Am I stuck with duck lips after a combo of the vermillion border, and actual lip injections? (Photo)

Asked By:Ihartchrs in Roswell, GA

Hi, I had my vermillion border filled a week ago instead of the actual lip part. I have never gotten my lips filled before, and the Dr. assured me this was the way to go. I could see no difference after the procedure. So, a few days later I went back and got Restalyne injected in red part of lip. It's been 3 1/2 days and I look like a duck. Will this go away without vitrase? And if not, am I able to get vitrase injected only in vermillion border? Thanks in advance!
