I went to see Dr Lee Thompson after reading many reviews on lip injections. I finally got one done, but not a full lip injection just a MINI. A mini is great because you can add a little each time you go to reach up to the fullness you want without going over board. You have all the control in your hands! No pain, very quick and amazing results. Little swelling but by the morning perfectly fine. I'm definaltey going back for another!
I had a mini lip injection yesterday with Dr Thompson and WOW!!!! They are gorgeous:) I have a renewed feeling of beauty & am beyond pleased. Dr Thompson was wonderfully kind & informative & the best part is not only that the procedure itself was virtually painless, but the INSTANT fullness of my lips!:) HIGHLY HIGHLY recommended! !:) Thankyou Dr Thompson! :) -Jasmine Updated on 26 Sep 2013: My best friend & I went in yesterday for a double mini each with Dr Thompson and are both beyond THRILLED!!! My lips went from thin on the top and uneven all over to a truly perfect pout. This is my 2nd time & my friends 3rd time going and we have never had anything less than AMAZING results!!!:) -Jasmine Updated on 9 Feb 2014: Probably sounds excessive but I have ZERO regrets. I LOVE having soft full lips:) something about just having to pop on a touch of gloss, mascara & feel beautiful is Awesome!:) I highly recommend this for all my ladies out there! Xxoxx Updated on 12 Mar 2014: I have changed Dr's & am now getting Botox & Juvederm from the same Dr. Galina Strovskaia:) She is located close to me, her technique is the best I have had and her prices are HANDS DOWN the Best!!!!! I haven't had my lips done in awhile but for the 1st time, had Botox on my forehead & around my eyes. From extreme weightloss, I also had "jowles" in the creases from my nose to corners of my mouth. She filled those with Juvederm & in total, it cost me $295 for all of this, taxes in & I LITERALLY look 5-8 years younger than I did! Pics coming soon!!! Thrilled!!!!!!:) xo
I'm 26 turning 27 this year and don't have any lines. The reason I got botox is because I frown too much -- I do it subconsciously all the time! So I went to the doc, he analyzed my frowning and because I "have such thick muscles", recommended 30 units. He did two shots in the Glabeller lines on each side, then three shots (on each side) right above the eyebrow. This was done on Thursday, today is Tues. I feel tighter everywhere (harder to raise my eyebrows in the front) BUT I can still frown! Albeit, not as much as before, but i still catch myself subconsciously frowning/being able to frown. What to do?? Updated on 19 Jun 2010: Three months after getting 30 units with Dr. T (Vancouver) it was time for another dose of botox. I found a FABULOUS doctor (Dr. Khorsandian) who specializes in botox at Impact Dental Centre (Surrey). She comes from the 'less is more' school of thought and knows exactly what's needed, where and how much. For my glabellar lines she said 30 units were a little too many and instead used 17 on me. Lo and behold, she was right. She's so good, I even brought my mom to her for my mom's first time with botox. She treated my mom's major frown lines, forehead lines AND gave her a lift in the outer corner of her eyes. My mom said she felt no pain whatsoever! This doctor is amazing and I highly recommend her!
Traumatizing experience! Waste of money, no compassion or follow up. Still have post nodules in my lips that the doctor didn't bother has yet to massage them out for me. I have gotten an allergic reaction! My lips have been itchy, swollen and burning for the last week. I called to update my health concerns and inform the doctor of a possible old batch he may have and to get some clarity on there part to help me. The receptionist was short, with no remorse, said there has never been an allergic reaction and did not rebook an appointment to evaluate me. Since I walked into the clinic I was not seen as a patient just a customer. There is little to no compassion or thorough education for his work.
I had the Mini lip injection it had "NO EFFECT"!! It completely Disappeared after the second day so I called Dr Lee Thompson office and i was told "there is nothing they can do" unless i pay more money for more injection!! It was the greatest rip-off i have encountered ... In addition they advertise $149 but when you get there they tell you it is $300 because each Lip is $149 and it would be 149 if you only want one of your lips done "up or down"!!?! That is such false advertising ... DO-NOT-GO-THERE!!
Mini lip injection. A service with juviderm injected into the lip for subtle enhancement. There was no change and I was told after the procedure that I will have to spend more money on another to see any change in appearance, defeats the purpose of a mini lip injection. Doctor needs to explain better
Instead of having the full amount of a normal lip injection, I had the "mini lip injection" where the vile is separated into 4 viles, I had two, 1 for the upper and 1 for the bottom lip (So basically I had half of the normal amount injected into my lips) The pain was very minimal because of the numbing cream. Right after the Teosyal was injected I could notice a very big difference. The second day my lips did have a few bruising and was still plump but not as big as the first day. 4 days later the swelling had gone down but I still had quite a few bruises, the size of my lips had decreased a big amount. A week later, my lips do not look plump at all, and now I have 2 bumps on my top lip and 3 bumps on my bottom, I am very unhappy with the results. I will wait another week and see if the bumps go away, if not I will contact my doctor, will update
