45 year old male - getting a little lip augmentation this coming Friday. Had 1cc Juvaderm a year ago but didn't have real noticeable results ( at least to me). My wife said she could tell a big difference but never once received a comment from anyone else - I guess this is a good thing . So this time around. Im trying Restayln Silk. I can tell from self pics now that they have infact went down a little.
Had Dysport to forehead twice - great results both times.
Been married for 10 years , exercise daily and definitely look much younger then my age, try to eat well and stay active.
So we will see how it goes, of course to be honest im a little worried as like everyone , I want a natural look but with that youthful pucker - think young Brad Pitt

I can very frankly and honestly say that your new lips are very becoming. You new lips have a much softer and less severe look. I think this works very well in your case. But what matters most is your own happiness. Best of luck!

After results

So, The MD talked me out of the Restalyn Silk and instead pushed Juvaderm XC - said he had seen better results and that per his patients feedback, the Restalyn silk was not lasting as long as the Juvaderm was. So wife and I arrived, she received Dysport first while I waited on the numbing cream to work - boy did it work - took a pic with just the numbing cream on before and to be honest its my favorite picture. I received 1ml Juvaderm between top and bottom , he said for guys that he injects deep into the wet /dry border for a more natural look.
Right now , I'm still undecided if I like the results - was actually hoping for a more youthful look, maybe something more different - not in your face different but more "modelish" maybe - if that makes sense, I guess I wanted more of a plump look - but it was hard to tell afterwards as my whole lips was numb - really didn't feel nothing but the initial pinch.
I did bruise some although its mostly all inner lip and you cant tell.
I did also receive 70 units of dysport to forehead - love this stuff - keeps the forehead wrinkles away :)

I also had Dysport placed just above lip line and it did a fabulous job of helping create that youthful lip got rid of little wrinkles about lips and helped lift them also
