Hydrelle Lip Injections - When Will This Nightmare End?!?!

Permanent damage
$500
I still have scar tissue in my lips approx 7 years later. There is a lump where the skin was stretched on one side of my upper lip that ironically enough resembles when filler is injected poorly and leaves a lump but it is not from product. Mostly visible when I mile. I have to get it smoothed out with fillers. Well, I don't have to, but I do choose to. After moving round and having o find a new doctor a few times I've often better a doing my research and picking someone who is professional, experienced, and qualified. I was much younger during this first experience and looking back so chose the wrong doctor. The allergic reaction was just bad luck but I never saw him again personally, jut the nurse for follow up when the reaction happened and thy never injected the product that could have just dissolved the filler probably to save money hen I clearly was having a severe reaction. I had follow up issues with another procedure from this dr and long story short do not just go to the first dr you visit, do your homework, and trust your gut! Side note, after using a few other fillers my current favorite is by far restlane silk for the most natural result.

It is now 18 months later and when I smile big and stretch my upper lip against my teeth I can still see tiny lumps under the skin where the product has not dissolved and is not spread even. I believe it is only noticed by myself when inspecting closely in the mirror still something to be said for still having complications this far out, almost 2 years later!

I actually have had great reactions to Hydrelle. It works better than anything I have tried and lasted so much longer than the others. Sorry you had a bad experience everyone.

There is a thing called Biofilm infection which caused a reaction that sounds similar to yours. It was not a reaction to the filler itself but to an antibiotic resistant bacteria. A very credible Reviewer dug deep to try to identify her issues (after using fillers with no problem) and her story is on Real Self at https://www.realself.com/review/new-york-ny-disastrous-result-injecting-restylane-tear-troughs

My lips returned to normal after being drained about 3 times. I was severely swollen for about 3 or 4 weeks total and it was not a fun time - very painful! Once every few months there is one little spot where I know there is still product that will become irritated for a few days. Not enough for anyone to notice but me. It's been almost a year now so it will probably go away completely soon. (I hope) Once again though, stay away from this product, it's dangerous.

Please have her contact my plastic surgeon. His name is Dr. Charles Lee. He is in San Fancisco. His number is 414-933-8330. I have a law suit filed against hydrell & Anika. Dr. Lee has helped me get rid of the noduels using a disoving injection that has to be done 2 times a week. Very painful, but they are gone. I have 2 small scars from it, but it'd better than the alternative. Hydrell has also gone bankrupt. Please please have your sister call dr. Lee.

Hi, I too had Hydrelle and 6 weeks later developed huge abscesses... 15 of them on my face. After draining them my dermatologist subscribed Singulair to reduce my mast cell activity in the skin. I'm happy to say that within a few days all of the swelling was gone, and hasn't returned. Good luck to you all going through this.

Wow!
Thank you for posting this!!
As I continue with my research on lip augmentation, I keep reading thousand of horror stories and finding atrocious pictures that have made me question whether the procedure is worth it or not. Not only is it a long time commitment, but it can be also be quite expensive.
I haven't gotten anything done but I have been seriously looking into it. Like many people, I want to make an informed decision but I fear for the side-effects. Recently, however, I came across an article that was not only informative but it also granted me peace of mind. Most people are apprehensive about surgery because they fear that it will be too obvious and too fake. At least that’s my main concern. The article however, exposed me to the several techniques in which one can achieve luscious lips in a very inexpensive way.

I hope you find it as helpful!
Best of luck to those who have encountered side-effects with your surgery. I definitely appreciate your feedback.
