Juvederm: Some patients experience some swelling after injections with hyaluronic acid. It usually lasts a short while. Massaging is not a great idea because you can move the product.

Trauma/allergies: Trauma to the lips
blistering due to viral infection (or bacterial)
food allergies or to new cosmetic (lipstick)
