Looks stunning. I'm getting a lip lift with dr Mascaro. Can I ask how you are finding things like eating, drinking, brushing your teeth etc? X

Well, this has been a bit more than month and a half now, I still have a feeling of a pull under my nose, I tend to get acne so the scar area is also a little bit acting out, but as far as eating, drinking this was all behind me after less than four or five days post op, They say only fluids, but if you’re really careful and you take your time, like eating really slow , very small bites and cutting your food to Lil pieces .. then you should be fine, I did not drink with straws and I still don’t, I also try not to smile too big because the skin is still a little bit sensitive, however this was one of the major reasons i did it - my lips would cover my teeth, so now they are shown and I am so excited about that .:. So it’s hard not to smile because I want to show the whole world my teeth LOL

Thank you for getting back to me. Really helpful. The hardest thing for me will be stopping myself from laughing

I've been scared to try this because of one exaggerated results but this is the best one I've seen so far! Did your nostrils flair? Can you get this if you've ever had a nose job?

25 days post

25 day after surgery and still Loving it

I don’t know why I thought it’s been a month and a half, now I looked at the calendar it’s only 25 days, but that should let you know how great it feels that I feel it’s been so long...

so I have started to update with pictures on my Instagram but after a week I just got back to my normal life and forgot all about it, I will go back into it the more I see your comments the more I know that people want that information and details and I am happy to provide it as I was the one to read what everybody else was writing and he definitely help me make the right decision .

I think us women need to support each other and there’s one thing I know that the fact that you can get something to make your look better, will not take away anything from you if someone else can get it too.

Actually, it’s better because that results in better outcomes for all of us ( knowing what to expect and also the more people do with them or we can compare procedures and know what we want )

I will try to update on my Instagram with more pictures .

But for now I’ll just add a few here and I will let you know it is great, I am happy I did it, and if you have thoughts about this then just consider this needs to be something you really want because it does change the look of your face.

If you ask me? I change my face significantly for the better, I think the main result which is hardly talked about over here, as the youthfulness look it gives you, that’s why I also refrained from doing the sides, I like that look.

There’s a lot of people who wrote about problems of talking, not on Dr. mascaras procedures but I read about a generally speaking, I had zero issues with that.

You should be ready for a little bit of puffiness in your face, which personally I loved because it’s very cute, and my lips are still kind of swollen every morning but it goes away in the afternoon. It’s not weird but nobody mentioned it so I thought I should .

Feel free to ask me anything

Sorry for the typos.. it was voice to text writing and now when I reread it ... I'm somewhat embarrassed but since RealSelf don't let you edit your own posts (or at least I don't know how...) then I guess I will just try to correct what is not understood

so:
Actually, it’s even better because results get better outcomes for all of us ( knowing what to expect and also, the more people review them the more we can compare procedures and know what we want to achieve and who can possibly get the best results for us.

another correction -
But for now I’ll just add a few pics here and will let you know it is really great, I am happy I did it, and if you have thoughts about this then just consider this needs to be 100% something you really want ! simply because it does change the look of your face.

If you ask me? It has change my look significantly for the better, I think the main result which is hardly talked about over here for some reason (I have no idea why not...) , is the youthfulness appearance it gives you, that’s why I also refrained from doing the sides, I just like that look.

You look beautiful! I had a LL by him a few years ago and was hoping you could remind me of which scar gel he gives us. I’m having a procedure and remember how well it works

31 Days, Mascaro' did GREAT JOB!!! & about the scar

User Avatar
Pemil
I can see small changes, it's been 31 days after. I'm very happy about it.
Here are a few things I thought you should know:
1. You need to be responsible. First few days keep it to min. like EVERYTHING. I did not even watch anything on TV that can make me laugh. I only watched news channels cause there is zero chance of laughing at their depressing content. I ate only soft food with FORK (super important!)
2. You have two sets of stiches. First set will be removed after 5 days, the second are dissolvable, I still have (apparently... one inner stich that is acting out and looks like a pimple that is about to pop, but it doesn't LOL...)
3. I had zero problem talking, got no idea what some women were posting about but then again, like my BF said when I comment about not having any issues talking: "babe, you never do..." :)
4. I did not take even one pill for pain. Girls, I swear I had bigger headaches.
5. The scar, that's what everyone is worried about. two things,
One. it is very thin. Estee Lauder Double Wear makeup covers it like it has never been there...
Two - if you don't like the way your lip looks like who cares about a hair line scar?
seriously?! one of the girls in the nails place asked me about it, I said I had a small procedure done because I wanted to even out my nostrils .
(I know you're smiling now...) she said "oh, nice. ..." and that was that.
6. One girl wrote to me that I should not say I paid $3800 because she paid $2800 and that's simply not possible. well, it is. and as much as I would love to pay less, that's what I was quoted. and you know what else?. I'm sure next year it would cost more. You pay for talent and experience. Mascaro' got them both.
7. Does it change your face? (I know I've comment about it, maybe here, maybe on my IG,)
I personally think it does. my face were defiantly feminized by it, not to mention the youthful look it enhances overall.
that's it for now...I hope it helps :)

Please help, can I send you pictures of my lip lift scar and you tell me of yours EVER looked like this? My doctor says all normal, but there is no way it is normal. I think I need a revision. I have sent a message to Dr. Mascaro too.
User Avatar
April 13, 2021
sure you can :) I'm not an expert but I promise to tell you the truth
send it to my IG, I don't check messages here every day.
April 15, 2021
How's your scar going? I hope it's all fine!
April 9, 2021
Did Dr. Mascaro suggest the side lift? I have it added on my plan also and will decide if I need to get it done when I see him in person.
April 16, 2021
Hi! I am scheduled for a lip lift next week. When were you able to smile or laugh normally? Or does it still feel tight and awkward to make big facial expressions with your mouth? I'm a singer so I'm wondering how long I should take off.
April 22, 2021
My consultation was 4/21/2021 & I was quoted $4300, so it's already gone up since this post. I'm not having anything extra done....just liplift
June 13, 2021
Did it take everyone a long time just to get a consult? I emailed his office and he is booking for consults for May of next year.
June 14, 2021
I was originally booked 6 months out for a consult but I asked to be put on a cancellation list and it was only 3 months
