Weird "shadow" around mouth after cheek filler - could it have migrated? (photos)

August 22, 2022
Asked By:JT.UA

Hi all, I went in earlier this year to get my first filler in my nose. The person who I went to recommended that I get fillers in my cheek because otherwise after the nose filler, she said my nose would look "bigger". I agreed. Once everything was done, I loved the change in my nose and the cheeks looked subtle so I didn't mind. Now I have this weird "shadow" around my mouth and strange lines. First pic is from December 2021 (no fillers), second pic is from last month (5 months post filler)
