I have had my lips filled several times over the course for the last 5 years. Over this last year, I had my lips dissolved with hyaluronidase due to a shadow over my upper lip which I assumed was migration. After the first time dissolving, the shadow persisted. I had them dissolved for a second time a month later. The shadow persists. I am wondering what can be done to treat this shadow.

Dear Sunshinee1994,
I perform a lot of lip injections with fillers such as juvederm and it works great. Many times I need to put more in one side than the other to attempt to even out the vermillion border (The red line of the lip). This helps provide more symmetry at times.For patients looking...
You could try a lip flip of your upper lip in the interim. If this is not enough you could consider a little additional filler to the upper lip, but this should be done conservatively to look natural.
Hi and welcome to our forum!From your photos, I note that some demonstrate a degree of swelling, others not so much. Hyaluronic acid fillers can be dissolved with hyaluronidase injections if necessary. Otherwise, the material will spontaneously dissolve on its own at 6-12 months post injection....
