Restylane Injections Only Lasted Three Days?

Kascade
So my sister and I both had Restylene injections for our lips the same day and same person. (A nurse/aesthetician who is the surgeons wife)It looked great but after three days it had completely absorbed. I had a consultation years later with her and her husband who is a plastic surgeon and he suggested a fat transfer but I've heard mixed things. Is there a reason why it lasted three days? My sister tried Juvederm as well and same thing, more money! Are there any other options?
