Facial Overfilled Syndrome

Facial overfilled syndrome is an underdiagnosed aesthetic complication due to multiple incorrect placements of fillers. Facial distortion due to the overfilled syndrome can be exaggerated by facial expressions and movements and worsens with tissue ptosis due to aging. Commonly "produced" by practitioners depending solely on fillers as a single modality for treatment, the overfilled syndrome can be seen among those who had volume overload in the midface, forehead, chin, and nose. Incorrectly placed dermal fillers, poor selection of filler products, overzealous attempts by the injectors, and overly enthusiastic clients who "chase the lines" are the common causes of this phenomenon.
