right guys how do we get rid of the duck lips now thankfully they're slowly coming out of fashion we do still see a couple of bits out on the street but they are definitely reducing and patients are a lot more aware of the duck lips and they are now chasing the beautiful contoured much more elegant natural looking lips but how did we get to duck lips in the first place problem number one the lips are way too overfilled the doctor and the patient have not looked at the shape of their face the rest of their body and thought you know what we need to keep it in line and in check with the rest of the facial and the features so that is problem number one when it's way too overfilled issue number two is when it's overfilled so much that now we get migration of the filler so the filler is now moving out of the lip pink part and now it's moving into the pink part and that's when you see that patients have a lot of fullness up here or even down here and it's not within the contours of the lip issue number three is when too much filler is put in the corners of the mouth and not actually placed or artistically placed in the central so you need to remember especially for women the focal points always need to be in the centre line of the face we do not want to be putting too much filler in the corners because that is the exact recipe for duck lips your lip fillers will not finish or will not go away or will not disappear in six months time so please trust your practitioner especially if you're seeing a good doctor trust the product and they should last a year 18 months unless you're on a plan to specifically build up the volume of your lips
