Is it possible to fill vertical lip lines and defining vermillion line without adding a lot of volume? (photos)

CarolinaGirl848
I'm a 52 yo noticing vertical lip lines and a little loss of volume, but I like the shape of my (natural) upper lip, and don't want to end up with a pout. I've had good results with Radiesse in nasolabial folds, but not sure that's what's needed here? I was working my way up into the teens % wise on TCA peel levels, but have not done one in a year. I'd like to fill the lines and define vermillion line but not add much volume to upper lip. Suggestions appreciated!
