I had 1 cc of Juvederm at the beginning of July and I was happy with the results. 3 days later it looked like nothing was there. Then 2 weeks later, I had another cc injected into upper & lower lips again. The first 2 days after injection were perfect! Then two days later they deflated significantly. 3 months have gone by I am going back for more. My question is, should I get one or two more syringes in the upper and lower lips? I want the look of when they are swollen to be the final result.

Answer: Proceed with Caution Hi... even though you want the "swollen" result to be your actual long term result I would encourage and counsel you to go slowly and progressively to obtain the long term look you want. There is no magic number of syringes it may take but placing them one at a time to build up to the look you want is likely to be the best and most appropriate way to get you you to where you would like to be. Hope this helps.J. Wethe, M.D.

Answer: Juvederm for lips If you were injected with Juvederm Ultra last time, perhaps you need Juvederm Ultra Plus this time. Juverderm Ultra plus is thicker and typically lasts longer than Juvederm Ultra. Depending on the size of your natural lip and the desired size you could need anywhere from 1 syringe to 3 syringes, however I would not inject more than 2 syringes at a time. Lip augmentation is an art and the results are dependent as much on the injectors technique as they are on the amount injected.
