Thanks for your question and for including the photo as well. Wealways tell our patients that if they have any concerns, at any time after the procedure, that they should come in for an evaluation, for a comparison with the before pictures, and then we can determine if more filler might be needed or some of the filler dissolved to even things out. You should be having these procedures done in the offices of board certified dermatologists or plastic surgeons as we understand the fillers better than anyone else and we understand the anatomy better than anyone – which is crucial in lip augmentation.

The lips do not look bad to me. If you are unhappy with the way they look now and think they need more filler, then you should see your doctor.
