A well-reviewed MD once made a mess of my face with fillers. Most resolved with follow up elsewhere or naturally, however she injected Juvederm into the cupid’s bow area of my lip. Over time, the filler spread and made my lip look unnatural, but not worried since it is not permanent. It has been 5 years and it is still there and caused wrinkles outlining the filler.
