Dermal fillers can change the shape of the face in a natural looking way. You have naturally thin lips so adding a bit of volume here would be a great place to start. There are any number of fillers that work nicely (Volbella, Vollure, Juvéderm). Schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon or cosmetic dermatologist to be examined in person and discuss your best options.
Hi, I have performed many facial shaping procedures using dermal fillers, silastic facial implants (cheek, chin), liposuction and/or facelifts for over 30 years. From the photos, your cheeks are very flat in the front, there is excess fat in the mid and lower face and the lips are thin. These combine to create an elongated, oval shaped face. Following my beauty principles, women look the most feminine, youthful and attractive with heart shaped faces. Heart shaped faces have cheeks that are full and round in the front. Cheek augmentation using cheek implants for a permanent enhancement will create full, round cheeks that will feminize the entire face. Liposuction would be used to decrease the excess fat to further shape the cheeks and face. The excess facial fat (baby fat) is typically gone by the mid to late twenties. If you are a teenager, I would wait until you're in your twenties to do either of these procedures. I have performed many lip augmentation procedures using dermal fillers or lip implants for over 30 years. From the photos, your upper lip is small compared to your lower. Following my beauty principles, the upper lip should be approximately 75 % the size of the lower lip for the lips to appear balanced. The lips can be augmented using a dermal filler or a Permalip implant.Dermal filers and lip implants offer a much more reliable volume for augmentation of the lips than permanent fillers or fat injections which are associated with increased, unwanted, side effects.Hope this helps.
You need to be evaluated in person by your injector. This could be a herpes outbreak which is easy to treat or something more serious. Either way, it isn't something that can be evaluated online.
The honest truth is that there are multiple methods for lip injection and the choice of technique depends on the lip you are injecting. A smart injector will know several methods and choose the one most appropriate for that individual patient, rather than going with a "one size fits all"...
I agree you are having more swelling than average. Lips do tend to swell more than other areas, and in the first 48 hours, a dramatic response like you are having is possible. It will get better, but it may take a couple days. Some things that can help are to ice the area, but you...
