Well I am anxiously awaiting my lip implant procedure. I have been doing injections for 3 years and I am tired of going back and honestly they seem to look different every time I get them done. So researched and found out my PS is one of the inventors of Permalip so I figured who better to have "install" them. Lol
Anyway, my date is April 28 and I am so excited. I have been having my Juvederm dissolved so there will be nothing in the way of the final look of he implant. After 3 years of injections I don't even want to go out and see anyone with no lips again. So I guess I'm in hiding for a week.
Here are my before any filler, with filler, and I will update as we go along.
Thank you to all you beautiful people that share your stories that help the rest of us decide what to do.

after having filler for years including juvederm, restalyne and belotero countless times I had Dr. Harris do my implant 3 weeks ago and love them! You made a great decision!

Wow, your result is gorgeous! I know you wanted bigger but honestly this size looks beautiful on you for now, and so much poutier than your before pictures. Which doctor did you use?

Dissolving this Juvederm before procedure

The solution used to dissolve the Juvederm is no joke. Made my eyes water from the stinging. There is still some filler left in my lips but I think there is scar tissue in there making it seem like more.
I feel so self conscious with no lips.

Right after procedure

Hi all. Well I had my Permalip today. I had dental block for numbing. Didn't hurt putting them in but after wards (within 30 minutes) they felt really cold and my teeth hurt like when you eat cold stuff. It's kind of weird.
Second picture is 15 minutes after leaving the doctors office. Started to swell pretty bad.
Third picture is an hour later and fourth picture is 4 hours later. No clue why these are sideways....sorry.

It's amazing that you haven't swollen up enormously. Some of the photos immediatly after surgery are intimidating. Looking good!
I'm so glad you started your story on RealSelf! What size implants will you be getting? I'm looking forward to following your journey. :)
Durr, sorry! I just re-read your title. Five mm. Keep us updated!
