Can I Get "Pouty Lips" from Juvederm?

6 days ago i recieved 1 and 1/2 syringes of juvederm in my lips. I have had the typical bruising and swelling and totally expected that. That is listed by the makers of the product and I knew to expect it.

I did not expect the drastic loss of fullness once the swelling went down. I love the look of my lips as far as they are beautifully smooth. But wow the size is gone they look like my regular lips with a ever so slight pout and smooth. That's great but not what I was told and not what i paid $800 for. If I pay that kind of money I expect more results. I almost feel cheated and cheated more by the makers of the product than by the doctor. The doctors can't promise anything, they go on experience and what the makers tell them. I was told what I recieved was a lot compaired to other patients. My doctor told me most start with one syrnge. I go tomorrow to try and get what I went for.

I don't know how much more to do or am I wasting my money and this will always happen once the swelling is gone? How much does it take to look pouty? Please help me. I was so excited and now I feel like I want to cry, it has been a huge let down.

Juvederm lips - Do they look better now than before?

Do you look better now than before you got it? That is the question.

Improvement from how you looked before is all that Juvederm - or any filler for that matter - can do. Yes, it is true that all patients look better right after the treatment when there is a lot of extra swelling and the lips look real full, red,... more

Pouty lip augmentation

Lip augmentation has several goals in order to achieve beautiful lips. Pout is one of the features of a sexy lip and can be achieved with hyaluronic acid fillers such as Juvederm, Restylane, or Perlane. There are several techniques that a surgeon may use to inject the lips with these fillers and one of them techniques improved the pout of the lip.

Juvederm and Lip Augmentation

Any temporary filler in the lips is a tricky thing. Unfortunately immediately after injection you will have some amount of swelling. What you want to see are the photos before the injections to see the change from your previous state. I would be very surprised if there is no change. Unfortunately we easily forget what we looked like only a few days ago, especially when something is changed. If you think you want more filler, go for it, but expect to pay more. Unfortunately those are... more

Juvederm in the lips

Juvederm injected into the lips is a great way to augment the lips. I would not be upset with anyone other than the expectations that you had from the amount that was injected. If you feel you need more to get the desired appearance than speak with your doctor, but expect to pay more. Each syringe is very expensive and some patients do require more to get the desired effect.
