I've had a small scar above my lip for over 40 yrs and it was never noticed. I've gotten juvaderm, vollure, a& volbella injected into my upper lip area 5 times in the last 2 years. My scar is noticeably larger and more raised. Have these fillers caused the formation of collagen to adhere to my scar? It's not just that the fillers have pushed the scar outwards, it is definitely larger in shape.It's vertical in my infranasal depression & has gotten longer & thicker.I'm hoping to get fraxel on it

My personal opinion would be if you do not mind this slightly larger side, I would add a small amount of product to the smaller side to improve symmetry. I believe this has a tendency to be more accurate in correction than trying to dissolve the slightly larger side of the lip.
Good luck!
I'm sorry to hear of the issues you are having. I would contact your injector for a follow up. If the areas are not bruises you may be able to use lightning creams or lasers to improve them.
