I'd wanted substantially larger lips and prominent cheekbones for a long time. And I'm so glad to have finally gotten them! I'd previously worked at Dr. Daniel Yip's office in Coquitlam, where I imagined I'd finally receive my first fillers - but due to his generally unwelcoming nature and sexism, I never took advantage.
Eventually, after so much research and that whole gotta-call-every-clinic-because-the-sites-don't-post-prices thing we all have to do, I decided to check out Cur Laser on Main street because it's just so close to home and the business hours make the office accessible after work and on weekends. Score!
Setting up the appointment was easy, even despite Dr. Kumar Shivdasani being out of town for the surrounding weeks. The staff and doctor himself are all very accommodating.
Dr. Kumar Shivdasani sat through my long-winded explanation of precisely what I was and was not wanting (I'm preeetty picky!) and in the end, he got it spot on. I couldn't believe how intuitive he was.
I was looking for big, drastic, "who's that lady" results; he's a conservative injector. For a while I feared I'd leave the office unhappy with how little product he put in my face, but he injected bit by bit to eventually build up my dream lips and cheekbones and I'm so happy with the results.
The numbing cream he used was instantly, and very, effective. I literally didn't feel any needles at any point.
I took up a bit too much of his time with my rambling and requests, but he was very humble and accomodating the whole way through- even with his next clients waiting. I feared bruising, but actually didn't bruise at ALL. Even if I were to have, he apparently has a laser that zaps the temporary darkness away.
I'm so pleased with the product placement, shape, technique, and results.
He used I think 1 vial of juvederm in my lips, and 3/4 vial in each cheek (voluma I believe) or something like that. He told me the pricing breakdown through out so I wouldn't be shocked in the end.
Didn't nab the before photos from Dr. Kumar but will upload some after pics shortly!

Hello, and I am glad for you that the results turned out great! I'm currently trying to find a new doctor to do Juvederm lip injections, and I would appreciate any updated info/photos you are willing to share about your lip results from Dr. Shivdasani. I'm also curious, which particular product did you have in your lips? Blessings...

Yes, yes, please post your photos! Love to see your results!
Glad to hear you're pleased with your new look. Did your previous work experience in Dr. Yip's office help you speak more knowledgeably about the procedure? Perhaps you weren't babbling at all but providing the doctor that performed the procedure with exactly the information and detail he needed!
