Numbing cream 40 minutes Local injection anesthesia in 4 spots (2 cheeks, 2 chin)
Repeated repeated repeated treatment at the same hospital
The reason is that they had been doing it since before lip filler became popularized?, and because the maintenance period is long, I kept getting the procedure only here
They applied numbing cream, I waited, then went into the procedure In the past, the procedure was done while sitting,
(first procedure again in almost 3 years) When I went after a long time, they did the procedure lying down
They gave anesthesia injections again where the numbing cream had been applied, and this hurt the most, it really hurt
And the procedure time took about 20 minutes!
The important thing here is that this director puts in the filler first, then uses dissolvable threads to define the lip line That’s why the procedure time is long and anesthesia is needed
If they used to put in 20 dissolvable threads before, this time they put in 40 more.. I was shocked just hearing the number... Seems like they did that to make it last longer
So if you look at the photo from the day of the procedure, the lips are extremely enlarged, and as time passes, they gradually start to go down At least a week has to pass for them to look like human lips
The areas where I had injection anesthesia bruised, so as time passes parts of the face turn yellowish?... It can be covered with BB cream or cushion foundation, so it’s okay
For about one to two days, the injection anesthesia sites hurt little by little The time it takes for bruises to disappear may vary by person, but for reference, on day 10 I still have them; yellowish, and it seems like it will take at least another week
There was a slightly lumpy area, so I went to the hospital and they repositioned it At this time there was no anesthesia or anything, and you can think of it as them massaging? the lips, but at this time I teared up a little ㅠㅠ
If you have any questions, please leave a comment! (Cost, hospital information, etc.)
Recently, because of COVID, I’ve been wearing a mask and not applying lipstick, so I don’t have any nicely taken shots, but this may actually be better for reference because it’s real-life photos?
