A Self Injector Here...
When I first decided to get Restylane injected...
When I first decided to get Restylane injected into my top lips, I was so excited, I always wanted bigger, sexy lips! A plastic surgeon did it, it cost $600. She used the entire 1 ml syringe. After a week I noticed that one side of my lip was looking less and less full. I went back to her numerous times to correct it. She used a lesser filler to correct it called Prevelle. It only lasted for a month at a time.
Finally when that was depleted, instead of buying another $600. syringe from her, I found someone online who sold fillers to doctors offices. You need a doctors RX to order this stuff online. Most doctors want the revenue for themselves. Anyway I bought it for $200. - a whole 1 ml. So I had seen the doctor injecting me many times.
SO I got the courage up... and did it to myself... without any anesthesia! I was already too addicted to full lips not to try. It hurt a little bit, but they say beauty is pain right? So, I've been doing it to myself for almost a year now, and I notice that I need to reinject every few months. I guess my body absorbs it quickly.
I dont recommend anyone do this... I had enough experience to know how to do it. I have not had any ill effects.

Linda, you can buy from {edited}...very inexspensive from Brazil where they are on the cutting edge of these technologies. Juveni is identical to Juvederm, or Restylane. Just don`t buy the PMMA..it is very viscous, to difficult to inject, and if you mess up your stuck with it for 8 or more years it`s considered permanent.The other Juveni products last about 8 mo. to a year.

It's important to note that buying Restylane online and injecting it yourself is very dangerous. It's also illegal because Restylane is a prescription product. Not even the original poster recommends self-injecting.
