I went to a doctor to get a full syringe of juvederm. it seems as if the juvederm didnt work for my bottom lip. i actually bought the full syringe as a groupon so i got half off....the numbing agent was in the syringe which i thought was odd considering most people dont want to feel the needle go in... when i called the doctor to ask if it doesnt take sometimes she said "we use the same products as everyone else" that didnt answer my question, i thought it was a bit shady.. thoughts?

Answer: Juvederm Juvederm is injected as a product it is not like say Botox where you are waiting for an effect on the muscles. It works period as a filler. As for volume perhaps you need more?

Answer: Does Juvederm ever not take When injected properly, Juvederm takes every time. From your before and afters I can see a change, and obviously immediately affect you do have swelling, which went down. One syringe of Juvederm is not enough for a huge change in the lips, but you do have what I would call an average, subtle amount of change from the Juvederm. If you wanted more volume, you needed more filler put in (or a different filler - personally I like Restylane more in the lips). As a side note, Juvederm now does contain lidocaine in the syringes so some people choose not to pre-block with a separate lidocaine block. Personally I still do for the exact reason you mention, but some people don't. And one more side note, Groupons are never a good option for any type of filler - people who are willing to make great deals are usually not people you want to see for injections or they wouldn't be offering their services for intensely discounted rates. Shop for experience, not cost, if you want the best outcome. "This answer has been solicited without seeing this patient and
