Hi! I have really small lips (upper and lower) and want full looking lips. After watching many videos and seeing pictures all around of lip injections, i doubt one syringe will hardly do anything for me. Would getting 2syringes be too much all at once and is there any danger that comes with getting 2? Also, would you guys recommend dental blocks or numbing cream? Thank you!

Answer: Ive never had lip fillers done, is getting 2 syringes my first time too much? Thank you for sharing your excellent question. In order to limit the soft tissue swelling to which the lips are prone to, I would recommend injecting only a single syringe on your first treatment session - 0.5 to each lip based on your desired results. This not only primes your lips for additional treatment in the future, but limits the secondary effects of treatment - bruising, lumps, asymmetry, and swelling. If your lips are small, best to augment them gradually over time. I prefer numbing cream to limit patient discomfort. Hope this helps.

Answer: I recommend starting out with 1 syringe. Thank you for your question. I recommend starting out with 1 syringe. the lips have a habit to swell. The more product injected, the greater the likelihood of swelling. You can always add more filler after 2 weeks when the swelling resolves. Best of Luck!
