There is a lot of bruising around my mouth after having belotero and botox injections, how long before the bruising goes away?

I had belotero and botox for smokers lines yesterday. Since the treatments, I've noticed a lot of bruising around my mouth. It looks like I was in a car accident. How long till the bruising goes away? The swelling is not too bad, I've been using ice.

I'm sorry to hear about your bruising. This usually subsides within a week to 10 days. We recommend that our patients take Arnica pills and cream to expedite the process.

Everyone is different when it comes to healing from bruising, so there is really no good answer. Hopefully it won't be more than a week!!

My dermatologist injected Belotero around my mouth, but now my smile has changed and I have new wrinkles radiating from around my mouth like whiskers. Was this too much product in the corners of the mouth or in the folds? What should I do?

The doctor who injected me was supposed to be highly qualified and charged additional cost for his expertise in injecting. He now says I need more product. At this point I am over $1000 in and am not in the position to pay more. There are before pics that clearly show the hallows are worse now. Am I wrong to expect the doctor to fix this without me spending more money? What went wrong anyway? Why are the hollows worse than before?
