Correcting strange appearances after unbalancede Juvederm and other fillers

What you are refering to is probably the result of common practice in the fillers industry: placing filler in a roll in the pink part of the lip without addressing the area between the nose and lip creates a bazarre appearance. The subunit of the lip begins at the base of the nose and goes to the chin. As we age the entire upper lip thins and if this thinning is not addresssed when volume is added to the lip, is can appear strange, elongated and even rippled depending on the... more
