53 Just Had Permalip Implant - New Troy, MI

I admit it. I could easily be a plastic surgery addict. I had my nose done 20 years ago. I had breast implants when I turned 40, and last year I finally got my tummy tuck after 4 kids who were all huge babies. I've always wanted plump lips. My lips are decent size but they are rather flat. I got juvederm in September and loved it. I could just apply gloss instead of doing the whole lip liner faking it out thing. I knew this was something I wanted to last so I did the research and decided to go for the permanent option. I came into some extra money so I took the plunge. The dental block was horrific, hurt like hell! I couldn't feel anything but tugging but now, a few hours later it hurts. I took a percocet, it still hurts though! I will check back in tomorrow. I'm pretty bruised but the swelling isn't too bad.

Day after, much more swollen today. I've been eating those squeeze pouch fruit and veggie things. Still painful but not as bad as last night. Didn't go out today, wouldn't have been able too! Look pretty bad.

Just took this one, 27 hours post - op.
