I see a make over in your future!

I love to have that done and write down everything they used... I try it out for the day and go back to buy...so I can see different lights and how it wears on my skin.

@@BigGirlPanties when I had my first round of plastics I had a makeover done at sephora and ulta. Now I need to try Mac. There are some awesome tutorials on YouTube (some awful ones, too, LOL).

You are really going to love having big luscious lips. Take it from me, big lips are sexy, fun, and beautiful.

Take very good care of yourself and those lips. (Smile - no wait don't smile, it might hurt - smile)

I know how sensitive the lips are and the pain can be exceedingly hard to endure. Hang in there and "this too shall pass."

@@Sweet Pee awww, thank you. I cannot wait to see my results! I am soooo excited that Dr. Winslow was able to do my lips.

I am really trying to learn about "face work".

I have been advised that a fat transfer to the face is probably the best thing for me to do. That is not cheap since you are sedated for that etc. i haven't really thought about lips, but I have super thin lips naturally and they would definately look better a bit "filled"

So - can someone point me to a resource of how to really investigate "face work"?

Hope your recovery goes great!

You may post questions to plastic surgeons on RealSelf. That may be helpful. And ask ask ask patients whom have had work done already... especially message them privately where they are likely to be more open than on a public forum.

I do not have any burning. It is not supposed to burn, even though it is a chemical burn. Maybe without the aquaphor it would??? Yes, I hope that I like the results.

I tried injectables in my lips a few months ago and you're right, it hurts!! I felt like I got punched for a few hours. I also wasn't overly crazy about the results, although the doctor I went to was fairly conservative. Best wishes for a speedy recovery!

It takes a few times for the filler to stick. My body was absorbing it pretty quickly at first. After several sticks it lasted longer. But I would have tears rolling out my eyes when she did it. I wasn't crying per se but my eyes were tearing up from the pain. I am so glad to not have to go through that anymore!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Best wishes for a speedy recovery. You looked beautiful before the surgery. You'll look spectacular afterwards, I'm sure!

Thank you very much!! All the skin peeled off by day 6. I am very happy with my new skin. The swelling has gone down a lot from the tuck up today and those results are looking good, too. Dr. Winslow does wonderful work... So does Dr. Capella. I feel so blessed to have found them.

Really loving my new skin after the TCA peel and the my fuller lips after the augmentation!!! I'm not wearing any makeup in this pic.
