It's been 8 months since my last syringe - Why is there a white border around my lip? (photos)

Asked By:Smars22 in Detroit, Michigan

Hi! I have been getting lip filler for over a year now. Over a month ago I got an additional 1ml of Kysse injected to my lips- it had been about 8 months since my last syringe. This time, there is a very noticeable white border above my upper lip. I assumed this was migration, and have been back to my injector twice now and had hylenex injected all around the upper lip. Initially, the white border goes away, but after a few days, it comes back. Is there just too much filler in my lip?
