Blister/ulcer from filler migration? (photo)

Question

I had lip fillers almost 18 months ago. After getting them, my top lip rolled under and it caused a crooked smile. I had some of it dissolved and have a very large blister or ulcer that has formed under my top lip in the gumarea? I saw a plastic surgeon who injected some more dissolver in it but he is also unsure of what this is. Can this be filler that migrated or something else?

At 18 months, there is no filler left in your lip.
Having had it reversed should also confirm this.
Picture is a little bit difficult to interpret, but it looks like you have an Tyndel effect from filler which is probably not the correct diagnosis.
This could also be a mucosal.
I suggest suggest having a few in person consultations with ENT doctors in your community
