Juvederm lip filler moustache/shadow? I can’t tell if it’s the filler itself or the shadow that it’s casting? (Photos)

I got my lips injected 3 times w/ juvederm ultra. Naturally I have very thin lips, my top lip was down turned. My issue is the shadow effect or fullness above my top lip. I did not have my vermillion border injected & was advised it may give me a ducky look. I don’t understand why some patients get this “mustache effect” & some can achieve huge lips without affecting the area above the lip. Why does the border of my top lip look puffed out? I went to a highly rated Black Diamond injector .
