Symptoms of lip necrosis after filler

Necrosis has been defined as “the death of most or all of the cells in a tissue or an organ due to some kind of injury, disease or failure of the blood supply.” necrosis with lip fillers in London is very rare having only 1 in every 100,000 cases, and this generally takes place from one of 2 causes:

By hindering the supply to blood vessel through injecting too much filler or by producing too much swelling just near the blood vessel. This obstruction leads to lip necrosis as the soft tissue cannot get the blood flow it requires.

It is possible through direct damage that has been caused due to poor injection technique.

The symptoms of lip necrosis may include the following:

·         severe pain that may occur after the treatment as the numbing cream used during the initial therapy wears off and pain can be felt.

·         prolonged white blanching after lip fillers which occurs due to the lack of blood flow on the affected area

·         lessened temperature of the lips which takes place due to the lack of blood flow that reduces the temperature

·         discolouration which can be dark grey or purple as this is the final stage when tissue death starts taking hold

What should you do when you have lip necrosis after lip fillers?

If this starts during the treatment, then your practitioner should stop the treatment right away, massage the affected area, apply heat and tap the area for repetition.

If this does not immediately stop the necrosis, then the practitioner should start with remedial treatment based on the kind of filler used. You might be asked to take aspirin and if it does not stop the necrosis, then you will be referred to another medical expert and proper care will be needed.

Can lip injections damage lips?

Lip injections do not cause any damage to your lips and the filler used (hyaluronic acid) is actually a naturally occurring acid that can be absorbed slowly by the body. Any damage caused to your lips occurs due to improper technique created by the one who is giving the injections. Lumps, swellings and bumps which are around your lips might be an indication of this kind of problem. Thus, your dentist can provide lip filler injections as they have proper knowledge of lip structure and can avoid such unnecessary problems in future.

Will your lip fillers shrink lip size afterwards?

Lip fillers will not shrink your lip size afterwards but hyaluronic acid is used as the filler will be absorbed slowly by the body. This will provide the false impression of shrinking lips however they won’t shrink smaller than before the treatment is done.
