WHAT ARE ULTRASOUND-GUIDED HIGH-RISK FILLER INJECTIONS?

High-risk filler zones — like the tear troughs, nose, temples, chin, nasolabial folds, and midface — sit dangerously close to major blood vessels, nerves, and deep anatomical structures. Traditional injections rely on anatomical estimation, which varies from person to person.

At plump medical spa, Dr. Amir performs all high-risk injections with Butterfly iQ3, an AI-enhanced high-frequency ultrasound device that shows vessel position, filler depth, and structural layers in real time. This dramatically increases both safety and precision, resulting in cleaner, more natural, and more predictable results.

All ultrasound-guided filler injections are priced per syringe.
Pricing reflects the added precision, safety mapping, and doctor-only technique using the Butterfly iQ3 ultrasound system.

WHY HIGH-RISK AREAS NEED ULTRASOUND

These areas have the highest complication rates when done blindly:

• Tear trough (risk: swelling, Tyndall, migration)

• Nose (risk: occlusion, necrosis, blindness)

• Temples (risk: vascular injury)

• Midface (risk: overfilling, chronic puffiness)

• NLF (risk: vascular proximity)

• Chin (risk: asymmetry, heavy projection)

• Jawline (risk: superficial placement or nodules)

Ultrasound lets Dr. Amir see:

• Vessel location

• Depth of the correct filler plane

• Whether old filler is already present

• Migration pattern

• Any anatomical variations

• Scar tissue or fibrosis

This removes the guesswork and elevates the injection to a guided medical procedure, not an estimation.

AREAS BEST TREATED WITH ULTRASOUND-GUIDED INJECTION

1. Tear Troughs

Stops migration and prevents superficial placement.

2. Nose (Liquid Rhinoplasty)

Maps the dorsal artery and prevents dangerous plane violations.

3. Temples

Identifies temporal vessels and fascia layers.

4. Nasolabial Folds

Determines whether filler is appropriate or if the arteries are too close.

5. Chin & Pre-Jowl Sulcus

Guides deep, correct-plane placement for sculpted results.

6. Jawline

Ensures perfect depth for contouring without lumps.

7. Midface

Prevents overfilling and keeps results lifting rather than weighing the face down.

WHY BUTTERFLY iQ3 IS SUPERIOR FOR SAFETY

Butterfly iQ3 offers:

• AI-enhanced real-time imaging

• High-frequency detail for superficial structures

• Identification of arteries and veins

• Layer-by-layer depth mapping

• Visualization of existing filler

• Real-time confirmation of injection plane

This ensures every syringe is placed exactly where it needs to be — no more, no less.

WHY PATIENTS CHOOSE ULTRASOUND-GUIDED INJECTIONS

• Safer and more accurate
• Ideal for complex anatomies
• Prevents overfilling and migration
• Doctor-only injections
• Protects investment by ensuring correct placement
• Perfect for patients who previously had complications
• Produces natural, subtle results
