I have an uneven top lip because of Articol lip injections over 10 years ago. Will my lip ever go back to the way it was?(photo)

14 years ago I got an Articol upper lip injection. Almost immediately it bubbled to one side and left a large hard bump. I went back to the doctor and she tried to dissolve the Articol but it didn't do much. So I left it alone and I was told it would probably last 10 years. I am scared to get more fillers to try to even the lip out. Is there anything I can do besides fillers to try to "loosen" the Articol up so it eventually dissolves on its own? Anything I can do at home?
