Title: Lips Lipofilling
Post by: primrose on June 08, 2015, 11:17:52 AM
I had lipofilling in my upper lip three days ago. Goodness me, I look like a freak, my lip is huge and I can hardly open my mouth. I have no idea when the swelling will go down or what the final result will look like. If any of you girls have had lip lipofilling please share your experience and how long you had to wait before you looked like an actual human and not a fish lol

Do you mean the swelling or the lipofilling was all gone in a few days?

the swelling went down after 2 days but the fat was mostly gone after 2 weeks, I think to do a good job the surgeon has to overfill alot

Its usually the rule to overfill for about 30% of desired result. What you have now is swelling which will go away in few weeks.

well my advice is not to do it if you have to go to work the next day. I get stared at when out in public, it's horrible. And yes they overfill them as the majority of fat dissipates.
