Upper lip looks like a duck lip 5 days after Neauvia fillers (Photo)

Question

So 5 days ago I got .5ml of Neauvia on my lips and I loved how they looked right after but now it seems my upper lip looks bigger and sticks out more than my lower lip, I'm not sure if it's because the lower lip healed quicker or because I had more filled put into my upper lip either way I don't like the look of it and I'm wondering if I should wait it out and see if it goes down or get some filler dissolved on my top lip :/ help !

Thank you for your question, and your photos.  You are early in your post procedure course.  Usually the patient sees the start of the neuromodulators, (Botox Dysport, Xeomin), working at day 4.  The fillers usually see some result early, but some modulation continues.  In our office we have patients come back at 2 weeks for their check on their neuromodulator or filler.  At that point, most of the swelling is usually down, and we have an idea of the result.  This may be delayed if the patient has a bruise.  Often, asymmetry and lumps can be improved.  Please make sure your well trained, experienced injector knows your current status.Jeffrey J.
