Juverderm in my lips doesn't last longer than 2 weeks! ... I have a small mouth and lips but have tried juverderm 4 times (half syringe the first time then 2 weeks later it's gone so get the other half put in and then same thing it literally disappears) I don't get bruising and love them for the first few days until the little bit of swelling goes away and I'm left with what I started with.. should I do silikon 1000? I don't want to do a lip implant .. Please help!
Answer: Juvederm Disappears Hi SG. The minimum we typically inject in the lips is 1 syringe (1 CC) for exactly the reason you are stating. Anything less just seems to disappear. What you are seeing is the initial swelling, and it's understandable that you are disappointed when this goes down. We find that when patients first start on lip injections, it usually takes 2-3 visits to get where they want to be, because the lips do not to adjust to the product and stretch slightly.You have several options. You can continue down the road you are on until you get the appearance you like or if you believe another injector or product will do better then maybe it is time to switch.

Answer: Lip filler I would recommend trying a different brand of filler, sometimes your body will break one down faster than another product. Good luck.

Answer: Juvederm There are 2 types of Juvederm - ultra and ultra plus, ultra is thinner and may disappear faster. Also, what you like about your lips is swelling, so for you to maintain the size you want, you may need to put more filler and allow the swelling to settle for the final result. That means your lips may look too big at first. Finally, most patients who get lip filler may see it not last for the first few times they get them, but with repeated treatments they last longer.

Answer: Juvederm in lips Thank you for the question. It seems you absorb the product very rapidly. You could ask your injector to try another filler, like Restylane. Or you could have a consultation for lip implants. I suggest this to many of my patients who have come in for multiple lip injections. The implants are soft, made of silicone, and produce great lasting results. Good luck!

Answer: Juvederm is disappearing too quickly Thank you for sharing your problem. You could try having a thicker product such as Restylane Lyft injected into you lips. This will likely volumize more and last longer. Make sure you have an experienced injector perform the procedure.Good luck,
