F.A.Q

How much does dermal filler cost?

At Farleigh Medical, we offer a flat rate of £300.00 for a single area and up to 1.2ml of product.

Whether you need 0.2ml or 1.2ml, the price is the same because our priority is achieving the perfect, natural look for you

We start with an in-depth consultation to understand your goals and assess your face.

We use the precise amount of filler needed to enhance your natural beauty, tailored specifically to your unique anatomy.

Leave with a refreshed face that look so natural, no one will guess you've had any treatment.

Do I get a free top-up after having treatment?

We do not offer free top-ups, and there's a good reason for this.

After dermal filler is injected, it continues to expand over time as it draws in moisture from the surrounding tissue.

We carefully plan each treatment to ensure your face look great not just immediately, but also 6-12 months down the line.

Administering too much too quickly can cause adverse psychological effects or overcorrection, leading to an unnatural and unattractive appearance.

Lip Filler Migration

Lip Filler Migration

June 16, 20243 min read

Understanding Lip Filler Migration: Causes and Prevention in 2024

Lip fillers are hugely popular for adding volume and creating a youthful look. But let's cut to the chase: some practices almost guarantee lip filler migration, where the filler moves away from the intended area, resulting in an uneven or unnatural appearance. Here's the no-nonsense truth about what causes lip filler migration and how to prevent it.

What is Lip Filler Migration?

Lip filler migration happens when the filler shifts beyond the targeted area, often settling above the upper lip. This results in an unbalanced look and can occur immediately or over time.

Causes of Lip Filler Migration

1. Injection Technique

Poor injection technique is a major cause of migration. Placing the filler too superficially or in the wrong tissue plane can cause it to move. Even the best injector will struggle if using flawed techniques.

2. The Russian Technique

The Russian technique, aiming for a heart-shaped pout by injecting filler vertically, is a migration risk. It uses multiple entry points and higher filler volume in a small area. This increased pressure often pushes the filler beyond intended borders.

3. Injecting Along the Border for Definition

Injecting filler along the vermillion border (where the lips meet the skin) is another migration risk. The border isn't a closed compartment; it's dynamic and constantly moving. Fillers here can easily migrate, especially with natural lip movements like talking and eating.

4. Type of Filler Used

Not all fillers are the same. Fillers that are too fluid or lack cohesiveness are prone to migration. Use high-quality, cohesive hyaluronic acid-based fillers specifically designed for lips.

5. Volume of Filler

Overfilling the lips is a guaranteed way to cause migration. Dermal fillers are hydrophilic, meaning they attract and draw in water over time. This can cause the filler to expand and disperse. Excessive filler creates pressure, pushing it into unintended areas. Moderation is key. Start with less and add more during follow-up appointments if needed. A conservative approach yields more natural and stable results.

6. Anatomical Factors

The lips are dynamic and connected to surrounding facial tissues, not a closed compartment. Imagine a loosely tied balloon—air easily moves within and escapes under pressure. Fillers can migrate within the lips if not properly contained.

7. Post-Treatment Behavior

Post-treatment care is crucial. Activities that put pressure on the lips, like massaging, touching, or strenuous exercise, can cause filler to move. Follow aftercare instructions carefully.

8. Quality of Filler

Cheap fillers are a disaster waiting to happen. High-quality fillers integrate well with tissues, reducing migration risk. Always choose reputable brands from certified providers.

9. Patient’s Skin Elasticity and Health

Skin elasticity and overall health impact filler stability. Poor skin elasticity from aging or genetics can lead to migration. Health conditions affecting skin quality or healing can also increase risks.

Preventing Lip Filler Migration

To prevent lip filler migration, stick to these straightforward strategies:

  • Avoid Overfilling: Less is more. Start with a conservative amount and add more if needed later.

  • Avoid Risky Techniques: Skip the Russian lip technique and vermillion border injections—they’re known for causing migration.

  • Choose High-Quality Fillers: Use reputable, high-quality fillers designed for lips.

  • Follow Post-Procedure Instructions: Stick to aftercare guidelines and avoid putting pressure on your lips.

  • Select an Experienced Injector: Make sure your injector is skilled and understands facial anatomy.

Conclusion

Lip filler migration is preventable if you avoid overfilling, risky injection techniques, and cheap fillers. Stick to these no-nonsense tips, and you’ll achieve beautiful, lasting results. If you’re considering lip enhancement, consult a qualified professional to ensure the best outcome.
