Solving Thin Lip Worries! Lip Filler Pain, Bruising, and Results Review

It is said that as you get older, one of the symptoms of aging is that your lips become thinner.

I think there might be people in their 50s and 60s who can relate to this, but my mom's upper lip has also gotten thinner compared to before.

Her lips weren't particularly plump to begin with, but they became even thinner as she aged, so she was very stressed about it. That is why she decided to get lip fillers this time.

 

I saw some posts saying that lip fillers are quite painful when looking at other reviews.

My mom is usually sensitive to pain, so I warned her in advance that the lip filler would be quite painful.

 

First, when you visit a dermatologist, you need to wash your face for a skin diagnosis.

All items for grooming your face before and after treatment, as well as your hair, are well-equipped.

My mom only applied sunscreen before leaving, so she came out after a quick wash.

 

There are so many different types of lip fillers, but my mom decided on New Maris filler.

Actually, rather than my mom deciding, I looked into it for her.

 

New Maris filler is

This is a hyaluronic acid-based filler that is less intimidating for first-time fillers and is suitable for use on areas with thin skin and high movement, such as the lips. It features a lineup with different viscosities and characteristics for various areas, allowing you to select the product that best suits your lip condition.

It is also said that it is often used for tidying up lip lines or supplementing facial contours because it is relatively easy to adjust the shape.

Hyaluronic acid-based fillers are hyaluronic acid (HA) based fillers, so they are gradually absorbed into the body over time, and are generally known to last for about 6 to 12 months.

They say you should usually put in 1 to 1.5 CC, and anything more might be too much. My mom has quite thin skin, so she used 1.3 CC.

 

Since filling in too much from the start can look awkward just because the lips are thin, they recommended getting a small amount initially and then getting it done again a few months later as a touch-up. They also agreed to proceed according to my mom's face shape and the overall condition of her lips.

 

There was a process of taking photos to check the condition of the skin and lips, like a virtual simulation.

They checked the thickness of my lips, any asymmetry between the left and right sides, and the condition of fine lines or dryness.

They also explained that because the elasticity and thickness of lip tissue vary from person to person, the results may appear different even with the same dosage.

 

I paid and moved to the treatment room.

Apply pain relief cream and wait 30 minutes.

Once the procedure begins, they will verify that it is a genuine New Maris product.

After filler procedure

My biggest concern before the procedure was the pain of lip fillers.

As soon as I came out, I asked my mom if she was in pain, and she said, "No! I'm not in pain!"

She said it felt a little numb, but she didn't feel much pain from the lip filler.

My mom usually can't tolerate pain well, but she said she didn't feel much pain from the lip filler.

 

This is a photo I took after coming back home.

It was more swollen than when I left the hospital.

I had read beforehand that lip fillers can be painful, so I was worried that I might not be able to eat properly, but fortunately, I was able to resume my daily activities, including eating, immediately without any problems.

 

The next day, I noticed a bruise on the area where I got the filler.

A slightly red scab formed, but it disappeared a few days later.

Instead, they said their lips became much drier than usual after the procedure.

So, you spent your time applying lip balm generously.

 

The bruising and swelling have all gone down now, and it is stable.

Your lower lip was originally plump, but I think it blends well. It looks natural.

 

And the recovery period is much faster than expected. About ten days?

They said it is recommended to get a touch-up after 6 months to a year, so they plan to see how long it lasts for now.

I think the best approach to procedures is to not be too greedy and to do it naturally, tailored to your own body structure!

I imagine many people are worried about the pain of lip fillers, but the pain was less than expected, and since I could return to my daily life immediately, it was a relatively simple procedure!
