Lip filler not working, is this possible? Is it possible that my body dissolved the filler?

Asked By:0824127720 in South Africa, ZA

I have been to 4 different doctored to fill my lips I told each of them I want very full lips but I have never been able to get the desired look. The last doctor said I have an enzyme in my body that is breaking down the filler and no matter how much they put in I will never get the desired lips that I so desperately want. Please can you clarify this for me.
