I had only one side of my marionette line injected and I look uneven. What can I do?

RoxyjJul 10, 2015
Yesterday I had a 1/2syringe of juvederm put in my subtle folds & the left side of my face near my mouth has a bit of dimple which is progressing into a very little marionette line, the doc added less then .1cc along the corner of my mouth, I dont know if its the swelling or the placement or the slight bruising but it looks off! I'm comparing to the side that doesnt have the marionette line or filler with the other side with the swelling and filler makes my face look unsymmetrical/bigger on 1 side

Dear jlynn, Your upper lip certainly does look a little too full at this stage. Give it 3 weeks and see how it settles. If it's still not in proportion to your lower lip, you can dissolve out some of the Juvederm with tiny injections of hyaluronidase enzyme. I wouldn't recommend injecting more...
