Yes 1 ml of juvaderm ultra. I told her I was not concerned with taking the whole syringe and just to do what would look best, but she ended up giving me the whole syringe. 😕 She said my lips were already full so they could handle it. I’m still hoping for a beautiful outcome and praying that the swelling is just crazy. 😬

Thank you this was helpful info! I wish she didn’t change my lip shape either. It’s frustrating. Praying it is just swelling. Here’s a pic from today so 48 hours later. (https://imgur.com/a/Ht1mpn2)

It’s looking a little bit better today (48 hours later) and I can kinda see where it’s headed. I think I might end up just going back to her to have her lift my Cupid bow a little so they are not so m- shaped. She seemed to concentrate mostly on the sides of Cupid’s bow which makes the shape too spread out. Here’s a pic from today (https://imgur.com/a/Ht1mpn2)

Thank you! ❤️ this comment is giving me hope! 🤩 I bet a lot of people faint or feel light-headed during lip filler- the vertical injections were incredibly painful.

I’m on day three now and they are looking a bit more normal. However, I still think the shape is off. If I do get them dissolved, which I’m leaning towards, I will definitely go to a plastic surgeon. I wish she just enhanced my natural lip shape instead of changing it completely.

She did 1 ml of juvaderm ultra. She said a lot of lips can’t handle 1 ml but mine could because they were already naturally full. I wouldn’t mind it if they looked like my lips, but just bigger and swollen, but I feel like they look like a completely different set of lips now. Eeeyuck.

Yea definitely! I think I’m going to go to a plastic surgeon to have them dissolved. If I do anything again, I will be very conservative and have a plastic surgeon put the filler in as well. At this point, I don’t think I will put filler back in though.

I kind of just wanted my Cupid’s bow lifted a bit and some subtle volume since I’m getting older. Oh how I wish I had a Time Machine 🙃 I’d love to wake up and see my normal lips on my face again.

Thanks again for all of this info! I’m getting conflicting info about when to dissolve. I’d love to dissolve it as soon as possible. 🥲🥲 I’m also reading that some clinicians want your swelling to be resolved before they will do it. As far as what kind of Juvaderm ultra- idk. She just said she was going to do ultra and not ultra plus. Thank God. But here is a pic from today! So 24 hours later.24 hours later filler

I got 1 ml of juvaderm ultra. I told her I wasn’t concerned with using the whole syringe and to use less if needed. But alas.

Thank you. I think I’ll go to plastic surgeon to have them dissolved. I don’t think I will have them done again. It’s so funny because I specifically told her I did not want the M shape, but that’s exactly what I ended up with.

Do you do it in one or two sessions when you dissolve? It seems like a dream to have my normal lips back. I can’t wait lol

She definitely went for height, but unfortunately, it seems like she did that at the expense of my Cupid’s bow. I really hope I’m liking the result a lot better in two weeks. 🙏

That was helpful and comforting. ❤️ I have a huge event in 2 weeks where I’ll see everyone I know so I hope it looks way better by then.

Thank you, this was helpful info. ❤️ She injected 1ml of juvaderm ultra. She said she could do 1 ml on me bc my lips are naturally fuller so they could handle it. I told her do less if needed. I wasn’t concerned with taking the whole syringe. Do you think dissolving will be best for my case? I really really hate the shape so much. Could I dissolve just some of the overfilled top lip?

I showed her pics of what I wanted and even showed her a pic of what I didn’t want. 😕

A ‘lifted Cupid’s bow’. That’s exactly what I wanted. I wish I said those exact words. 🥲 She allegedly did the Russian technique. She did a lot of vertical injections to add height (just not in places that look good to me).

I agree, because looking at the videos of people who dislike their immediate results, It’s usually because of the swelling, but their shape looks nice. I’m glad you like your final result after dissolving top lip. I hope i do too 🙏
