I have had lip fillers done 5 or 6 times over the course of 2 years(not all by the same injector). I have had both tenting and canula technique done. After the last time I started to notice filler behind the lip a few months later giving me a duck look. Would the filler have migrated or was it improperly placed? I am seriously considering having it dissolved but then I think about all the money I have spent up until this point.

Answer: Has my filler migratedor was it improperly injected? Can this be fixed without having to start over?
Lip augmentation with Hyaluronic acid, a natural ingredient found in our skin, is the perfect treatment for you because it will add volume and definition to your lips. It will make them look fuller and plumper, still giving you a natural result. But there are a few key things to consider when it...
These can be taken care of by most physicians who inject fillers. It requires hyaluronidase injections. I prefer to use Hylenex for this because there is low risk of allergies for this. It might require a couple treatments. Surgery shouldn't be needed.
When you massage it out, you have to really apply a lot of pressure to that lump to a point where you are uncomfortable. If the filler hasn't moved by a week, I would have your doc dissolve that area and refill in 48 hours at no charge.
