If you’ve ever looked in the mirror and thought, “This doesn’t feel like me”, you're not alone. Regret after a cosmetic treatment can be emotional, and many people don’t talk about it.

💔 Why Filler Regret Happens
Not all filler experiences are created equal.
Regret often happens when:
You felt rushed through your consultation
The results look unnatural or too “done”
The injector didn’t understand your vision
The product migrated or caused unevenness
You weren’t properly informed about aftercare or risks
The worst part? You may feel too embarrassed to speak up—or unsure where to turn.
👀 Signs of a Poor Result
Not all “bad filler” is dramatic. Subtle things can throw off your whole look:
Uneven or overfilled lips
Blurry lip borders or puffiness above the mouth
Cheeks that feel too full or sit too high
Shadowing or strange facial movement
A gut feeling that it’s not quite right
🆘 What to Do If You're Unhappy
The first step is simple: pause. Let the swelling go down and let yourself reflect.
Then:
Find a medically qualified professional with experience in correction
Book a no-pressure consultation to assess the area
Discuss options—dissolving, reshaping, or waiting it out
Take time to decide what feels right for you
You’re not being “dramatic.” You’re advocating for your face—and your peace of mind.
