What are the odds of vascular occlusion happening twice in the lips?

December 5, 2016
Asked By:DollyLove in Boca Raton, FL

It happened once before with a new injector I picked and it was a nightmare. I want to get lip filler again (by someone highly experienced now) but I'm traumatized. Are the odds of this happening a second time very low?
