Had Juvederm about 3 years ago but the filler has migrated way past my lip borders. Is dissolving still possible? (Photo)

Question

I had juvederm about 3 years ago, Im unsure of the amount. As you can see my fillers have migrated way past my lip borders on both upper and bottom. My lips lost all of their definition. They've looked like this for the past few years. My side profile is even worse, I have a horrible duck pout. Is getting them dissolved at a clinic this late even possible? I want everything gone but I don't know where to start.

If the HA filler is still present then you should still be able to dissolve it.  Please be aware that it may take multiple sessions.  See an expert injector for an evaluation and treatment.

It’s important to consult with a qualified medical professional, but generally, hyaluronic acid fillers like Juvederm can be dissolved using an enzyme called hyaluronidase. The effectiveness of dissolution may vary depending on factors like the type of filler used, how long it’s been since the injection, and the skill of the injector. If you’re concerned about filler migration, it’s best to schedule an appointment with a plastic surgeon for an evaluation and to discuss your options.

Hi there, Yes dissolving is an option. I would recommend a consultation with an aesthetic provider to discuss their recommendations. Dissolving can take multiple sessions and expect that it may look worse before they are refilled and look better. Fillers have been studied to sometimes last in the body 10 years! Hope this helps!
