Skin Care Review: Juviederm injectable filler

by Teresa Acosta, Cairo, CA Egypt

Rating
No effect

Benefits
lips did look fuller and the upper lip lines decreased.

Drawbacks
Injections hurt. Used elma and ice during injections. Over 2 weeks, 2 vials.

Details
Iced my lips during and the rest of day to prevent too much swelling. My lips did not fill out to give my lips the "pouty" look I was expecting to see. It gave me an almost "duck bill", extended out lips. Obvious to anyone looking at me that they had been injected with a substance. Within 3 weeks I could see that some of the fullness was already being reabsorbed back into my body. While visiting family in the states, I saw another plastic surgeon to ask about my procedure. Said some people reaborb the fillers much faster than others. It was gone by 7 weeks.

Conclusions
Disappointed that the lips didn't look pouty: and that the filler reabsorbed so fast.

Price (paid by reviewer)
$400.00

Where to find it
Cairo, Egypt
