Will I see a difference with half a ml of Juvederm in my lips? (photos)

Asked By:Lyssbyss21 in San Luis Obispo, California
I have an appointment at the end of this month for lip injections with juvaderm. I am very nervous as I do not want to look like a duck. Plus I start school 3 days later. I want to start subtle with just a half ml. But would I even notice a difference? It's $200 for a half ml, and am concerned I would end up spending a lot more because I won't see any difference and end up coming back. Do you think starting with a half ml is a good idea?

Hi. There's no link I'm aware between early loss of filler and steroids.Possibly, the anti-inflammatory effect of the steroids reduced a little of the post-injection swelling you were seeing, making the lips look less full.All the best,
I think it's possible since you didn't have any filler Injected where it's mottling and it doesn't seem like an allergic reaction. It's possible one of the ascensing arteries is affected. You skin tone looks good. I would call your injector and have him or her see you soon to evaluate this.
