I'm seriously considering getting lip fillers. I have really high anxiety and hate needles.

It is normal to have anxiety about a procedure that involves needles.  It's even more scary when you don't know what to expect or are in the hands of someone you don't trust.  My recommendation is to read all you can about it and go to your injector to ask them all of your questions and have them explain exactly what will be done.  Make sure you go to someone you like, and you trust.  Someone who makes you feel comfortable.  Another good idea is to request that your lips be done lying down.  Since the lip shape is not gravity dependent, your body position should not alter the results.  There are many anesthetic options you can use so that you don't feel any of it is you choose not to.  Also, if you know your injector well, they may be willing to prescribe a relaxing agent prior to your visit.You will be fine, and you will do great!  Good luck!

Thanks for your question. This is a question that we
get asked often by our patients.

In my professional experience, it is possible to
consistently gain better symmetry and overall shape of lips with injection of
hyaluronic acid lip fillers as it allows you to completely reverse the results
if you do not like them.  While these are temporary (lasting about 6
months) they are quick, simple and have minimal pain or down time. For the best
results please consult a board certified dermatologist with experience with
dermal filler and hyaluronic acid cosmetic injections.
