I had 1/2 syringe of Juvaderm Volift injected into both my upper and lower lips.It was so excruciatingly painful & after 3 days of severe swelling,they both went down.After 2 weeks ,I am so disappointed at the lack of difference from before the procedure!!I was wondering if the severe pain as well as the fact that the Juvederm seems to have been rapidly absorbed by my body be due to poor technique as well as injecting to deep.......
Answer: Lip Injections and Pain Next time you have injections get them by an expert injector who uses cannulas as they cause less bruising, pain, and swelling. As well, I love Restylane silk in the lip and suggest you try that next time. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Why did my injection hurt so bad? Thank you for your question. Sorry to hear about your experience. Slight discomfort during an injection and swelling after an injection are common side effects. It is difficult to assess why your injection was so excruciating. Perhaps schedule a consultation with an expert injector to be assessed.You may require more product to achieve the desired look. Best,

Answer: It's a combination of factors The lack of volume is probably due to too little filler being used. It also depends on the type of Juvederm used. Some products in the line give you more volume while others are designed to give a softer and more subtle appearance.The pain is unusual so long after injection. You may have had an unlucky puncture which caused bruising and pain. You should consider going to a plastic surgeon's office and having a professional evaluation to see what you can do next. If you want more volume, you would need closer to a full syringe. It all depends on your physiology and the end result you want to achieve.

Answer: Vollure The administration of fillers is a highly technical procedure. There are so many factors to consider. Nevertheless, bruising, swelling, and tenderness are normal post-op. But excruciating pain is not. You will have to discuss this with your care provider. Please contact a qualified provider or a board-certified physician with extensive experience in these procedures.

Answer: Painful lip injection-volift Hello and thank you for your question. Sorry to hear about your painful experience. There are different reasons why your filler may have not lasted. It could be the type of filler, injection technique and how quick you metabolize the filler. It is not uncommon to have to add additional syringes to reach your desired results when first getting lip enhancement. Very difficult to say why your treatment was so painful. Swelling is common lasting 3-7 days. Be sure to go to an experienced, board certified cosmetic provider for best results.
