Took Restylane Injections Around My Lips, Swell Randomly On Both The Lips. Cause?

I had restylane injections around my lips a little over a year ago and about 5 months ago my lips will randomly swell. When my lips swell it starts with only half of either bottom or top lip then that section will return to normal after several hours then the swelling will go to e next section and so on til every section has swelled and returned to normal. I am wondering if the injections have caused this reaction?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
The Restylane is containing filler agent in form of chemical molecule known (HA), the role of this molecular does not proved safe in cosmetic result, more over the lips tissues are so loose and tender that immediately get swelled even after slight trauma, the most possible cause of your problem might be the injection you are taking, it wont help you for what you are taking instead will cause a more harm, aging is physiological phenomenon, and can be considered as positive feed back of body function which ultimately ends the life, have nice day.
