I had a very bad experience with the dental block. The PA injected my upper lip with lidocaine in several places and it hurt like heck. Then she injected the Juvederm. After completing the top lip she started injected for my lower lip by the time she got to third injection I started to pass out. I layed back until it passed and told her not to finish the dental block because it didn't even help in the top lip. She the finished the bottom. I will never have her do a dental block again. I was pleased with how my lips turned out.
Acutually the dental block I got did not even numb my lips at all. I was given several shots inside my upper and lower lip. After getting one of the shots I nearly passed out. When getting the procedure done It was very painful but not nearly as painful as the shots for the dental block
I had my first facelift at about age 43. It lasted for about 10 years then did it again. I am 67 now and am glad I did it. No one ever guesses how old I am. I had a laser procedure done last Christmas and it looks great. I now have had the botox and Juvederm for my lips and am very happy. You just have to keep up with it.
