At least from the photos provided, it would be a rather easy treatment for an experienced injector of HA fillers to fill the indentation and establish symmetry between the two sides. You would be wise, however, to make sure that you consult with a board certified cosmetic dermatologist injector. Too many people who have not done their "due diligence" can end up in the hands of cut-rate, novice injectors and risk coming away with "duck lips" or "sausage lips." Hope this helps.
Most doctors will start with one-syringe to avoid overfilling. These fillers, (Volbella, Restylane, Juvederm) are good to create a symmetrical and full lip. PDO NovaThreads can also be used to improve shape and also provide lift. Fat or implants are a permanent alternative. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a facial sculpting expert.

Dear Phlox,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 for a more long lasting result, I recommend fat grafting. That is, using your own bodies fat to make your lips naturally look more shapely. The bonus is that the results last many many years.In general, I avoid using permanent prosthesis because I find that the lips are such dynamic and sensitive structures, the end result is not natural.Daniel Barrett, MDCertified, American Board of Plastic SurgeryMember, American Society of Plastic SurgeryMember, American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery

Make an appointment with your Dermatologist and have an evaluation and see if you are a candidate for Hydroquinone. If you're just noticing it and it has been 3 years since filler it would not be related. Best of luck!

Yes, you should be able to continue with facial lip fillers at any time as long as you are healing appropriately. It is always a good idea to check with your surgeon as opinions may vary and she/he is most familiar with the details of your surgery and how you've been progressing through recovery.
Hi there,I think it would be important to find out the type of filler you had injected.Once you know this info, you may consider trying a different filler next time as you may have a mild sensitivity to the product.Also, this looks like a broken capillary that may be from injection site. You...
