<3 JUVEDERM!
I LOVE MY LIPS!! Just uploaded pics to a new album. 
I've had Juvederm in my lips before, but it's been about a year and a half, so I had a little touch-up yesterday.
First time, in early Feb 2012, I had about 3/4 of the 1cc syringe, then the remainder in early June. I remember being a bit puffy the first day, then that night and the next morning my lips were like balloons - the swelling subsided dramatically over the next day.
Yesterday, I used only 1/2 half cc in my lips, but this time, started swelling immediately, and thought I'd made a HUGE mistake in the name of my silly vanity. My lips are already pretty full, but I wanted a little extra 'oomph' - but the immediate swelling gave me that dreaded 'duck' look in my upper lip, and I feared my results this time. I was afraid I'd overdone it, and was fretting all the way home - but by the time I arrived it was already subsiding, WHEW. (Since the swelling the day after was so bad last year, I loaded up on arnica tabs and cream this time, and cut off all ibuprofen and caffeine for 24 hours prior to having this done. The swelling last night and today hasn't been anywhere near as bad. YAY!)
They're still probably a bit puffier than my final result, but I absolutely love 'em. Hylauronic acid fillers are some of the best inventions ever! I don't have my dream boobs yet, so I figured I'd post about this one small victory.
I would recommend Juvederm to anyone!

I just got Juvederm in my lips for the first time when I got my BA Monday. I LOVE MY LIPS TOO!
I was so afraid they would look silly, but they look amazing! So natural, I feel like I have a beautiful mouth!

Restylane is also awesome! I've had some around the tear troughs and cheekbones. I did experience a little more swelling with Resty, but wasn't as careful about not taking ibuprofen, so maybe that's why. Is it safe for directly under the eyes?
I've heard Radiesse is awesome for cheekbones!

Yup, I got Restalyne under my eyes too, I could not be happier.
I am just afraid for the next time. It was wonderful not having to feel a thing while under general. I am scared, but I will def do again.

So they injected the Restylane when you were under for your BA? That's convenient! Usually they just put numbing cream on the area, wait 10 minutes then fill away. It's not too bad.

I did it the first time while I had my BA. I was freaked out about the 2nd time being awake but it was fine with the numbing cream.

A little in both to keep the proportions the same.
