Does collagen formed from lip fillers go away?

Cute80692Sep 2, 2022
I was injected with 1mL of Versa in my lips 7 months ago and they haven’t dissolved very much yet. If collagen is produced as a result of the Versa filler, will the collagen eventually go away and how long will this take? I really want to return to baseline without dissolver. Also, will 1mL cause even the slightest of stretching or change to my original lip once it dissolves?
