After Juvederm, Top Lip Developed Little Saggy Flaps - Is This Normal?

Eton
I recently had Juvederm injected (0.5CC) (5 days ago) as I wanted a fuller top lip, the sides were quite thin. The swelling has gone down but the lips sags on either side (where the two injections were) like there's a small sack on either side, but the top middle looks missing. Is this likely to be swelling, should I be massaging this to even it out or is it possible that the Juvederm is doing it's job but i should of had more injected into the top middle for a complete look?
