A physician surgeon shot a lot of attention when he shared a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) film showing how a patient’s hyaluronic acid fillers had grown and moved on their own over time.
The results stunned thousands of viewers, who admitted that their implanted fillers had never dissolved.
Dermal fillers are gel-like substances that are injected beneath the skin to enhance facial features, soften creases, smooth wrinkles, and restore lost volume, according to the American Board of Cosmetic Surgery.
According to the board, over a million men and women choose this popular face rejuvenation operation annually.
The most popular type of injectable fillers are those based on hyaluronic acid, which are also usually the most temporary. Hyaluronic acid fillers typically last six to eighteen months.
Dr. Kami Parsa, an oculoplastic surgeon, gained notoriety by sharing an MRI video
On Friday, July 12, Dr. Kami Parsa, an oculoplastic surgeon in Beverly Hills, California, uploaded a video of an MRI of a patient on his TikTok profile. The patient’s altered visage as a result of injectables was seen in the footage.
The patient, a 33-year-old woman, had nearly 12 CC, or 12 milliliters, of hyaluronic acid filler injected over the preceding six years.
In the video, which has received over 7.2 million views, the MRI was shown as a grey face with green dots that lit up in various areas, such as the lips and cheeks, to represent the residual hyaluronic acid filler.
What operations has the patient in issue undergone? It was not clarified by Dr. Parsa. He did, however, add that the material came to a total of 28 CC following the completion of a volumetric examination to ascertain the woman’s overall filler quantity.
In his video, the doctor stated, “which is more than twice the amount of filler that was injected.”
“What this shows us is that hyaluronic acid fillers are hydrophilic,” he continued.
This suggests that they both enhance tissue development and like being in the water.
A TikTok user expressed worry about the MRI, saying, “I just don’t see how this wouldn’t destroy the lymphatic system.”
Someone wrote, “Finally, this is being discussed.” “The crazy use and mass manufacture without warning. I must find out more. How about Botox?
Dr. Parsa said, “Botox has a long history and is safe if performed correctly.”
The patient’s MRI revealed that the quantity of hyaluronic acid fillers they had received had increased.
“Well, so water is key to keeping my filler,” said someone who was retained.
“I tell people that I only had my lips done three times, 0.5 ml each time and that it’s been five years since then, and my lips are still the same because it DOES NOT DISSOLVE,” the viewer confessed.
“All injectors said it would only last 6 months when it first came out,” a netizen wrote. “That’s what the filler companies were telling us,” the medical expert replied.
“I got chin filler ONCE a decade ago, and I’ve never needed a touch-up since,” said one onlooker. It hasn’t changed over this whole period.
In response, someone else said, “I got my lips done eight years ago. It is still present today.
Fillers have grown in popularity over time.
Images of Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes’s older and more current photos started to surface online this year, and the couple had to face the wrath of social media beauty evaluators last month.
Meredith West, a physician assistant with a Master of Science degree and fifteen years of expertise in injectables and plastic surgery, posted a joint clip with Mountcastle Medical Resort, a medical resort located in Virginia, on her Instagram page on March 29.
The married pair appeared somewhat “puffier” than they had in the past in the “before and after” pictures from the movie, which appeared to depict a significant shift in their physical appearance.
Meredith captioned the Reel, “I assume they’ve both had recent cosmetic procedures.”
The representative explained, saying, “I think Eva might have had facial surgery (possibly a facelift +/- fat grafting), and they both probably had Botox and facial fillers.”
Hyaluronic acid is the main ingredient of injectable fillers that are most widely used.

The NHS states that injections of botulinum toxin, such as Botox, relax the muscles in the face to reduce wrinkles and lines such as crow’s feet and frown lines.
Excessive use of Botox and fillers might have negative effects. According to Nurse Gemavie, using too much Botox can cause extreme muscular paralysis that might impede facial expression and give the illusion of being manufactured.
In March 2023, Allure reported that dermatologist Jessica Weiser stated, “we see a good amount of [overdone filler], unfortunately.” It looks to have “that classic pillow-face appearance—very puffy with strange anatomic proportions.”
According to Allure, while many variables lead to the disorder, some injectors’ poor judgment is unquestionably a major contributing factor.
Meredith captioned her potential Ryan-Eva cosmetic surgery clip, saying, “I think they both looked amazing before and didn’t need anything other than a little preventative toxin and maybe some biostim (i.e., Sculptra) for collagen stimulation.”
Naturally, medical-grade skincare products are also included, such as CO2, radiofrequency, laser, and microneedling for maintenance and prevention.
Jonny Betteridge, an aesthetics specialist, is one of the medical experts who has offered commentary on the Barbie star’s physical metamorphosis.
The 43-year-old actor was discussed by Jonny in a Reel that was posted on March 28 and had 2.2 million views. The actor discussed how his visage has altered over time.
Examining Ryan’s older photos, the physician noted, “He’s always had very masculine-looking features, well-structured cheekbones, a squared-off jawline, and a wide chin.”
Using a volumetric study, Dr. Parsa analyzed the fillers in a patient who was 33 years old.
Jonny went on, “This mid-face flatness is a certain part of his face that is very characteristic of his appearance.”
Again, this is apparent when the face has a sunken appearance.
“Most of my patients who come in for treatments have mid-face restorations utilizing dermal filler in these four areas.”
“I’m attempting to restore the cheekbones’ volume and structure.”
The doctor went on, saying, “Notice a change in this area of the face where it looks much fuller and less sunken,” suggesting that the actor had most likely had filler injections about 2021.
The beauty specialist went on to remark that in recent years, the Canadian native’s visage has grown increasingly “overfilled.”
Jonny remarked, “It’s obvious to see the change in his facial proportions and the fullness to his cheeks and mid-face.” “When someone smiles, it exacerbates this even more, and this look is typical of what I see when someone has had too much filler put in this area.”
“Me and my fillers panicking [right now],” remarked one individual.
