WORTH IT$1,500
It's been a year, and I know one of the biggest questions regarding fat transfer is: Will the fat stay? Ive had my fair share of lip locking, ups and downs in my weight, and none of that changed the amount of fat cells in my lips! I emailed my doc (Henderson) for some photos cause after all- my camera is not the best lol. And this profile view really really captures the added projection and shape retention! It looks so natural and so good, and best of all, it feels like all my own. Maybe in 10 years I'll add some more, but for now I am super happy with how they turned out.

Final Result
I have lost a little weight and my lips were subjected to a bit of winter dryness, but here is the final result with no swelling. The lips have 0 scars from the injection sites, and there are no lumps or loss of sensation.

I dont see much of a difference either. I heard silikon 1000 injections are permanent and give a more dramatic result. I'm on the hunt for the right doctor.

Week 1
Thanks to a diet of almost all protein, less than 20mg of sodium a day, Arnica Montana (both oral and gel), bromelain supplements, light exercise, and icing continuously (45 mins on, 15 off every hour); my lip swelling was mostly resolved within 1 week. No pain and full sensitivity. My boyfriend does not even feel the addition. In his words, "It just feels like lips; only more lips now." Love love love it!

2-4 weeks. i was able to go to the grocery store after 1 week, and it was clear i had lip injections... but they no longer looked like sausages. After 2 weeks only my close friends noticed, but they told me it looked hot! After 4 weeks, they had decreased quite a bit, but they are still about 20% bigger than pre-op.

Today is 14 days post for me and my lips are still swollen. When I talk my lips & mouth look pretty stiff & mechanical. Lips always feel frozen, especially the upper lip.

Don't ever gain weight. the fat that survives in your lips will grow like other fat in your body. And not necessarily in an even manner. That was something I never knew when I had fat transfer to my lips. I just had a lip reduction for too much fat in my lips :(
