Hello, I had a HA dermal filler injected in my nasal labial folds about a year ago. However I ended up with a good amount of filler higher up at the side of my nose, along my nose. On both sides. The doctor who did this claims that they did not inject in that area & that the filler can (though rarely) migrate in this manner. Is this possible? Can a filler really travel up vertically? Thank you for any tips.
