I went to an experienced, board-certified plastic surgeon last week for BOTOX and I forgot to mark down the PermaLip implants on my info sheet. During the consult before the injections he spent a good deal of time talking with me, and was totally surprised I had PermaLip in my upper and lower lips. He does them and said he honestly had no idea until I told him. I felt great because all I wanted to do was rejuvenate my aging lips, not noticeably augment them. I've been happy with my PermaLips since day-one. Still happy!

Good luck! Remember to be patient the first few weeks after you get them. Swelling has to go down and then do the exercises once your plastic surgeon OK's them.

Can you post an updated photo? I'm thinking about doing that but I'm a bit gunshy after talking to several doctors!

A little over 3 years ago I took the plunge and went for permanent lip implants (Perma Facial Implant). I'm still in love with my new lips and have had no trouble with the implants. One of the best decisions I've made! One-time surgery, no ongoing expense with fillers, and they look fantastic. What else could you ask for?

Anuta - I'm sure it's possible. I only wanted my upper lip done because I didn't think my lower lip needed it. My biggest concern were the lines around my upper lip. It wasn't thin, just wrinkled. My surgeon strongly urged me to do both lips. I just went with his recommendation.

Just noticed your comment. Thank you. I am getting my upper implant June 13. So excited! Now the only concern is the size. I chose 4 mm but after all the pics and reviews I am afraid it won't be a noticeable difference.

Thank you for your updates! I really appreciate your taking the time to let us know that you're still happy with your implants. You look great!

Would you mind posting another recent pic of your lips? I love how they look in your last photo, but that was taken only 2 weeks after your surgery……my guess is that some of the residual swelling between then and now may have disappeared and I'd love to see the 'permanent' results as they look today…..I'm seriously considering getting this done soon and am impressed with your results. Thanks!

It has been over two years since I had implants (Perma Facial Implant) placed in my upper and lower lips. I still love them and wouldn't change a thing. My lips look so natural no one knows I have them. When I tell people they are surprised. I can't imagine getting shots of dermal filler in my lips every few months. For me, Perma Facial Implants have been a great solution for maintaining youthful-looking lips.

Glad to hear this. How are they now? It does take time to heal - at least for me.
