Ruined lips after dissolving lip filler
I’ve had a horrible experience with lip filler. A year ago I got my lips filled for the first time with 0.5ml and there was migration, so I got them dissolved 2 weeks later. I got them refilled a month later and the migration was still present but I decided to leave them alone.
A couple weeks after I got the lip filler my lips became really chapped and started peeling, I believe I got a mild case of exfoliative cheilitis. From what I’ve researched online, there is no link between the 2 but my problems with chapped and peeling lips started only after lip filler, I never had them before.
After suffering like this for 8 months I decided to get them dissolved. My lips are now wrinkled (even though I’m only 21) and deflated to a smaller size than before I got lip filler. I want to refill them again with a different brand of filler this time as my lips are so shrivelled, but I’m scared.
I’m depressed and I don’t know what to do about my lips anymore
