I have an appointment to get lip fillers for the first time. I want natural looking results, nothing too big. I know it takes time to settle, but will I be able to go to work the next day without it being noticeable?

I get volbella which is the most natural looking one. Buy arnica tablets and the gel and just use that like crazy. Don’t drink any alcohol or take ibuprofen for 48 hours before because that can make you bruise more.

I was lucky because I didn’t really swell but I did have some mild bruising. It was definitely noticeable for a few days. I know for some it can be up to 2 weeks.

My aunt’s looked natural, but she looked like she got in a bar fight with someone for 4 days after the filler.

Maybe consider a lip flip as opposed to filler: no down time and looks very natural

You will most likely bruise and it can take about a week and a half to go away. I went back to the office after mine and wore a mask. I also had a dark lipstick to put on for calls

Good idea, if you bruise just wear a mask 😷 I had black eyes after PRP my 3rd time but never before. I hid it with glasses, mask and makeup concealer. It was very annoying.

My lips look so natural and I go to one of the most popular med spas in Beverly Hills and I still swell and bruise for a good week. I point out the popularity and skill of where I go to say skill level of the injector and natural results don’t matter, if you’re going to swell then you’re going to swell. Everyone’s body reacts differently! Good luck :)

Where are you based? If you want a natural aesthetic or inspiration, check out Plump on IG in NYC.

You’ll likely have a bit of bruising after it but nothing dark lipstick won’t cover.

Better to under correct and tweak 2 weeks later if needed. Good dermatologists treat this way.

I just got a really great offer, only downside is the eligibility for maternity leave is after 12 months of employment. We got a faint positive today but have had so many chemical pregnancies over the past year that I am not confident it will stick this time BUT I am on aspirin and progesterone for this try … so it could.. I want to see if I could negotiate being eligible earlier but I also don’t want them to think I’m pregnant when I’m not actually… How would you approach the conversation?
