The lower part of my face needs the work. I had Voluma in my cheeks to fill them out but those deep folds and down turned mouth has got to go.As I said fillers made them worse. will Botox Help? Also the filler wasn't injected to well as you can see by the formulation of the bluish tinge of filler to close to the surface. It seems the fillers tends to migrate a little above the folds making them deeper. Will Botox Help with the corners of my mouth?
Answer: Voluma is a runny filler. It is less runny than Juvederm or Belotero. However it is much more runny than Restylane and Perlane. That means that once it is shoved into your face by your injector, it can move where it wants to. If you are an injector who does not know how to control facial volume with filler, these "smooth" fillers migrate and "fix" lumps and bumps. Unfortunately the shifting product causes its own problems. You need to find an injector who does not drink the koolaid and uses high G prime fillers like Restylane and Perlane.

Answer: Filler made the folds worse I'm sorry to hear that your folds are worse after filler. They shouldn't be. Botox can be used to help lift the corners of the mouth by relaxing the muscle that pulls the corner of the mouth downward. However, this won't help the visible folds much at all. You have the choice of more filler appropriately placed (you would need several syringes) and / or a deep plane facelift to lift the cheek. If you want to try to avoid surgery, see someone with extensive experience with fillers and you should get a very nice improvement in the nasolabial folds, you just need more volume.Andrew Campbell, M.D. Facial Rejuvenation Specialist Quintessa Aesthetic Centers

Answer: Fillers Such as Juvederm, Restylane, Voluma, Silk, Radiesse, Sculptra, Bellafill; Fat Transfer/Renuva fillers can be used to improve deep lines and wrinkles and if you are unhapy they can be reversed in some instances if a hyaluronic acid filler was used. See an expert in facial shaping. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Fillers made my nasolabial folds worse? Why? Thank you for sharing your question and photographs. Though carefully placed Botox may improve the corners of your mouth I would consider dissolving some of the filler material placed within your smile lines to remove the bluish hue and lumpiness seen. I would then continue to invest in cheek fillers to regain some tissue lift before seeking additional correction into your smile lines. Hope this helps.

Answer: Filler in nasolabial folds It is difficult to fully assess from the photos alone, but generally speaking, if filler is injected into the areas just next to the fold instead of the groove of the fold, it can make the fold look deeper. Another potential issue is if the product was injected too superficial (close to the surface of the skin ) which can also cause problems. I recommend seeing a board certified plastic surgeon, facial plastic surgeon or dermatologist to have the issues evaluated. Some of the filler can potentially be dissolved which may help correct things. Hope that helps and good luck.
