Day 2 after getting 0.6 mL lip filler, 0.4 in the upper lip and 0.2 in the lower.
I’m really struggling with how projected and ducky my upper lip looks right now. Everyone says it will settle, but I’m having a hard time believing it 😭
Did yours look like this at first and then become natural?
Just did filler and I hate it. Please tell. Me it's gonna come down. She injected 0.6. I absolutely hate it.
I’m so depressed. had dissolving session due to urgent blocked blood vessel, had no choice but to dissolve. now two weeks later having full systematic reaction. burning pain all over, feels like I’m being burned by a stove top. tingling feelings and anything brushing against my skin feels like knIves. I’ve brought it up to my various doctors and all have totally dismissed my concerns. I don’t even know what to do at this point. on top of that I still have a big lump of filler in my face that didn’t dissolve so it looks bad on top of feeling bad all over. im so scared idk what to do
I am on day 20 after hyaluronidase. It was a strong dose that took me beyond baseline unfortunately. Some people say the volume you've achieved 14 days after hyaluronidase is as good is it's going to get. Others say it takes longer. My skin deflated on days 1 and 2. On days 3 - 5, it went from squishy to soft. As there has been no change since day 5, I'm going to assume that this is as good as it gets.
Apart from filler which i want to avoid, I'd like to make a list of all the treatments that have helped people on here. Someone already said tesoro and prf/prp. I'm weary of using threads or sculptra. It almost feels like my fat pad reduced too. Any topicals? Or topicals that have worked after needling? Any devices? Please only state what has worked for you and what you can clearly attribute to helping your situation. Thanks
EDIT: Please, only contributions of treatments that helped restore your skin (excluding filler)
first 3 photos are after my 4 ultrasound dissolving treatments, last 3 are before i ever got filler in the first place. please don’t compliment how beautiful my natural lips were. if anyone has any advice or knows what could be causing the border to be so protruding and what might be preventing my lips from going back to their baseline please let me know. The ultrasound shows very little filler left. what is that white roll above my lip? it wasn’t as prominent before. is this swelling??
edit- i only had the filler in for a month. and the reason why I’m asking about this is because the fullness and distortion of my lips makes me look weird and I feel it throws my proportions off I miss my old lips. do you guys think this is permanent? :(
also please don’t give your own experiences in the comments if you haven’t found a solution. not that i don’t care, but i’m looking to fix it not just to find people who relate
I did this filler on June 20th, so almost 2 months ago.
Seems like it migrated on cupids bow, but it was just 0.4ml, I did not expect it.
Has it migrated or was the filler placed poorly?
Is it gonna go down on its own or I need to dissolve it ? Dissolving is quite painful so I want to avoid that.
For context, I was 24 when I got this - in a very bad spot with my self esteem and had just moved abroad with minimal funds so I got the cheapest filler offering assuming that everyone in London would be good. Boy was I wrong.
I have a naturally wide face and they’ve placed the cheek filler on the top of my cheekbones making me face very wide and just look unnatural. My lips were uneven & have migrated as well. I’ve since earned enough money to go to good doctors but now I’m terrified and keep backing out since reading the damage stories.
Where im from ultrasound isn’t allowed during such treatments so what is my best bet? Bite the bullet and do it, or risk looking worse than ever. Every time I look in the mirror it’s a reminder of my stupidity. I place value in the way I look as it’s central to my job and have had to avoid taking photos.
Has anyone had success with cheek filler dissolving? What is the amount and does it matter if I space it out
I was wondering whether anyone here has tried several different types of fillers and could share their experience with migration.
I have read that hyaluronic acid fillers can sometimes migrate over time and may cause bumps or puffiness when injected under the eyes, I have also heard that Radiesse may be less likely to migrate, but can occasionally cause lumps or nodules
I am thinking about Juvelook Volume, has anyone tried it before and could share their experience?
Hello I recently just got my lips done by a certified nurse and I noticed these lines on the sides on my mouth. Are they permanent or do I need to dissolve? I’m on day 4 and I absolutely hate them. Any recommendations are appreciated
Guys, what kind of MRI do I need to do - with or without contrast? I’ve had these fillers for about 1.5 years now, chin and upper lip - Korean filler, injected without any proper technique. It creates issues, I can fill it there, it swells and even affects my mimics, smile and pronunciation. I did a few dissolving sessions with ultrasound. The issue is - ultrasound only showed filler on bone, that was sort of staying in one place, and I suspected that some old integrated superficial filler is still present, maybe mimicking fat etc. I asked to inject enzyme throughout the layers and that’s when I felt a difference. But the injector hesitates to dissolve more since they rely heavily on ultrasound in their practice.
I’ve gotten lip filler a few times over the past 5 years (initially was getting 0.5-1ml each time then smaller amounts) and had 0.4ml of Restalyne Defyne injected into my upper lip/lateral borders for “structure” after two years of no injections.
It’s been about 4 weeks and my upper lip/nasolabial area just looks so puffy. I have a little filler mustache at certain times/in certain lining and it fluctuates a lot depending on water retention, I guess? I’m wondering if it pushed older filler out (Juvederm) and now the entire area is puffed up.
It’s been making me really insecure and I’m seeing the PA who injected me soon, but I’m too scared to dissolve due to all of the horror stories. I know filler doesn’t really dissolve much over time and if anything, I worry about migration given how many times I’ve gotten filler… I can privately send photos if it’d be helpful.
Are there any other solutions or is spot-dissolving really not that bad? Does anyone have any advice/experience? Topical dissolver, strategic botox, gua sha, anything?
Hi guys! I’m considering lip filler and want a very natural result. Mainly I want to lift/add height to the middle of my upper lip, with a little volume in the center and maybe a tiny bit in the lower lip.
Would vertical or classic technique be better for this, and how much filler would you start with?
Also, once healed, can you or your partner feel the filler when touching/kissing?
Any subtle before/afters are very welcome! 💕
I’ve had filler a few times over the last 5 years, dissolved and refilled twice with no issues (when I was younger, and unaware of the danger). I’ve been wanting to dissolve for the last 2 years as the migration / moustache is making me miserable but I’m terrified of complications. I just wish I never got it
I don’t know if this is the right sub but are there any ways to dissolve it naturally?
The last time I got filler was around 2024, and I don’t think I’ve had more than 1ml out in after dissolved. My bottom lip is naturally a lot bigger than my top lip
I can’t take serrapeptase due to blood issues too. I did have a dissolve appointment booked but cancelled the day of and lost my deposit due to the stories I’ve heard on here
I’m also 10 months pp if that’s makes any difference
Any help would be appreciated!
I had tear trough filler done once in 2023. Unfortunately, it resulted in lumps, and the filler never really looked right. Then, after losing 24 kg last year, I started noticing a very obvious Tyndall effect as well. This is what my under-eye area looks like now (see photos).
What would you do in my situation? I’m really nervous about getting hyaluronidase because of all the horror stories I’ve read on this forum about dissolving filler.
I had a strong dose of hyaluronidase in the middle of one cheek 15 days ago. By the next day the area had caved in and the skin felt squishy and almost "damp" to the touch. Tacky maybe.
It was an area about the size of a 3cm wide circle. It's funnel shaped. By day 8 it was less squishy/damp. Today is day 15 and I'm not seeing any rebound. It's a little better in the mornings, but 2 hours later it looks deep again (AI says it looses the water around it once I start moving around). It's very unsymmetrical with the other cheek which didnt have filler.
I need to be back at work in 2 weeks. So I'm looking into having some sort of dental prosthesis to plump out the cheek. I have been using cotton wool placed in the gum area when I've had to go outside recently. It completely hides the volume loss, but makes talking difficult and sometimes it slides forward a little too much.
If this was going to improve would I have seen a slight difference by now?
Is there anything I can do prior to going back to work that might help?
Hello, I had lower lip filler about 6 weeks ago and I’m wondering if it migrated. I had it done to balance out my top lip to which I had a lift lip done. I noticed the possibility not long after the filler, but didn’t think too much about it until I saw a snapshot made with friends and thought, “this looks awful”. See last pic. If migration, do you think I should wait to see what happens or look at dissolving? Thank you in advance for your insight.
Hi guys!
Thought I would share this interesting article about hyaluronidaise and the reactions it can have based on if you’re allergic to bees of wasps! Interested to hear what people’s thoughts are and if you’ve had a bad reaction to bees did you also have a bad reaction to hyaluronidaise?
Need help identifying persistent clear fluid-filled bumps after lip filler
I’m hoping someone has experienced something similar because I’m at a loss.
I’ve spent around $6,000 CAD on my lips over the past several months, with multiple filler sessions. My most recent appointment was Wednesday, where I had another syringe of filler and a lip flip.
For over a month now, I’ve had multiple tiny, clear, fluid-filled bumps along my upper vermilion border. They are:
Clear and look like tiny water blisters.
Not painful.
Not itchy.
Don’t crust over.
They seem to come and go in size but never fully disappear.
At one point I accidentally popped one and clear watery fluid came out.
My injector isn’t sure what they are. One doctor thought it might be eczema/contact dermatitis, but the treatment didn’t really help. I’ve also wondered about lymphangiectasia, blocked glands, or some kind of delayed filler reaction.
My lips are currently still healing from my latest filler, so they’re red and swollen, but these little bumps have been present since before this most recent treatment.
Has anyone experienced anything like this?
Were they related to filler?
Were they lymphangiectasia?
Did they eventually go away?
Did you need hyaluronidase, laser treatment, or a dermatologist to get rid of them?
I’m getting really discouraged because I love the shape of my lips, but these bumps are making it impossible to enjoy the results. I really need these gone ASAP as I have an important event at the end of August hence why I’m trying to do everything I can to look by best.
Any advice or similar experiences would be greatly appreciated.
It’s NOT HSV. As I’ve been tested. Please help me diagnose so that I can find a way to get rid of them.
Can you share your experience after getting lip filler? Do your lips feel harder or different than before? Can your partner feel the filler when kissing?
I'm worried it might reduce the softness/sensation or make kissing pleasurable for either person.
