How Long After Juvederm in Lips Will It Take for my Smile Not to Feel Stiff? (photo)

Natural2011
I got my injection 2 days ago and some of the swelling has gone down. When I smile, it pulls and feels stiff. Will it soften? Also, when I look down, it feels heavy. Does that mean I got too much? It doesn't look like too much from the front. From the side I feel a bit duckish , especially when I smile, but that could be the swelling. Thoughts? Should I go have some removed or wait it out and see if it softens and improves?
