“1cc Not Enough! Looked Great at First but Went to Regular Size ”

Not Worth It
Spent: $399 in San Diego, CA

Looked great the first couple of days when slightly swollen. Perhaps because I was thinking of supermodel big lips I'm not satisfied. After a few days it felt like the size went down to my normal lip size. Okay, lips are a tiny bit fuller.

I'm going to give it another try, I had 1cc so I'm thinking of getting 2cc done next time. Dr. {registered users see above} has great rates so I will be back for more. Anyone have any recommendations, please let me know!

My Doctor:

no lips no lips
lips, 1cc restylane 1 week after lips, 1cc restylane 1 week after

To be honest I do not see any difference. I think you can still add more volume.

Good call, Mary. Do you use fillers? (I get the same question all the time. . .so I had to ask.)

yes I do. my "real lips" look good too but I like to have more volume 8)

It does look like you could use more volume and still look very natural. Your lips should look incredible with just one more mL. If you don't need all of it, they should be able to save whatever is unused. Post more pics. They'll be great!

I will try that next time. Not sure if I should wait for this 1st cc to wear off in about 4mo., or get the 2nd Resylane shot now.

If you want a little more volume, have some put in now. If you like the new size. . .then you know what you are shooting for. Remember, you can save anything that is left over. If you wait until it's "gone", you'll likely be only slightly better or the same than you are now.
