I had 1 syringe of Restylane injected into my top lip (one month apart) and 0.5 syringe of Restylane injected into my nasolabial folds. I wanted to enhance a thin upper lip and minimize the wrinke forming in my nasolabial fold.

Three days after getting Restylane injections into my upper lip and nasolabial folds, I feel like there is little to no difference between how I looked before and after the injection. My lips and face looked great immediately after the treatment, but I was advised that both would "go down some" within the next couple of days as the swelling disappeared.

I would like to know if there are people who can just absorb the product that quickly and if that's what happened to me. Or if it is possible that the shape of my upper lip causes the product to "drop" towards the inside of my mouth, leaving little volume in the visible part of my lip.
Great review?

I know how you feel! It happen to me also. If the Doctor wouldn't give your money back, maybe we can contact the company. Bad batch?
