Is there a way to get thinner lips naturally?

reyes009Jun 7, 2012
is there anyway to get thinner lips naturally? I am a guy so make up is out of the question. I've heard of putting caffeine cream on lips which would reduce puffiness and a product called Demirex which many say is a scam lip balm that does nothing ingredients are octinoxate, octisalate, oxibenzone, soybean oil, beeswax, shea butter, cocoa butter, vitamin e, sunflower oil, aloe vera, FD&C colors & flavor. Please anything would help tremendously.

Hi there! Thanks for your query. I wouldn’t typically expect there to still be lumps present 5 weeks after treatment. I would suggest booking a follow up appointment with your practitioner to discuss the possibility of correction or having the product dissolved. Hope this helps! Dr Rupert

Swelling in the lips can be inflammatory in nature and can sometimes occur with silicone or Bioalcamid injections.  Ask your clinician to detail the type of filler injected.  If it is silicone, there are options for removal of part of the silicone.
