Only got filler in vermillion border, now my lips look like a fish. (photos)

JBtotheRescue
I'm 39 and looking to recapture volume that was lost. I let my injector do what she thought was best. She only injected the vermillion border of top and bottom lips and a small amount in my "smokers lines". My entire mouth looks bigger now, and fishlike. I got more "real estate" to my lips but not more volume. After more research, I think this technique was the wrong decision. What is the best way to correct this? Remove the Juvederm or add more to the vermillion? 10 days post.
