I typically purchase one syringe to fill my facial scars and generally about 1/2 a syringe does the trick. I have also been interested in using Juvederm for my lips, but don't know if I want to take the full 1 syringe plunge since it goes so far for my face and I don't want obviously large lips for my small face. Can she use half of the syringe on my face and then use the remainder to give me an idea on how I would enjoy Juvederm in my lips?

Many things can effect the subtle differences over time including age, weight loss or gain, environmental factors, etc. I encourage you to discuss your concerns with your injector so that adjustments can be made to help you achieve the results you are wanting.
When scheduling future filler treatments it is a good idea to begin a prescription beforehand of Valtrex, or similar medication, as a preventative for cold sores. I recommend contacting your injector for an evaluation.
In my opinion, the duckish protruding upper lip is not attractive and because it is unnatural it is a give-away that someone has filler in their lips. Sometimes too much filler is placed in the lip or in the white area above the lip or the filler injected is too thick and stiff for the lips....
