 Posted: 07/16/07 - 19:57 Post subject: I have tried lip reduction |
  |
|
| My lips were not necessarily too big but were too big for my face. Girls used to call me ugly because my features didn't go together. Turns out that there's supposed to be an equality from the top to bottom of the center of your eye socket and the top to bottom of the center of your lips. If that equality is not there, your face will look weird or even unattractive. I had a lip reduction and it wasn't perfect but it helped a lot. |

|
|
I had standard lips and had collagen injected in both the top and bottom with one cc per injection.The lady informed me that since it is not permanent and body reabsorbs collagen to repeat four times unti lscar tissue develops and the results stay. I did so and I believe she used silicone on the last visit -- the lips never went down and I have been walking around with fish lips ever since and I am now going to have them reduced. All people I know imitate the fish lips I now have and people ask if i have herpes on my mouth, I was let go from one job and my mother says as a hispanic girl I now look mulatto, which I am alright with but others dislike it.
I am in long beach california lookng fora good doctor, any references? |

| First I want to commend you for taking the steps to improve yourself despite what others have to say. I live in San Antonio Texas and wanted to know where in Texas you had the procedure done. I've been to 1 doctor who explained that he would only do my bottom lip and his billing clerk said it would cost 1200 for the doctor another 1200 for the numbing doc plus 600 for the surgery ctr. (I have to pay two weeks n advance) I'm concerned with symmetry of the lip afterwards so I'm not rushing n 2 it yet. |

I just had the lip reduction surgery a few days ago and I deeply regret it. I wish I had done more research on it. I am in so much pain and the swelling is so awful. It cost me over $4000.00 and I already feel it was not worth the money or the trouble. My face is swollen and my lips are numb and sore. I am slobbering all over my self when I try to drink water or even eat a piece of bread. I am stuck in my house until the swelling goes down. I should have bought myself a cute little used car for $4000.00 |
Has the swelling gone down since?..How do you feel now? (asking with much care) |

you should def let them know that this has been bothering you and that it lowers your self esteem..they should understand..but at the end of the day...it's up to you to decide..just do your complete research of doctors, side effects and all that b4 you tell them so that you can back it up when they ask you questions they need answers to. Good luck! ps. prayer helps major!  |

Mysurgeon used dissolvable stitches. The surgery doesn't really hurt but the stitches and the swelling will be unconfortable for 4 days but after that the stitches will start to dissolve; within 7 to 10 days everything will be gone. I think you should do because like i had very big lips , i used to suck my tongue and i have been teased a lot when i was young so i always had this complex. Good luck and i can't wait to see the final result. |
Hi Ayeesha, can you tell me how are your lips now since the surgery?..Are they straight or is there asymetry? |
