Physician advises against dissolving lip filler saying it could make my lips worse. Is that true? (photos)

February 6, 2018
Asked By:ddallasm in Los Angeles, CA

I want to get my lips dissolved because my top lip looks fake and unnatural. I'm being told that if I do, it could make my lips look "worse." Is she pulling my leg? It's the same office who injected me in the first place. She also said that my Juvederm from about a year ago (which was practically dissolved) caused my lips to enunciate the way it did after injecting me with Volbella.
