I recently had 1 syringe of Juvederm ultra injected in my lips (about 3 months ago) and it appears that the filler sits near the border of the lips creating a type of shadow that I don’t find attractive. Is this typical or does it have to do with technique or the injector?
Answer: Unhappy with filler I'm sorry you are unhappy with your filler treatment. The result you are seeing is likely from injector technique. You can elect to have the filler dissolved with hyaluronidase if you do not wish for it to wear away gradually.

Answer: Lip Augmentation Candidate -- Injectable Fillers (Juvederm, Restylane, Volbella), Fat Grafting to Lips, NovaThreads for Lift I would highly recommend getting a formal evaluation with and treatment from a board-certified cosmetic dermatologist and expert in facial sculpting. Technique is the key to a successful lip augmentation with fillers, so you'll want to see someone meticulous. An experienced physician will be able to determine which filler, how much filler, and which technique will give you the subtle result you're looking for. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Juvederm Lips Filler It is possible that more filler was injected close to the borders. It is also possible that filler moved due to increase dynamic movement of the lips the immediate days after injection. At this point, the filler is settled with tissue. You may consider adding more fillers into the body of the lips to give them more volume so that noted shadow would disappear. Alternatively, you can wait until fillers start to dissolve slowly as time passes.

Answer: Juvederm Injections This could be the product that moves to the border. This will dissolve on its own in the next few months but if this continues to bother you, follow up with your injector.
