How long should I wait before getting filler top ups? (Photo)

Question

I had 1ml of filler put in my lips around the beginning of April. They still look very natural and i absolutely love them, but i am slightly inclined to get them a tiny bit more plump. How long should i wait before i get a little more put in, as i want to avoid migration and them looking too fake. At this point i'm thinking August but let me know what you recommend. Ill include a photo if i can. Thanks! :)

You will want to wait at least two weeks between injections to allow for the product to settle and any swelling to resolve.  After that it is fine to have further treatment as you wish.  Your photos show a very nice, natural result currently.

You could try a lip flip of your upper lip in the interim. If this is not enough you could consider a little additional filler to the upper lip, but this should be done conservatively to look natural.

Hi and welcome to our forum!From your photos, I note excellent fullness of the lips.Touchups can be performed at any time although post-injection swelling from the previous injections may camouflage the result for at least 2-4 weeks, making fine adjustment inaccurate. As the material is fixed to your lip tissue, migration at this time is extremely rare.Best wishes...
