Having perma lip done in the morning!
Have taken the meds regularly(valtrex, and antibiotics, along with something to help bruising and swelling. Opting not to take the Valium to help relax me because I don't Iike feeling "out of it" and want to be able to drive myself home.
I have packed a lunch box cooler with ice packs to take with me for the drive home(under 20min) so I am ready to go!

They look great. Did you get 5mm in the top and bottom lip?

Yes , don't see the real sense in doing the smaller one because the 5mm aren't large at all

Procedure went well. Only discomfort was the numbing injections.. Now that I'm home and icing my lips every half hour there is some burning/tingling. Took one pain pill( Tylenol #3) made me dizzy so I might just take regular Tylenol until bed time. Seems like icing makes the burning worse, I guess because my lips are ao stretched and sensitive but I know I have to push through to keep the sweelling down or I will really be in pain later

Feeling much more bruised but less burning/tingling. Sleeping sitting up last night was horrible and iced and took pain meds every 4 hours or so. FYI don't plan on being able to out in public for the first several days.. I using my sons baby spoons to push food past my lips

Sleeping sitting up is SO hard! Hopefully this weekend will be better for you. What do you think of the results so far?

Even with all the swelling on my actual lip I love the size and shape, but I am also very swollen around my entire mouth which makes me look silly
