What is causing bulging when I smile after fillers/Botox? (photos)

February 5, 2022
Asked By:Taylorg1 in Phoenix, Arizona

I have gotten under eye filler( may 2020 & June 2021) and cheek filler (Sept 2021) Jan 7, 22 I got filler for smile lines and Botox. This was the first time I did Botox around my eyes. When I smile, I’m noticing bulging/ indentation. I don’t like the fuller look. See before/after. I’m thinking it’s too much filler and needs to be dissolved?
