Is It Possible to Decrease Silicone Injection on Lips?
asked 3 years ago by joearley09 in Somewhere, United States

Question viewed 749 times
I got silicone injections on my lips. The first time I went, they didn’t add any into my top middle lip. So I went back a 2nd time to have them add it there and I think they added more everywhere. Those are the only 2 times I’ve done it, so it’s not like I kept going & over did it. Is there ANY way to decrease the size? Not fully remove it all, but if I could decrease them at all, I’d be so happy.

Treatment of silicone in lips
The silicone in your lip is now causing an inflammatory reaction that can be treated. I have treated many patients in your situation with outstanding results. I would seek a qualified surgeon to address the silicone.

The effect of silicone in your lips may be improved.
Dear Joearley,
I'm so sorry you had a bad experience with liquid silicone injections to your lips.
Was this performed by a board-certified physician experienced in the proper application of liquid silicone? Did you receive Silikon-1000?
Unfortunately, you were given way too much product to have such an overdone appearance after only 2 treatments.
Your upper lip is overcorrected, and your lower lip looks fine. Most of the problem is just that your upper lip is larger than your lower lip....
