I had Juvederm for the first time. I was fearful to try my under eyes so we did my nasolabial folds instead to see how I like it, one syringe each side. There was no improvement and it feels like he injected the filler above the nasolabial line leaving a prominent bulge. The corners of the mouth look like I have cotton balls wedged against my teeth. Should I have it removed or wait it out? I'm concerned about the bulges causing jowls, or that Hyaluronidase might dissolve some of my natural HA.

Answer: Definitely a bad result Unfortunately, your injector placed the filler oustside the folds, accentuating a very minor fold and giving you an unnatural result. I would ask for hyaloronidaze to dissolve up the filler, as juvederm can result in prolonged swelling in this area. Placed properly hyaloronidaze will not affect your natural tissue, but the consensus is that if some of your own hyaloronidaze a pics dissolves, it will be remade by your body very quickly. In the future avoid nasolabial fold injection, yours aren't that deep! Ask your injector about their experience level, especially with males, as treatment technique for men is slightly different than woman.

Answer: Juvederm Result Thank you for your question and for sharing your photographs. Sorry that you are having some concerns about your postprocedure appearance. Your photographs are very helpful. It does appear that you received too much filler placed too far laterally. I would suggest removing some product with hyaluronidase. Gentle massage and tincture of time will also help. Please be sure to see an experienced injector for an in-person reevaluation to review your before and after photographs, fully address your concerns and discuss your goals and expectations in order to determine the best course of action. Best wishes!
