Results After One Week of Restylane in my Lips - Las Vegas, NV

I love the shape of my lips but they are thin. I was very affraid of the "duck" look some people get with fillers so I did a lot of research before I decided to go ahead with the procedure. I scheduled with Dr. Rueckl - got the appointment for the next day. He was very friendly and informative, which made me feel very comfortable to get the procedure done. I had two numbing shots which was the longest part of the consultation - waiting for my lips to get numb. The procedure itself took less than 2 minutes - seriously, it was quick! I used one full syringe of Restylane. He explained the swelling and bruising are normal and it could be worse the next day - and definitely was. Actually the brusing is not completely gone yet, but the swelling went down pretty much 48h after the procedure. I t's all documented in pictures.
So no surprises, everything he said could happen, did happen.. He was very informative and true to what I should expect. But the only thing that I missed being informed is that one syringe isn't enough. Really! As you see, my before and after within 7 days apart still has some bruising and little change.. So for fuller lips, definitely one syringe doesn't do the job, at least didn't do for me. I mean, I am happy that I didn't end up with the duck face that I am so affraid of, or uneven lips.. But wish my lips were fuller.
I realized that it doesn't matter how many reviews and videos you watch about a procedure, every person has their own results and sometimes the expectations you create based on other people's experience will get you disappointed.
