Is It Ok to Inject a Double Amount of Filler into the Lips at a Time?

AlexaNic
I have had my lips enlarged twice within 1 month, because only after the second injection I was happy with the fullness/size of my lips. (1 ml Restylane was injected into both lower and upper lip per visit). I am wondering if it's possible to have those 2 portions combined next time I have my filler done. Are there any risks related to the increased doze (uneven lips or smth similar)?
