My Juvederm Lip filling journey started over 2...

My Juvederm Lip filling journey started over 2 years ago, prior to the Juvederm filler I couldn't wear lipstick without it looking like a thin , unattractive straight line, when I smiled my upper lip disappeared. I was beyond pleased with my first treatment, especially the longevity of the result . Within the last month or so my lips were looking thinner. I still had an upper lip, but in my opinion it needed to be replenished. Today I'm very happy with my rejuvenated lips, and now with the 2nd syringe in the mix, I'm ecstatic my once shriveled, sagging mouth area is rejuvenated as well. I believe I look more youthful. I will post full face pics next week when the injection sites are healed. I paraphrased my patient doc interaction below. I highly recommend using Juvederm to target specific areas of concern.

My abbreviated interaction with doctor. Me: Hello Dr. Q , I need my lips done. Dr. Q: Its good to see you, how are you?, you look good.. hmm your lips still look pretty good too, you don't need a full syringe, maybe come back in a few months. Me: I agree they still look ok, considering I had no upper lip 2 years ago, but I want them refreshed! really i do! , I want to be vampish, and I dont mean as in the old shoe definition. Dr. Q: Ok, lets see what we can do. We can use 1/2 of the Juvederm for your upper lip, I can balance out your upper lip's left side, and use what's left to fill the wrinkled indentation here (as he points to the corner of my mouth) Me: (the light bulb just went on) really?? hmmm soooo, Dr. Q what can we do for the remaining indents, creases that are around my mouth , will Juvederm address that? Dr. Q : Yes it will, Juvederm will help smooth out the area, if it's something that really bothers you I can inject a 2nd syringe to fill the marionette line here, the crease here and here( as he points and touches the areas).. Me: YES!! lets do it!. Dr. Q : since we are doing 2 syringes, I will give you $50 off . Me: thanks, thats awesome! The actual procedure was painless, his nurse Jen is an angel, helping me ice pre-procedure and speaking to me in her signature reassuring manner during the procedure. The procedure was done within a few minutes. The rest is history.. I know a long review for lips/filler. I just feel very fortunate I have Dr. Q in my corner while Father Time's hands reign havoc on my face. I trust Dr. Q's opinion and direction, his surgery skills ( he performed my upper eye bleph/lower lid fat grafting/chemical peel last year) , and injection skills unequivocally . His patient coordinator Libby is extra amazing, she actually made my appointment within a day of me calling, she will make things happen, go the extra mile for you. Libby has a very calming and caring personality, as soon as you walk in she greets you with her bubbly and sweet welcome. Libby made sure I was comfortable in the chair while waiting, offering me coffee, water. we chatted like old friends. There isn't a section for 10 stars..so Im putting them here: Dr. Qaqish 10 Stars for his infinite level of patience with me, his caring nature , and for understanding and putting up with my motive operandi (fussy, frugal patient syndrome) . Dr. Q is a board certified cosmetic surgeon, to have a doctor of this caliber performing filler and botox at an affordable price, equates to finding a rare gem. He can offer me the sun and moon, a plethora of body and face procedures, push for the slice and dice.. but thankfully he graciously lets me lead in the direction I want to go, this makes him an excellent listener , very cognisant of my cosmetic enhancing goals. In time I plan on having my neck and lower face lift done., im very excited about that too.. until then Im content with the non-invasive procedures he has available.
