This swelling will go down in a matter of hours which will leave you with the full lips that you will be able to see for the next few months.

Although this sounds fake, it is true that certain kinds of fillers such as hyaluronic acid can be immediately neutralized if you think that the results aren t up to the mark. These fillers work in a manner where they plump up the area they are being injected into. If an antidote for this is administered then the effects of these fillers will be neutralized immediately.

You can go for the reversal anytime after the treatment as long as the effects of the injections last.
