In May I got my 1st 1ml of Juvederm in my lips. 2 weeks later I got another 1ml. The photos show my lips after each appointment. After 2mls shouldn't my lips be drastically fuller? Obviously there is a difference, but I feel like it is very subtle (I'm after FULL, pouty lips). I have read that if the injector isn't great, results aren't as dramatic as they should be. Is it worth going to see someone else for my 3rd ml or is my progression standard?

Hello, and thank you for your question! The answer to your question is "yes". Braces, because they occupy space between the lips and the teeth, push the lip out and forward. After you have your braces removed, your lip will be slightly smaller and flatter in appearance than it was...
Good question!I see no contraindication to limit exercise prior to having your lip injected. I do recommend a strong topical for an hour prior and icing the area for about 15 minutes prior to procedure. Good luck
Thank you for your question. It is common to have swelling, lumps and bruising after lip augmentation with Juvederm. This can take up 2 weeks to resolve. You can ice your lips to help reduce any swelling and massage the lumps to help smooth them out. If you are unhappy with your final results...
