Acid Injection for Removal of Lip Liner?

I had my full lips done one week ago and the top lip liner is too high, the woman who did this said that it should be fine after they heal (6weeks) but if not she can inject acid to take the color out. Is this safe? I am concerned of acid being injected into my lip. Is there anything I can do now that will help the removal of this in future? How successful is the laser removal? Please help, it would be gratley appreciated. Thank you.
