WORTH IT$4,850

I've had juvederm in the past but it just didn't last very long so waited a few years until Permalip came on the market and decided I would try it out. My procedure was yesterday morning (the 7th). I had a much thinner top lip than bottom as you can see in the pics so I decided on the 5mm on top and 4mm on the bottom. The length for both was 65mm. I was put on an IV so I went to sleep and woke up and was not in pain at all. Swelling wasn't too bad but clearly you can see the difference from the before pics.

Today, my face has some puffiness to it from eyes down. Nothing terrible though. My lips def feel more swollen today.
Recommend using Colgate to go toothbrush things as you will not be able to fit much in your mouth. These are genius as you can't brush very much the mint flavor is super strong so no funky breath.
No need for too many pain meds but I was prescribed norco for pain and took one when i woke up today for the swelling feel. Anyway, I'm sure I'm leaving out good details but ask me if you can thing of anything. Thanks!

Thanks! However there must be something about that 3rd day after surgery. Everything from below my eyes started swelling. It's gone down some today but yesterday was crazy! It was the most swollen I have been. Also, my top lip is still much more swollen than the bottom. I can open my mouth more though. I can't wait for ALL of the swelling to be gone so I can eat and talk normal and see the results!!

You know what, I tried doing the exercises thAT they mention but I can't feel the implants! Guess they are where they need to be but I keep trying to move my mouth all different ways which I started yesterday. The bottom seems fully moveable but the top still has some swelling and numbness but I can move it around just not as much as the bottom yet. Waiting waiting waiting! Haha

Well that's good you cant feel them...i could imagine what one looks like doing the mouth exercises...I'm sure my boys will be making fun of me during that time...already prepared for the quacking to start when i get home from surgery LOL...i guess it gets better over time with movement and doing the exercises...my PS said not to do any exercise movement for about 3 wks...little nervous thought it was 2 weeks to start...as soon as my stitches are dissolved and healed ...starting... your about a week out right..

I actually took my stitches out yesterday on one side and the other side just now. Healing was fast and they were sticking out like loops on each side. No biggie I called and they said it was ok. As for mouth exercises, you know yourself the more you can do as time goes by. I wouldn't open up more than needed the first 4 days or so since it does need to heal and not mess everything up. Right now my bottom lip is completely normal I make all kinds of goofy moves and faces. The top however is still waiting for some swelling and feeling to come back all the way.all is even and I got lucky with bruising I guess. You will be fine. Can't wait to see my top lip results when I smile big bug. Instead of this full smile but not natural way yet. Yours is getting close!! I bet you are excited!!! I go for ,y 1 week checkup tomorrow and will post whatever he tells me then.

How long did it take you to move your mouth as you did pre op?

Would you say that you now have less tooth show (upper teeth) since the implant? Or did this go away with the swelling?

Hey! So I thought I would do an update... My implants looked great in the beginning and as time has gone by it has been determined that I will need to have them redone completely. The dr I went to placed the tunnel too high on the top and the tunnel on the bottom closed halfway across. I'm so irritated!! Anyway, I will be scheduling a surgery with another dr to have both top and bottom taken out and moved to proper placed to tunnels. Should be doing this early Jan. Be careful when selecting drs!!
