Wow looks fantastic! I had a lip and corner lift two months ago and think that I also have some residual filler that has migrated above my lip and is inhibiting my smile. I had one syringe of Juvederm in April of 2021 and would have thought it would be gone by now. I will check with my PS at my 3 month follow up.
Thank you! My filler was 2 years old but was still there my smile was very tight I though I was still healing but as soon as he dissolved it I got my big smile back it’s worth removing it. Xx
Hi, I'm wondering how much the procedure is?
Very pretty
Did you have to get all of your fillet removed for him to know what’s really going on?
I did not have a lot of fillers in so I did not remove them he dissolved a little bit of left over fillers after the surgery
How long did you have to wait for your first laser?

Before/after

Before and after we did only 4mm in the middle and 5mm on the side he also did a corner lift in one side only. I just removed my stitches on that pic so you can see the scar is already very minimal….

looks really good
Thanks :)
What did you start with? How long?
I honestly don’t know because I had no choice but to only do 5mm since my teeth are very big so it really depends on the person everyone mouth is so different
Your lips look beautiful! Has there been any change to your nose?
There was change to my nose but it’s only been 2 months so I m still swollen. It’s too soon to tell if the change is permanent even if it is I like my nose better like this
Thank you so much. I understand that you are still swollen. Would it be ok if I check with you in a few months? Dr. Talei is the only doctor doing this procedure I have seen whose patients’ noses/nostrils do not widen and whose scars look invisible. Both factors are important to me. How has your nose changed, and thank you again for your reply?
My scar is invisible only I can see it because I know it’s there but people don’t I would not say my nostrils lol re bigger but my nose seems to be more up which I like but again I still feel very tight from the swelling under my nose so it’s not the final result you can check back with me in a few months
Thank you so much. That is very helpful. Wishing success with continued healing.
Looks gorgeous! Would it be ok if I send you a dm? Thanks :)
How much did it cost? Lips look great!
Thank you mine was $10 000

Amazing Surgeon

I m one day post lip lift surgery and I could not say enough about Dr Talei, I was very scared of the pain since I had another surgery few months before with another doctor and the pain was very bad, all the staff did their best to reassure me from the receptionists to the nurse then Dr Talei started to numb my lips which was suppose to be the most painful part but his hands and so gentle I did not feel a thing, for the surgery same I barely felt any pressure and the stitches he did are so tiny they are almost invisible. The pain day one is already minimal I m swollen as expected no bruise . I will keep posting how my recovery goes but so far I m glad I trusted Dr Talei for a surgery that is so delicate.

Wow......that's vey high priced for this procedure
I did not want to take any risk first with scar second I wanted to remove more Dr talei said no if another doctor would of said yes it would of look very bad it’s in the middle of the face so personally to me it was worth paying the price
