CLAIM YOUR PROFILEI’ve always felt my face was a little uneven due to a smaller lower lip. 4 days ago I went into San Juan Plastic Surgery and I got the lower Implant placed. It only took about 45 minutes and the absolute worst part for me was the numbing process. The first day went by fast. I mostly slept. The 2nd and 3rd day however were very painful. I could barley talk and eat. I kept my ibeprofin very close. Also, I was extremely bruised. It looked like I was wearing purple lipstick. I think I have always bruised a little easy though. Most of the swelling was down by day 4 and I was starting to get minimal movement back to my mouth. Even though it’s hard to see the final product through the bruising, I Love the way I look! The only instructions I was givin was to pinch the edges of my lip to make sure the implant stays centered.
