Why won't the edge of my lip take to the filler?

Asked By:daisychainlady in London, GB

Hi. I have had 3 treatments of Juvederm in my lips, primarily the top lip. The results have been pretty underwhelming, but I think this is because my upper lip is long. However my question is: why is the filler not taking to the outer side of my top right lip? In the photos you can see the right side is flat, whilst the left side is filled. The docs have tried to add more filler to this side only but nothing works. It won't take. Note: the mark on my bottom right lip is an old scar, not relevant.
