After the 3rd day and before the 7th day post-injection, I recommend massaging any area with a visible bump, excess fullness, or asymmetry, several times a day, until it smooths out. This massage can be performed with a fingertip or the tip of a Q-tip.
Will Restylane bumps go away? Restylane injections can have lumps or bumps that show up after the treatment, but they disappear within a couple of weeks. If the bumps do not resolve themselves within one month, your provider can use hyaluronidase to dissolve it.
While massage can sometimes improve mild symptoms such as moderate lumpiness or slight asymmetry, don't perform massage on your fillers unless instructed to do so by your plastic surgeon or injector.
The first step to massaging lip filler bumps is patience. Before starting any massage, we suggest waiting until you are 5-7 days post needle injections.
Generally, any lumps or bumps that appear after fillers will disappear on their own within one to two weeks. Give the treatment a couple of weeks to improve, applying ice regularly.
Answer: Care for bumps on Lips from Restylane
Small bumps after fillers can smooth out and go away in 2-3 weeks. I do advise clients to massage them gently as long as they are not painful.
Thank you for your question, Massaging your face will not cause your fillers to disappear and massaging a lot may interfere with your final results. However, if you are unhappy with your filler/Botox results after two weeks, you can have the fillers dissolved with hyaluronidase.
In some cases, we recommend our patients massage their fillers following treatment to smooth them out below the skin; however, too much massage too soon may cause the filler to migrate slightly.
The most common cause of lumps after a filler treatment is swelling and bruising from the injections themselves. These should naturally subside within the first week.
Answer: Massaging away Restylane or Juvederm.
Don't massage too hard. This can cause damage to nerves and blood vessels and can cause bruising. If you feel there is simply too much filler and massaging will not be sufficient, injection with hyaluronidase will do the dissolving.
Whilst it is somewhat normal to feel small lumps, depending on how thick the filler used was), if they feel one lump in particular, they can gently massage it in between their finger and their thumb, over a period of time, and it will help to “break down” the lump.
Answer: Restylane and Bumps Under the Skin
Sometimes bumps under the skin is caused when the injector pushes on the plunger as the needle is being withdrawn. If the product is placed superficially (close to the skin) than you will see a bluish tint, this is called the Tyndall effect.
Like many other dermal fillers, it will take at least one to three days for Restylane Lyft to settle into the skin. During that time, you will need to follow specific instructions so you don't disturb the filler.
Fillers remain moldable for 1-2 weeks, and pressure can deform your filler.
Migration of Restylane: Restylane may migrate from its original injection site and produce visible fullness in adjacent tissue or other unintended effects.
DON'T: massage your lips.
Massaging freshly injected lips risks moving the filler around causing the possibility of desportation and undesirable results.
The Results Improve Over Time
Because these injections stimulate your body's production of collagen and elastin, the final results of treatment won't be seen for several weeks. Even as the hyaluronic acid is processed by your body, healthy collagen and elastin grow at a more significant rate.
The good news is that there is a medication that can be injected to dissolve the filler directly. Hyaluronidase is a medication that breaks down our bodies' natural and synthetic hyaluronic acid.
Will Results Improve Over Time? Absolutely! This injectable gives you improved results over time, unlike many other similar treatments. The active ingredient in Restylane works with the natural regenerative properties of your body, extending the results you'll see after treatment over the course of several weeks.
Answer: Hyaluronidase is used to dissolve Restylane
Hyaluronidase is an enzme that dissolves Restylane. It can lead to bruising and swelling, but the tissue should return to normal after a few days. Massaging the area where the Restylane has been injected may help move it out of the tissues faster.
There are many reasons lumps and bumps occur after a wrinkle filler treatment: The filler is injected too superficially. Too much filler product is injected into one area. The filler moves to create a large deposit in an area.
Swelling should go down within 2–3 days after your lip filler treatment, and should subside completely within 2 weeks post-treatment. In the meantime, there are some things you should do to help manage swelling and discomfort.
The distortion / unevenness are a result of the injections and swelling in the tissue. THIS IS NORMAL. It will subside and look natural over the next few days. ➢ Do not touch, rub or massage the treated area unless directed to do so by your medical professional.
