Permalip Implant (5mm)

Post 5.5 years
WORTH IT$1,600
It has been almost 6 years since surgery, while everything is ok, I think they are a bit smaller than I want them to be. I originally got 5mm but got them redone in 2014 in Austin because the length was too short and kept poking out but I don’t Rembrandt what thickness he re put in. Oops! Because if he went smaller than 5 I could get them redone but if I have a 5 in already I’ll have to keep going for injections

5 months later looking good!
I finally feel used to the size and that the implants are part of me. Sensation is back completely and my boyfriend can't feel anything when kissing. I forget I even have implants! 8 )

Hi Noey! thank you for the review! My procedure is coming up very soon (this tuesday!) and am doing local anesthetic, not getting put to sleep.. my boyfriend tells me this is a terrible idea and that I will be in so much pain, was wondering if you did local and if you felt anything? thank you! :)

Hi Serenades. Sorry I didn't get back to you in time. Hope your surgery went well! From my research Id say the procedure is usually done locally or sometimes with no anesthesia at all. I didn't do local and was just numbed. but it was extremely nerve-wracking and uncomfortable. ( I could feel all the tugging and pulling) It didn't hurt but I feel they should've given me a sedative to help calm nerves!

Hi Noey,
What size were your lips before you had the implants or any filler? I have to get fillers every 2 months as they don't last in my lips :( your implants look great & I would love some myself :) also, do you have to have any filler removed before having the implants? Thanks Charlie

I am wondering where the Dr places the tunnel for implant, I have seen youtube videos where they follow the wet/dry line and my Dr says you follow the vermillion (lip/skin ?) line. I am inclined to think they look better on the wet/dry line. Getting done in Jan.

Hello, your results look great! This much time later, do you still have trouble with your lips always being chapped? Thank you. I want to get this done.

Whew! So It has been 7 weeks since surgery and I've finally gained full mobility back in both lips. They were chapping and peeling badly too so I've been using Blistex like every couple hours. Other than those two issues, I love my results and totally satisfied with my lips!!! I've been getting compliments on a daily basis. People can't tell they've been enhanced either! ...hehehe I'm sneaky. I love not having to wonder when my filler is going to dissolve and slowly watch my pucker deflate. Finally found permanent solution and over the long run the procedure is definitely worth the investment! I highly recommend my surgeon and Permalip to anyone considering implants.

Wondering if you feel that you've lost upper tooth show because of the implant?

April 30, 2013
That was actually something I was worried about, but willing to take the risk. I'm happy to report no loss of tooth show at all. The amount of teeth showing when smiling is exactly the same. The upper lip just looks much fuller, of course.

Hello. You look great! I'm thinking of getting the implants but have a couple concerns. I was just wondering if you lost any sensation in your lips at all? Or if it changed the way you talk? Thanks :)

These look great. I have been doing Juvederm and I really want something permanent. I was just wondering, how long did it take for you to recover? Were you able to do things the next week or no? I just want to know how long I'll have to take off work, especially before swelling goes down!

August 6, 2013
Thanks. It took only a few days for my body to feel normal. There was still a lot of swelling for the first two weeks. For the first 3 days, I couldn't eat any solid food and had trouble drinking too. I would give yourself at least 4-5 days to recover before you go back to work! Good luck!
