Morpheus8 gone wrong - looks like my cheeks were over filled

ORIGINAL POST

Morpheus 8 Gone Wrong

adshelly
So this is my 3rd treatment and I was so excited. The provider is awesome but I’m not sure what happened this time. My face is a disaster! It looks like my cheeks were over filled with filler and I did not get any injections! I’ve started a steroid pack. My provider noticed I was swelling more than usual and asked if I was on my cycle. My skin does get sensitive on my cycle so that’s the only thing I can think of. I will keep you updated on my journey.

Hi! since the swelling has gone down I have been exfoliating like crazy. I purchased Kate Somerville ExfoliKate Intensive Exfoliating Treatment and do this twice a week and I scrub with a silicone scrubber. I started Musely which is working great. I also got a facial with nano needling,Hyaluronic acid, Dermaplaning, and a peel. Overall it did its job and I am happy with the firmness and my jawline. It looks great. As for my skin I have to keep exfoliating to remove the hyper pigmentation from my cheeks. So no I’m focusing on texture and the evenness of my skin. I still have no idea what went wrong.

Feel like my cheeks look just like this and maybe that's grid marks you had as well? I have them and I'm post day4 freaking out hoping this texture goes away on its own. Worse on my neck!! Please respond with if you had this issue and how long it took to help go away

Did the bumps show up later or within a couple days after the procedure?

I am 8 month post my second Morpheus treatment whick left me very swollen on the right side of my face and neck. I think my lymph nodes under my chin were damaged. The swelling is still there and I am very depressed about the situation. I definitely do not want to have another Morpheus treatment which was pre-paid. 100% never do again.
