I've always had very small lips so after reading the reviews about this product I became very keen to try. I decided to get this procedure done at the SK:N clinic in Norwich, UK! However they have clinical throughout the country! I was extremely nervous on arrival for my consultation as I had been told when booking it that if I wanted to go ahead they would carry it out there and then. Also reading the horror stories of horrendous pain experienced by other people online this had set the fear of God into me! After talking to an extremely knowledgeable practice nurse I decided to go ahead! The nurse was professional and made me feel completely at ease! Ive read online that other people were in lots of pain despite have a topical numbing cream applied! I don't know who these people are or where they went but alll I can assume is that they went somewhere cheap and had an unskilled practitioner! The nurse I saw explained that she wouldn't be using any sort of numbing solutions because juvederm has a local anaesthetic actually inside the product so after a few injections the lips would numb themselves! So I braced Myself and thought happy thoughts and she began! I can honestly say I do not get what the fuss was about! It was less painful than me pinching my hand! You feel the needle prick but it's less painful that when they pick your arm for an injection because the needle for the lips is so tiny! I felt the product go in! It felt like a pressure but no sting and as she went on the lips did numb n i could hardly feel a thing! I reckon i was pricked about 12 times! She used one whole viAl as my lips were very small and said this or less is okay for most people! Over the next week my lip had a little bruise on but went down very quick! I ate a nandos just after I'd had it done so as u can tell it didn't affect my eating other than I was cautious and had chips instead of corn so that I could place the food inside my mouth rather than biting into something! I was happy with the result at first but then I felt they still were not big enough! So I went back yesterday and she repeated the procedure free of charge! Which was great as many places charge for a second vial! This time she said she used only half a vial! Overall I'm very happy! I'll upload and before and after once the swelling is down! Tbh next time I may get more product because I like that fake pouty look! I'm also interested to see how long it lasts!

2ml syringe I mean! As I wanted big!

2ml cost around 360 I'd say on average it last about 6-9 months however they said second time it could last longer xx more like 12

I was very excited to learn more about Juvederm and the amazing results that you can get after the procedure. I will be getting gel fills in lip lines and lip fillers. I always wanted to have full and amazing looking lips. I was very happy to read your story that you are pleased with the result. Need little encouragement!
