Do You Have Lip Migration?
Lip migration happens when lip fillers shift from their original placement, altering natural lip proportions and contour. This can lead to an uneven, swollen, or unnatural appearance, affecting overall facial harmony. Factors such as incorrect injection depth, excessive filler, frequent lip movement, and poor product integration can contribute to migration. Identifying these changes early ensures better correction and long-term results. As a registered nurse with extensive experience in aesthetic lip treatments, I have seen it all. Some results are worse than others but the risks must be acknowledged. Migration can alter the delicate balance of the facial features and influence an individual’s overall appearance.
Variation in severity depends on factors such as individual anatomy, the characteristics of the lip tissue, and external influences like facial movement or repetitive habits. Understanding this complication can lead to avoidance of serious complications is essential when addressing concerns about migration.
