When Lip Fillers Are Dissolved, What Will My Lips Look Like?

M
Mohd_JOct 17, 2015

I'm thinking of getting lip fillers since my upper lip is quite thin and my lower lip is kind of uneven. I was wondering, will I be able to make my lower lip even and how will my lips look like after the effect of the filler is gone? Will they look the same as they did before getting fillers or will they be just a bit smaller than they were after getting fillers?
