I had juvederm put in my lips last Thursday (5 days ago).normally my lips are a bit asymmetrical (my right side is a bit thinner) the doctor said he would correct this and that's why I agreed to get fillers, however now my left side look much more bigger and the asymmetry is even more visible. it is driving me crazy. should I go back to the doctor. Could this be still from swelling? can someone fix this? I am in NJ
