I had one bad lip filler experience from a Dr. who came highly recommended for my 31st birthday. Since that time I have had two separate visits with two different highly certified Doctors whom both were unable to fix the problem. My last correctional visit actually made it more pronounced. My smile line dips down on one side and the other goes up in an almost a duck like curve. My bank account in draining with each new attempt, but not as fast as my confidence. Help please.

Answer: Evening Out the Lips Hi KeKeith,Since I do not have your full pre-treatment history, I will base my opinion solely for the available photos. Based from the photos alone, you have asymmetry of the chin and cheek and I assume, you also have asymmetry of the upper lip to begin with. There are some lip anatomy that are actually not good candidates for filler injection, particularly lips that have hidden red lip that is pointing downward. Fillers most of the time make this kind of lip look longer horizontally. I am assuming this is the case for the left side of your lip (left side on the photo), that's why filler was not able to improve it but rather, worsen it to your observation.If you do not have the asymmetry to begin with, and your current condition is merely caused by fillers, you can just wait for the filler to dissolve or have an injection of Hyaluronidase if you used HA based fillers.
