I recently had a doctor fill the area above my top lip. He said I had rivets in the area and needed “blending”, is this a common thing to do? This created a line and more puffiness above my lip. Do I need this dissolved and will I have to dissolve my upper lip as well? I also have chin and prejowl filler that I think has made my lower face appear more masculine. How can I fix the appearance of this? Can I dissolve some of it? See before and after photos

Hello !
It's true that overusing/overfilling lip filler can lead to permanent stretching of the lip skin. However, it is possible to address this issue through surgical intervention, which involves removing any excess skin from the lips.
I hope this helps,
Best of luck !
Hello !
I would advise you to wait until you are completely healed from the liplift and there is no more residual swelling. Consult with your original plastic surgeon.
Best of luck,
