She decided she wanted to inject a little bit of Juvederm Volift which would help feather in the Voluma making the lips softer. My lips are naturally wonky so I want this corrected when having fillers but this is hard to get 100% correct at first because of the swelling so its always good to re-evaluate once the swelling has gone. This time Sarah noticed a little bit of asymmetry, I didn’t notice but she’s the expert. My lips gradually got more swollen as the evening went on and by the next day they were even more swollen but this wasn’t cause for concern at all. After a few days the swelling started to go down but it took a little longer than usual because of the product we used.Ī couple of weeks past and I headed back to London for my check up. Once the numbing cream wore off my lips started to ache but were fine by the next day. I left the clinic feeling satisfied but Sarah mentioned that she would like to see me in a couple of weeks to check everything was perfect. After giving my lips a massage we were finished. Even with the numbing cream my eyes still watered a little when the needle went in there. The injections were all around the edge of the lip and the worst area for pain was, and always is, the cupids bow. The numbing cream she used was amazing and after no more than 10 minutes I was numb. Sarah doesn’t always usually apply numbing cream unless requested by the patient, because the needle was a little bigger with Voluma I definitely wanted to be as numb as possible. If you have the same issues as me please don’t just go to anyone if you want to try this product.
This filler isn’t usually used in the lips so you must go to a Dr who knows exactly what they are doing when using this product. Finally we decided to give 2ml of Juverderm Voluma a go as it is a stiffer, more robust product. Sarah explained to me how filler works and the different types we could try. I mentioned that filler doesn’t seem to last as long on me as it usually does on most people. After a warm welcome we discussed the kind of look I wanted. Therefore, by the time the swelling went down they weren’t much bigger than how they started, which is also a reason they probably didn’t seem to last too long.īack in November I visited Dr Sarah Tonks at The Lovely Clinic inside Omniya in Knightsbridge, London. I tended to like the look of my lips when they were first done which meant they were still swollen. However, since that particular filler went off the market I have tried numerous products from Juvederm which only lasted for a very short amount of time, making it not worth the money.
I tried a product from Restylane, which now doesn’t exist, which lasted the longest out of all the products I had used. Side note, how orange do I look?! And those brows…urgh!įor years I went to a local clinic and would have 1ml of filler. ^ A couple of days after my first lip filler experience in 2010, I loved how they looked but they were still swollen. We’ve decided it could be that I have a fast metabolism so break down the product really fast or perhaps I didn’t use enough product for the desired result. The reason why there won’t be many photos/videos of myself with juicy lips despite having them done over the past 5 years is because the product never lasts very long on me. If you scroll through my YouTube or Instagram you will find the odd photo/video here and there of me with a larger pout but theres not many and none of my viewers noticed back then. Yes, thats right, before the Kylie Jenner lip obsession began! However, over the past few weeks people over my social media channels seem to have only started to notice since my last procedure. I have been having lip fillers for the past 5 years *Shock Shock Horror*.
