Double chin after chin filler - did the filler move? (photos)

Question

I have had chin filler about 6 months ago and also a little bit towards my jaw. After treatment I noticed that on the left side the jaw filler felt placed lower than on my right side. I was also massaging it (upwards movement) to resolve this. I have in total 3ml in that area. Since then, I noticed that I have developed a pouch under my chin (before and after photos attached). I have not gained any weight since then, so I don't think it is natural fatty tissue. Has the filler moved?

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

For unique cases where a variety of modalities could be used to treat the condition, I would suggest an in-person or virtual consultation to develop a custom and effective treatment plan.  It is difficult to precisely define the best option without collecting the same information. I suggest reaching out to an expert for a consultation with surgical and non-surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.

Hi @agnesasophia! Unfortunately, filler migration is a possibility. I recommend going to an expert injector for an evaluation. If this is true filler migration, Hylenex can dissolve this problem. I hope this was helpful!

Filler migration or residual fat growth in sub mental area are the possible answers. Try either KyBella injections in a few sessions or under local anesthesia lipo directed at that area only. Fees in the $3,000 ranges.
