Can I go back to my doctor for more filler? We used 1/2 syringe in sides of my upper lip and what was left in my lower (Photo)

Question

I had fillers done in a different country & the way it works is that after the swelling is over, u go back 2 review & check everything. When I went back, the dr. it self decided 2 add more in my upper lip (I didn't have any in my lower lip) free of charge. recently, I wanted2 get Botox in my brows n fillers in my upper lip.I loved my doctor, he was a very nice person & very informative. But I still want fuller upper lip. its been a week after the procedure.

Your photos shows that you have a very nice result from the fillers. It is a good idea to wait few weeks before injecting more fillers, first to let the swelling go down and see the real results, also to decide if you really want more filler, most of the times too much it does not look good. Your doctor will be the best one to advice you about this.

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

If you want more and feel it will give you an improved result, see your physician and ask for more.  The amount should be individualzed based on what is attractive and natural for your face.  Less is sometimes more.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Steven Wallach, MD · Answer

If you want more filler then you should go back to your doctor and pay for more filler to be added if it is deemed appropriate. Best of luck.

Your lips look beautiful.  It can take two weeks to see the full result.  Do you know which filler was used?  If it was a hyaluronic acid filler such as Juvederm or Restylane, it is possible to have filler added in another week.  If you are planning on more filler for your upper lip, you will require filler in your lower lip to maintain a natural look.

This is a very common issue of the patient trying to get more than 1 syringe of filler can do. Just understand the filler has a costs and short cutting the amounts only makes it very hard to stretch it. Most need 2 syringes..
