Lip Fillers

[Upintheair83]

@Upintheair83 if you don't mind me asking, how come you regret your cheek fillers?

No of course!!its fine! Well at first they bruised so badly and were very swollen, I was so embarrassed to go to work with it. I’d never experienced it before with fillers.
Obv the swelling went down, I would say, a week after.
But I feel they haven’t ‘worn’ well. I think it’s left a few irregularities in my face. I think molly mae said it made her face abit odd too, I don’t know how to explain it.
Almost like it’s made my face less symmetrical and made my eyes seem abit more hollow than normal. And because it made my eyes seem that way, I then had to have tear trough fillers!
Maybe it’s just me, to be fair, Iv got very high cheek bones and a slim face so I think that but of roundness I was looking for couldn’t really be achieved.
I mean, this is just my experience. Everyone is different and Iv seen some really lovely work on some people. But I won’t be having it again, but I wouldn’t rule out fillers elsewhere. I think it’s whatever suits your face xx

I've been getting lip fillers for a while and finally found my go-to place! I've had the ducky look before and didn't like it, but like you said, they look so beautiful on some people. My current provider uses the Russian Lip Technique, it's way more natural looking and gives you that mid-lip plump. Love it!

I’ve had filler a few times in the last 3/4 years always 1ml. The first time I was worried about having so much and looking like Pete burns but I found once the swelling went down they looked full but still pretty natural. Probably going to have another ml before Christmas as it’s been nearly a year since I had any.

I really want 0.5/1ml doing. My bottom lip is OK but it’s my top lip that disappears when I smile with teeth so I don’t smile like that lol. Silly I know. I have a friend who is talking me out of it, but I think it would give me confidence

Do it! This is the main reason I had mine done and I’m so pleased I took the plunge x

Have 1ml into top and bottom lip!
My first time I said my bottom lip was fine so she put 0.5ml mostly in the top and I found my top lip stood out abit more....was more firm plump...hard to explain! didn’t look bad and no one could notice it apart from me but looks a lot better shared between both lips!!x

I smoked for a few years, off them now, but feel like I have the smoker lines, would filler smooth them out? Any advice?

A friend of mine gets them done for this reason

Just came across this by accident, I have no knowledge at all about filler. Do you guys think inthefrow’s filler is up to standard or good according to your standard or beauty industry?

 

[eSsExBiRd]

Love love LOVE my fillers!!! I had them done 6 months ago, only 0.5ml as it was my first time and I honestly wouldn’t not have them in! I’m converted!

The lady I went to only does fillers and brows, has a very clean and minimal outside surgery on her own property and has amazing reviews. She talked through the whole process, side effects, aftercare and advised me to start small and see how it goes. It felt weird to start but good aftercare is key.

They still look great now but I’m likely to have a top up by the end of the year, I may even push it to 0.75ml.

I had my lips done March 2019 last year and once the swelling had gone down u couldn’t tell I had them done, I had 1ml. I decided to have them done again 6 months later 1ml can slightly see a difference but I think the filler just comes out as I always bleed once having the treatments

I’ve had 1ml of lip filler twice.

The first time was from an aesthetics place who specialised in them and they did look nice and I had them cheaper than usual as they had a student offer on while I was doing my undergrad.

I got them redone last summer by a nurse who lives by me for a similar price as the first would’ve cost had I not been a student and I loved them, they looked so good. Planning on going back after lockdown I have normal sized lips anyway and 1ml didn’t make them look fake at all, just a really nice plump size (once the swelling had gone down!)

Did anyone else find it extremely painful..

Oh and don’t waste money on 0.5ml. It basically does nothing more than hydrate your lips, they’d swell for a day and you’d love them then the swelling goes down and there wouldn’t really be a difference.

Second this 100%. I was wary about having 1ml as I already have decent sized lips. But I was advised that having 0.5ml won’t show much and if you’ve got bigger lips anyway then they can take 1ml, and this was bang on for me. I wouldn’t bother with 0.5ml, it’s too expensive for it not to show much afterwards.

Sorry to jump in and ask... But I really want fillers, but I'm terrified of needles and the thought of having them in my lip makes me feel sick! Was anyone else the same and how did you manage?

I don’t like needles much, although I’m not terrified, I do kind of jump away if I see them I just said to her to tell me when she was getting the needle so that I could close my eyes then. And I just kept my eyes closed for the whole treatment. They’d rather you do that than risk an incident like you jump and it goes into the wrong place or something, it was totally fine.

I'm new to deciding I would like some lip fillers too. I am a smoker so have some creases in my lips, they are relatively full but I just want them plumped to smooth them out if anything. I dont want anything drastic. However I have a scar in the middle of my bottom lip, could this effect results at all if anyone knows? Also I had no idea dentists and doctors (surely this is not your regular doctor is it? Sorry to sound dumb!) do them either, do all dentists offer this?

I haven’t had mine done but my friend does fillers as well as being a qualified nurse. According to her, scars can impact your results. Like you could even have scar tissue sort of underneath from falling as a child or whatever that you wouldn’t know about but could make your lips wonky if you get fillers . It’s the one thing that really puts me off

i got 0.5 in each lip but you literally cannot tell the difference. My lips were big anyway i just hated that when i smiled they always seemed to disappear!
Thinking of going to get 1ml but i feel like that will then look blow up doll esque and i also dont want the pain again!!

 

[DoctorWho]

I have mine done about 4 times a year. As above my advice would be to go to someone who just does asethetics. They do it full time. Dentists don’t.
Do a lot of research! What area are you in? I may be able to recommend someone x

 

[yankydoo]

Can anyone recommend a good place in London for the natural look.
