Worked Great on Fine Lip Lines. In my Mid-50's. San Antonio, TX

The filler was applied only to the upper lip line, not the lips themselves. I have had lip filler in the past from a different doctor, and didn't care for the result. My lips were puffy and I still had the fine lines above the lips. I think the application to the lip line for this product was key.

How painful was the injections? I am supposed to have this very same procedure done tomorrow for my lip lines . Can you go about your normal daily routine or did you have to stay indoors for a day or so?

Hi Candy, sorry for not getting back to you earlier, hope everything went well. For me, the injections did not hurt, though it was a bit uncomfortable having injections in this area. To reduce any pain, a numbing cream was used, and I also applied ice packs to that area for 15 minutes before the procedure, and a couple hours afterwards. I think the ice packs are really important. I use them when I get facial fillers. I actually have a trick I use...I stuff a ski mask with little ice packs, and just wear it for the rest of the day. Works like a charm.

Hi jeff, the product was Beletero. This is a filler that I understand is less dense than other fillers, and therefore works better for very fine lines around the mouth.

This was my second injection. The first one lasted for 8 months before I wanted a touch up.
