Physical and mental prepping

Initially, you need to know how big you realistically want your lips. Because let’s face it. Your lips absolutely cannot look bigger than your face. Talk to your doctor and get suggestions before the lip injections.

Physically, the experts suggest that you should refrain from Motrin, Aleve, aspirin, fish oil, multivitamins and vitamin E for about a week before your appointment. Each can act as a blood thinner and result in post-injection bruising.

Each filler can achieve different things

The dermal fillers are hyaluronic acid-based, a substance that occurs naturally in our bodies and highly attracted to water and binds to moisture. And the substance is quite resistant to lumps and bumps –and you might feel a few right after and it will even out quickly.

And choosing the best filler is done by your doctor and it depends on your needs.

The look does not come cheap

Start saving now. Even it all it takes is only a teaspoon of the material it is going take a huge punch right in the face of your savings.

The filler is not forever

We know you wish it was. The life span of your new lips might last 6 months to a year depending on the formula you choose. Everybody metabolizes differently. So it could affect you differently too.
