1st Time Lip Injection W/Juvederm Volbella: Perfect Results! - New York, NY

I like my lip shape but have wanted them to be a tad fuller although they are not thin. So when I heard of the new Volbella type of Juvederm I wanted to try it. So happy I did! They didn't bruise. It hardly hurt (felt like a pinch.) The result is natural, subtle and no bad swelling even hours later.

After doing 1 syringe of Volbella, I decided I wanted my lower lip to be even a tad plumper. Went back to Dr. Westreich who really spent time consulting me on what the best approach would be based on look I want and price. He showed me before and afters of myself. Showed exactly where he would inject and why. He's so great and really thinks the process through to achieve exactly what you want! We decided that a 1/2 syringe of Juvederm Ultra XC at $450 would be a better way to go for the subtle additional augmention I was going for instead of doing another full Volbella at $750. So he Injected a bit to my bottom lip center and also top to define the Cupid's bow. Again, pretty painless. Did 30 mins of numbing cream and I took some Arnicare before my session. Super happy with the results. I went straight to work after. No swelling. No bruising.

The top photo is my natural lips. The middle is Volbella. This photo was taken a couple hours after I got my first injections ever. It was just one syringe. The bottom is taken 12 hours after getting almost half a syringe of Ultra XC. (Which I got a week after my Volbella.)
