Lip filler from 3 months ago looks off. Should I let it dissolve on its own or use an enzyme to dissolve it? (photos)

Asked By:Exciting758 in Morton, Illinois

I got lip filler three months ago in my lips and the area surrounding my mouth as I was told it would help balance everything out. I think it looks off, but am nervous about the enzyme to dissolve. Should I wait for it to dissolve on it’s own or is this a poor result? I believe the product was restylane. Thank you.
