“"duck mouth" - traumatized by juvederm injections”
Lip augmentation: NOT worth it
Pain: Severe
Horrible experience. Can't wait to look normal again. I wish I read this website before getting the procedure. Instead of covering a wrinkle on top of my lip, now I have uneven lips (one side fatter), lumps and have been depressed and self-concious since I had it done. Not even makeup covered the bruises and I had them for 2 weeks.
The procedure is painful (4 shots to numb you, 2 on your chicks and 2 inside the lips), expensive and not worth it. I wish I had my old self again.
Now I hear that there is a solution that is inyected to dissolve the lumps (hyaluronidase), but I am concerned that it would give me some more bruises and I already missed work because I was so embarrased to be stared at with my duck mouth.
If I have the hyalunoridase solution inyected, would I bruise again like I did when I had the juveder inyected?

I only had a couple of "cigarrete lines" that I wanted to hide. Now people stare at me wondering why I paid to look like this!

This experience has made me decide to never try any fillers again. Not only they are expensive, it's a flip of the coin to get good results and I am not willing to take another chance.
