Thank you Dr. Sinclair.
I have contacted the Dr's office via email where I had the procedure and I am still waiting on a response. I have sent another email with photos of how my lips look. I didn't have any bruising and as far as I can see there is no more swelling. What is the likliness of the Dr's office refunding my money?
I have made an appointment to see a different Dr who is an MD not a plastic surgeon for Friday who seems to show much empathy and concern for my concern. I don't want the RN/Esthetician that injected them to do it again as I don't trust her. This is causing me so much distress and I can't even leave the house. I really don't want any of the gel removed I would rather just have Restylane injected to even them out. Can Restylane be injected when you already have Juvederm?
Also, I was wondering if you have a procedure and the whole amount of the gel is not used can the Dr use it for again at another appointment or when you are due for another injection? I know that I would only need .25ml or .5ml or Restylane.
Thank you so much for your assistance.

I was injected with 1cc Juvederm on Sunday 4-27-08 and I am not happy at all. The RN that injected it told me that she could correct my uneven upper lip which she didn't she just made it worse. I had Restylane about 6 months ago and decided to try Juvederm I personally don't see a difference other than the skills of the person injecting the filler. Can this be corrected by using an enzyme in the area that has too much or can I have .25cc of Restylane injected into the area that doesn't have enough as I don't want to pay for 1cc of filler when I won't use that much?
Please help!

I first had Restylane which was okay and I heard so much rave about Juvederm that I decided to go ahead and try that 6 months later. I went to an OB/GYN office where I had a consultation with a Registered Nurse/Esthetician by the name of Sondra. She said she could do it the following day so I went ahead. One side of my lip was slightly lower than the other and she said she could correct it and I also wanted some fullness. I trusted her to correct my lip which she didn't and now my lip looks worse as it is more noticeable since they are fuller now. One side is curved the otherside is straight. When I had my initial consultationSondra was really weird and she was picking out all my imperfections...what kind of medical professional does that!!! She was completely rude to me and had no interpersonal skills at all but I gave her the benefit of the doubt and I wanted my lips corrected asap. When I went in the following day she was nicer with me but still a bit odd. So now I am trying to find a doctor in Northern Virginia that I can trust to correct this. I don't want all of it removed just evened up. I emailed the dr of the practice about my disappointment and anger over the procedure performed. I am not sure if I should go to a plastic surgeon or an md to have it corrected but as of right now I don't want to leave the house and I don't want to take pictures and I don't want to spend too much more money getting it fixed.
Anybody have any suggestions.
Cheers!
