Juvederm Volbella - relaxed lips comparison shot, one day post treatment

So ladies... I'm sorry I didn't take a better before shot that focused on my lips at rest before I had this treatment, but here's something of a comparison shot so I hope it sort of conveys the result.

So the lower photo is one day after injecting 1ml of Juvederm Volbella predominantly into the upper lip. You can see the two bruises underneath my lower lip where I had a small amount injected into it as well. As you can see, I did not bother to put any makeup on so this is pretty raw - go easy on me! I realise it's not the most flattering photo on earth. Lips, it turns out, are not easy to photograph well!

Anyhoosies, hope this helps anyone who is interested in fillers.

Bonus Round #2! Filler in lips for vertical lip lines & added volume

Hi gorgeous girls,

Just a quick note in case anyone is interested... I had 1ml of Juvederm Volbella injected into my upper lip (a tiny touch of it was also injected to my lower lip) today and I am soooo thrilled to bits with the results. My separate review of Volbella will be published in the next 24 hours, but in a nutshell:

I had previously tried Botox to eliminate my lip lines with absolutely no success, so I finally decided to dip my toes into the filler pool, so to speak. The first couple of injections were a little painful, but as Volbella has a local anaesthetic in it it is smooth sailing by about injection number four.

For anyone new to the filler game (like me), Volbella is one of Juvederm's softer fillers, so my lips do not feel at all hard, lumpy or weird. It's also designed for conservative results; there is very little chance of ending up with a trout pout with this product.

Oh, haven't yet taken a pic of my lips when not pursed, but they look really nice, just a little fuller. And for me to be saying something on my own body looks good... well... you guys must know me well enough by now to know I find that quite challenging sometimes! I will take a pic when I am not completely exhausted and can be bothered to put a bit of lippy on!

Once again, I am a very happy camper! Any questions at all, please do ask away.

Peace and love angels,

:) xoB.

From the minute I first made phone contact with Dr Callan's rooms, I have been extremely impressed by the entire staffs commitment to making sure my experience is a positive one. During the first consult, Dr Callan (and one of his brilliant nurses, Liz) took me through the whole process, covering everything from explaining his preferred methodology and the risks associated with the procedure, to 3D imaging of what I can expect my breasts to look like and the fun part - trying on sizers! He was professional, informative and immensely helpful. The rooms are lovely and honestly, start to finish it was a pleasure to be there. Since my BA I have received excellent follow up care, Peter came to see how I was doing before I left the hospital, one of his fabulous nurses rang me the following day to see how I was and Peter rang me himself on the Saturday after my surgery which I greatly appreciated. Liz and Peter were both fabulous to see at my post-op appointment and I was reminded that I was totally in the right hands. My results are great so far (in spite of some lingering pain) and at 5 days post-op I feel fully supported by Peter & his staff who all continue to be a total delight to deal with.
