I hate looking unnatural and right now I feel like my lips look very fake. I think there is too much filler in the center of my mouth but not enough in the corners. I'm afraid that adding more filler will just make the problem worse.

Adding More Fillers vs. Dissolving It

  Hi and thank you for your question! The key here is knowing when you got the injections. If it was done within the last 2 weeks, you need to wait as there might still be some residual swelling and the look of the lips is not final yet. If it has been 2 weeks or more, then the best approach is to do a follow up with your injecting doctor for a more accurate assessment. The beauty of hyaluronic acid fillers is that we can easily make further adjustments or revisions if needed to achieve a more desirable look. I hope it helps and good luck!
