Great But Doesn't Seem To Last - Carmel, IN

Really good results with Juvederm XC. Metabolizes slowly but doesn't last as long as I would like (a few months).

Tell tale signs of injection (the two bumps at the top of the upper lip. I use an entire syringe in my upper lip, but have had good results using one third of a syringe in just the middle underneath the philtrum.

My lips are naturally full so this just makes them look fuller and poutier.

Great review?

Triste - Really great, makes it as painless as possible, very very fast and the swelling goes down pretty quickly.

Wow that's a lot time, a few years?  I'll try that next.

Juvederm Ultra lasts a long time in my lips. Maybe try that one or the Ultra Plus. It lasted a few years for me.

Hi Brooklyn!  Can we see a picture of your lips to see the results by chance?

Hi Brooklyn,

I have heard from other community members that working quite a bit can make fillers not stay in your system as long as one would hope. I'm not sure if you work out a lot, but other community members have mentioned that. Otherwise I am really happy to hear things went so well. We'd love to see pictures.

Thanks so much and enjoy the rest of your week!
