metabolism, Juvederm is the longest-lasting temporary lip filler with results visible for up to a year. Restylane comes in at a close second, with results lasting between 6-10 months.
The most common – and popular – type of filler is the hyaluronic acid-based (HA-based) filler. HA-based fillers are typically considered to be the “gold standard” of lip fillers because they produce consistent results, can be easily reversed, have a low risk of side effects and require no downtime after treatment.
Light, soft, hyaluronic acid fillers, like Restylane®, give the lips the most natural and attractive look.

Swelling – After undergoing fillers, it is normal for the lips area to look uneven due to swelling. This is normal and does not necessarily mean that something has gone wrong. It is also important to note that the lips have a lot of nerve endings and are more sensitive than other areas of the body.

Although extremely rare, dermal fillers are able to migrate within the skin if consistent and adequate pressure is applied to them. For this reason, we advise patients not to get a facial, massage (on the treated skin), or microdermabrasion for the first two weeks following their filler injections.
