It is impossible to make the diagnosis based on this photgraph. However, your concern is very valid. And you should relate it to your injector. Injections of hyaluronidase to be of value must be done as soon as possible to salvage viable tissue. Even if this is a vascular problem the majority will recover without any problems. Good luck!
It is not possible to determine if you have an occlusion based on the photograph alone. You do however have a valid concern and I encourage you to return to your injector for an evaluation.
Hi, and thanks for your question. From your picture, it appears as if you are having bruising due to the placement of filler. Sometimes the procedure, will cause bruising due to trauma. Other times, if you are taking any type of blood thinners, or things that may cause thinning of the blood such as aspirin, alcohol, Vitamin E, or others, bruising can commonly appear. Vascular compromise would appear as a white and eventually bluish area on the tissue. If you feel you are concerned, you should go back to your medical provider. Best of luck, Dr. Alvarez
OK- based on one blurred photo I can not call this. Looking at the area lateral to the NL fold I can see the start of reticulate erythema (redness), I can not see any pustulation. That area is supplied by the facial artery leading to the angular artery toward the top of your NL fold. If there is pain, the probability of occlusion is higher. Bottom line, see your expert injector face to face for an assessment. Enzymes can reverse HA fillers, so I would not worry, just see your Specialist . All the best, Dr Davin S. Lim. Brisbane.

Thanks for posting your question. Fillers are a great way to improve the contour of the nose without surgery and downtime. Juvederm Ultra would be a fine option, but unfortunately, as with all HA fillers, it will not be a permanent solution. Best of luck
Thank you for your question! Swelling is common regardless of how many times you get treated. I suggest discussing your concerns with your injector. Otherwise, be sure to see a reputable provider in your area.
Thank you for your photos. If you are looking for the glamour style lips in your goal photos, then you may consider leaving the cupid's bow where it is and adding more filler to the body of the lip and bring it to match the bow. The projection of your bow appears so noticeable because it is ...
As long as you do not have any active infection of the skin, it is safe to get filler after a facial waxing. I still sterilize my patient's face prior to the procedure even after waxing to minimize any risk of infection. Hope this helps! Johnson C. Lee, MD Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon
