Juvederm lip injections lasted a week?

missmoofie
my jaw alignment makes my upper lip appear small. i'm 17. i have been told i needed surgery on my jaw. but no one notices it excpet me and doctors.... lol. b/c of this jaw alignment which makes my upper lip appear small, i have gotten juvederm (xc i believe) injected twice now. 1st i got 1/2 syringe, then about 6 months later a full syringe b/c 1/2 syringe was not enough. the plump look seems to go away after a week or less. honestly-what should i do. get more-2 syringes perhaps? or an implant?
