“If you rely entirely on filler with the hope of avoiding the need for a facelift, you’re absolutely going to get wider and poofier,' says a New York dermatologist. How to avoid “pillow face,” “trout pout” and other pitfalls of our filler-happy age.
“Trout pout” is a term used to describe a common effect of too much dermal filler: when, because of overzealous injections, one’s lips are so inflated they begin to curl outwards. The other frequently cited filler fail occurs when cheeks become bloated and broaden, something comedian Amy Schumer called out on her Instagram a few months back: After test-driving filler, Schumer said she looked like the pointy-cheeked Disney villain Maleficent.
The FDA describes dermal fillers as gel-like substances that are injected under the skin to increase fullness or lessen the appearance of lines. Ingredients often include hyaluronic acid, calcium hydroxylapatite and poly-l-lactic acid. “Filler is really designed to recreate the natural fat and bone support that we had on ourselves five or 10 years ago,” says New York dermatologist Robert Anolik.
