Can Belotero disappear in a week in lips? (Photo)

Belotero is a commonly used filler for lip augmentation.  It has the advantage of being quite a smooth product that does not tend to form lumps and bumps.  Complete disappearance of the 1 mL of the product 2 days after injection would be highly unlikely.  More likely what you’re noticing is reduction in the initial swelling phase which occurs with any lip injection.  Don’t be alarmed!  Let the product further settle in for a couple weeks and you will probably be pleased with the result.  On the other hand, there are other fillers that can be used for lip augmentation and finding the right one for you is a discussion you should have with a Board certified dermatologist who has experience with all the available options.

Thank you for your question and picture posts. It is likely that you need more product to get the desired volumization. Not likely that the product dissolved in 1 week.H Karamanoukian MD FACS

Thank you for this question and for providing photos. It is unlikely that after one week, the product has completely disappeared. It is more likely that the swelling you experienced post injection is now dissipating which is why you feel as though there is less product in your lips. I would advise returning to see your physician for some touch ups. Regards,
