Removed the lower implant.

WORTH IT$1,500
The lower implant healed off to the side and bothered me too much. The upper one you do not feel but the lower one was always there. The doctor offered to redo it with the new technique but I refused. My friend who got the same size ended up having hers put back in and she loves it! The way he does it now is he cuts the lower lip in the center and measures the tunnel for the implant to each side so it fits perfectly.
I ended up getting Restylane Defyne and I LOVE it! See my other review.
Again, I still do think that the 5mm permalip isn’t totally worth it! Perhaps I should’ve had my lower implant put back in. I don’t know.
It all worked out in the end :)

Had mine removed years ago. I'll never do implants again. Big mistake. Glad they are out.

I kept the upper one. It made a good underlayment for the HA filler

Had both upper and lower removed. Never again would I ever consider lip implants. Use pdo mono threads and hyaluronic acid filler.

How long do the threads last?
Right now I am getting second syringe of Restylane Define. Should last a year, I hope. Ha

Here is what it looks like. I am about to upload a video for y’all so yinz see it in motion. Upper isn’t excellent. I might get a subnasal lip lift tho. The lower is most likely coming out. I wish I had known about Silikon 1000!!

You're so adorbs it's ridiculous! Anyway, looks natural and fuller, what's this silikon 1000 you speak of?
September 2, 2020
Don't ever get silicone. I see many patients, on a weekly basis, that have had silicone. It migrates and sometimes becomes infected.

You’re thinking about Silikon 1000 which is free floating silicone injectable. These were solid implants. See the photo.

Those can be disastrous as well.

As i mentioned earlier I'm in Dolly Deadly 2, which is the next Troma movie, playing an ex showgurl who turns into rollerskating gang leader and she's out for her revange. It will be great, it's a punk rock horror comedy. Now check out those lips with the liner on.

You look amazing! No one looking at you would ever notice the asymmetry you spoke of and it's not evident in any of your photos that I can tell. One question - do you feel like there is an overall desensitizing effect? For example less sensation when kissing? Thank you.

Thank you! No, none. All the sensitivity restores within couple weeks. No guys notice the implants when we're kissing. Even my dentist didn't notice that it's in there.
