I had 1 syringe of Juvederm Vobella injected into my lips two days ago. I always had a very beautiful lip with a great shape but wanted to add some volume and plumpness to my lips - Especially the top lip. I had the procedure done on Thursday and now on Saturday, I feel like this could be a huge mistake. My lips are lumpy and lopsided and look downright awful. My smile is terrible and I am questioning what I did to my face. I feel like I've completely ruined my look. Are my lips still adjusting? My husband is a dentist and is saying that I'm still experiencing inflammation and swelling and that it should "go down"...

I forgot something in the original post - I initially had half a syringe injected over one week ago. I was unhappy with the results as half a syringe really didn't do much for me. Exactly a week after, I had another half syringe injected. Could this be a contributing factor to my sausage lip look?

U should have left perfection alone. You had lovely shaped lips. This is not a result of bad injection. This is a result of a pretty girl listening to what the media is saying about what women are supposed to look like, feels she's not good enough and messes up her beautiful lips that her mother gave her just so she can feel as pretty as what she sees on tv.
I'm really hope the swelling goes away and you get your desired result. You seem like a really nice lady and its horrible to have to go through this. In my opinion, please don't do this again. At least not with the same doctor.

Thank you so much for your comment.
The injector is suggesting we heat the lumpy area up with a laser (Skin Genesis) to make the Juvederm more malleable and smooth out the bumps.
I hope this works out - I feel devastated as I cannot stand the look of my own smile right now.

Hi. I also think that your lipd before the procedure were perfect. Your husband might be right that it's swelling and the size of your lips will decrease in a couple of weeks or so. I had restylane a few times on my lips and the beginning they look big but it was just swelling and then my lips were judt fine. Happy healing anf thank you for sharing your experience.

About a week later and my lips are not symmetrical and there are a few bumps. The doctor has told me that my lips "pull water" and will release over the next few weeks. My Cupid's bow is especially off when I smile. Thoughts? Perhaps I'm being too critical. I'm considering having them "fixed" by another doctor.

Your lips look great! I don't even notice the asymmetry. Perfect. Might do mine next week. Did he use one syringe on both lips?

She used one syringe mainly in the upper lip and only a few pokes in the bottom as my bottom lip is naturally considerably larger than the upper.

Which dr and which place in Winnipeg?

Enjoy youth and beauty: I Agree that your lips were 'just perfect' before the procedure. Maybe things will settle in soon and you will be pleased. Once it does, I'm curious how long you were told to expect the newly perfected look to last, and with what frequency one would expect to have to go thru this? ...Cuz,now of course, the obvious question: did it hurt? I am much older than you - 59 - and with age, my top lip has gotten thin... yesterday I had eyeliner tattoo'd (which I love), and the technician suggested Juvederm product for lips, to do this before we tattoo some color in them, or at least a line, so my lipstick doesn't bleed into the wrinkles that rise vertically from my lip...sigh. I may be the customer this product can actually help.

I loooove how they look on the after photo on June 13th. They upper lip looks very even to me, and your smile is so pretty-everything looks very proportioned. I think we do over-analyze ourselves, but I don't see any flaws :-)
