Swelling is common after lip injections and will decrease over 1-2 weeks. If it does not improve over this time you may have the filler dissolved. There is a good chance you will love your lips again after the swelling resolves. In good health,
Lips are delicate areas that tend to swell after injections. Overall, expect 1-2 weeks of swelling and the possibility of bruising after any injection. Having said that, there are ways to minimize swelling including, not overfilling, icing, and using cannulas for injections vs. sharp needles. In my experience, 3 hours is enough time between injections and enjoying a nice dinner with friends. In good health, Dr. Keel
These steaks are the result of not enough overlap on the IPL pulses. I recommend returning for another treatment as these areas will respond well to blending. In good health, Dr. Keel
These look like very shallow small veins. There are a number of lasers which can remove these including pulsed dye lasers (Vbeam) or long pulse Nd-Yag lasers. I recommend you see a specialist familiar with laser vein removal for treatment. In good health, Dr. Keel
The truth is, there are many devices that are good for tightening and rejuvenating the skin. You have done one of the most important things by going to see an experienced cosmetic surgeon or dermatologist who can evaluate your skin and offer recommendations. Make sure you see plenty of before and after photos of actual patients treated by your physician with the device you are considering. Based on your concerns, I think the Active FX and Deep FX will offer exceptional benefits. In good health, Dr. Keel
