I don't normally write reviews, but I just can't understand why this dr doesn't have more positive reviews. Dr. Gorman and his staff are absolutely amazing. They are just genuinely nice people. There is not one person I have met at his office that I didn't love. Dr. Gorman takes so much time during your consultation and makes sure he answers all of your questions, and Margaret, his office manager, is just awesome. She too talked to me like she had all the time in the world. She was so sweet and I really valued her opinion. I found her to be so helpful. She is just a great person. I am extremely happy with my decision to get lip implants with Dr. Gorman. He did a wonderful job and I am completely happy with my results. After my surgery, I went back and got Dysport with the P.A., Lauren. I am new to the Austin area, but I have been getting Dysport for 6 years now and was a little hesitant to try someone new, but Lauren is also amazing. She was thorough and asked me exactly what I wanted. The results are perfect. I couldn't be happier. She is so sweet, caring and gentle. I love her so much. I am so glad with my decision to use this office. Everyone at Dr Gorman's office is so nice. I in no way felt they were just about getting my money. They genuinely just seemed like they wanted me to be happy. Thank you so much Dr Gorman and staff! I have had the best and most positive experience with y'all and I am so glad I found y'all!

So it’s been a year now and I am getting them removed this Thursday. I am extremely self-conscious about my smile. The top implant is too short and was placed to far back which restricts my smile and the bottom implant is too short and too high on one side and the thickest part of the implant is on the other side of my lip making my smile look really weird. I definitely like filler better and do regret getting the implants in my lips. I will update after they are removed so everyone can see what that is like and how I heal.

interesting. You liked them at first and I'm wondering what happened. Did they shift or move after they were healed? When did you notice they were placed incorrectly?
For some reason, my lips were swollen for a long time. I’d say about 7-8 months after I got them done is when I knew they weren’t right (yes, I was swollen for that long).
Thanks for the info. I’m thinking about getting implants but would probably have bed swelling too. I have an overactive immune system. My lips were swollen from filler for more than a month. it wasn’t pretty swelling either lol. I looked like a duck.
I think it still looks good

3 months later and LOVE my new lips!!!!

So it's been 3 months since I got my 4mm Permalip. I absolutely love my lips and am so happy I did this. This is definitely one of the best things I have cosmetically and highly recommend it to anyone. Just as a point of reference, I have had one syringe of Juvederm up to 2 syringes at various times. My first time doing lip injections I got 1 syringe. I would definitely say that the 4mm is closer to 1 syringe (I think a little more). As I stated in my previous post, I have a very small face and I could not go any bigger. My lips also look even bigger when I wear lipstick for some reason (another reason I am so glad I didn't go with the 5 mm. I would look absolutely ridiculous lol). All in all, this was definitely worth the pain and a few days of hiding from the world. I am so glad I don't have to deal with lip injections anymore--not to mention all the money I'm saving! They feel completely natural. My husband cannot feel them at all. The only time I feel them is when I literally go to touch them. If you're debating this procedure, go for it. You will love it!
