$500
It's been now about 5 months and I certainly am not satisfied with the overall experience. While the filler has dissolved a bit, my lips are still irregular. The lumps in the upper lip are still noticeable, the lower lip still thicker on one side and the needle entrance points are still a visible concern which might leave me forever with 1mm holes in my lips.
I do not recommend to go to this clinic.

Not satisfied
Overall, my result did not improve very much.
The lower lip was filled too much on the right side to balance out the left; now the right is bigger... Messaging only caused a small lump towards the corner of my lip.
The upper lip still has one lump that I cannot massage out and it hangs slightly above my teeth + a big gap right beside the lump makes it look even bigger.
I hope that the needle marks, which got stretched from the cannula, will disappear with more filler or when everything is dissolved.
All in all not a catastrophe, but definitely not worth it.
I might consider a different doctor in the future, but it seems that Japanese doctors tend to fill in the middle of the lips instead of the corners. The results are often irregular shaped duck lips, which are supposed to be cute and often even a point on the menu.
Also be aware that even doctors with foreign languages on their websites might not speak actual English. (This applies to doctors and services of all kinds in Japan, sadly.)

I chose Stylage with micro cannula/magic needle. Unfortunately the result is not very good. I got several bumps where too much filler has been added and it seems that the main cannula tunnels are still visible (whiter than rest of the lip). I also have a needle mark in one spot, maybe the doctor widened it too much with the moving cannula?
There's also a bump on my upper lip which I still try to massage out so that it doesn't hang over my teeth anymore.
In general not much swelling and only small bruises at the entrance points. I'm honestly disappointed considering that I paid a lot more than in cheaper clinics.
