I injured my upper lip a few years ago and ever since my vermillion border has faded and the lip has dropped on one side. Also I have never smoked but I have started age related/ inherited vertical lip lines which together with my scar make my lip line look jagged. Can volbella fix the vermillion border and asymmetry or will it enhance it. My Lips are thin so I don't mind a little more volume over all but don't want anything extreme. Thanks
