I had my first lip injection ever with Juvederm back in June. He used 1 syringe for both bottom and top. It is now November and I feel like my lips are small and they're not the look that I am going for. I am wanting to achieve bigger fuller lips similar to Irina Shayk (had a computer image done), but I'm afraid my doctor won't allow me to go that big. Are lip injections something you have to build up over time? How often can I get them done to achieve the desired look that I want?

It looks as if you've had too much juvderm injected. I would return to your surgeon for hyaluronidase to dissolve the excess. If you don't feel comfortable with your original injector then you may want to search out another surgeon. Best, Dr. Nazarian
Thank you for your question. Since the volume aspect has been covered at length below, I'd like to comment on your rash. From the pics it look like you have perleche (angular cheilitis) - there are many known causes of perleche it is most often due to an infection either final or...
Hi Lee,
I would wait to see what happens a few weeks after your injection. These lines may go away if you've never had them before. But, look up Restylane Defyne. It's the perfect product for the deep line you are pointing to. Best regards!
