MIGRATION

Excess filler or filler migration can occur when dermal filler moves from its intended area, resulting in an unnatural or uneven appearance. If this happens, treatments to dissolve or redistribute the filler can help restore balance and symmetry, ensuring natural-looking results.

Our expert Nurse Prescriber Coral has lots of experience reversing dermal filler treatments carried out by previous practitioners, often holding migration and complication clinics weekly due to the rise in aesthetic complications in the UK. Be sure that you are in safe hands for your dissolving session with a face-to-consultation and prescription with our medical professional.

What Causes Filler Migration?

Excess filler or migration refers to when dermal filler material shifts or moves from the area it was originally injected into. This can happen due to poor injection technique, overfilling, or the natural movement of facial muscles. Over time, the filler may migrate from the intended area, leading to uneven or lumpy results. To address filler migration, treatments such as hyaluronidase may be used to dissolve the filler and restore a more natural appearance. It’s important to choose an experienced practitioner to avoid complications and ensure safe, effective outcomes.

How Can Filler Migration Be Treated?

Excess filler or filler migration, where the product moves from the intended area, can be resolved with hyaluronidase injections. This is a prescription only medicine that must be prescribed following a face to face consultation and assessment with a medical professional.

This enzyme dissolves hyaluronic acid-based fillers safely and effectively, allowing the face to return to its natural contour. If you're unhappy with your filler results, our Nurse Prescriber will assess the situation and recommend the best course of action to achieve your desired look.

The area to be treated is numbed with local anaesthetic, then a number of small injections to deliver the enzyme are administered. Results take up to 2 weeks, however within the first couple of hours you will notice the filler starting to break down.
