Does 1ml filler have the potential to stretch skin?

Asked By:TK12393 in Amsterdam, Noord-Holland, Nederland
I’m a 27 year old male. I’ve had 1ml of dermal filler in my chin. I just stumbled upon an article about skin elasticity which got me a little bit worried. Is 1ml of filler enough to stretch out the skin an compromise elasticity? I know this has been asked before, but the answers are mostly about restoring volume with fillers, instead of sculpting like I had done. I’m not planning on doing filler another time. I was just curious for once.
