Princess lip filler 1ml

[rleonard]

Thought i'd just post on here about Princess filler as before my lip augmentation i had never heard of and couldnt find much out about Princess

Just went to Eternity Laser Cosmetic Centre and got 1ml of Princess lip filler in my lips using a promotional voucher in which the filler cost $279

Procedure went really well, didn't take very long at all and the Dr had a clear understanding of my expectations

Local was administered to each side at the corner of the lip before filler injected

Pain wasnt an issue majority of the time, however mid upper lip the nurse (and Dr to a degree) delved deep and this was quite painful

One thing that did/does annoy me though was that I had the Dr standing on one side of me and the Nurse on the other and they were taking turns injecting my lips, so to say the Dr did the whole left side of my mouth and the nurse the right side, consequently I am not entirely convinced that they are fully equal

One other thing I can note is that the side on which the nurse was injecting, and this is by no means a bash to nurses, but there is an obvious feel in the difference of texture

Nothing the naked eye could see, but i myself can feel that the Drs handsmanship was much superior to that of the nurse's, i actually have quite a large lump at the edge of the right side of my upper lip

Have only just had them done over 90mins ago and swelling isn't too bad, no visible bruising and no visible exit/entry points

The product itself is said to be of the same quality as others on the market ie juvaderm and restylane, however it just hasnt been marketed like they have

Princess is a european brand that is yet to have been overly marketed

Longevity and softness are said to be the same as those other brands, however more dependent on the individual's metabolism

Will update pics soon

update: 4 days post 1ml princess filler

 

Swelling completely subsided, and consequently I find myself pretty damn disappointed in my purchase even if it were reduced to $279

I see next to no difference and have been left with a fairly big bruise on my upper lip

Note: the bruising came up the morning after and has still not gone away nor faded

These are before filler injection

These are on the SAME day AFTER injection

Sounds to me like a training situation if 2 people injecting...

NOW at FOUR days post

 

This is the first time i have had lip fillers, can someone please advise whether or not this is normal? and if i expected too much?

Sounds to me like a training situation if 2 people injecting...

Yes i agree, im currently trying to contact them to ask if that was the case and that if it were, they should have discussed that with me before waiting until i closed my eyes to take to my lips

Have you had much experience? can you take a look at my photos and let me know if its dodgy or normal

They absolutely should have gained your permission to be a training model but given the circumstance and reduced cost of filler it sounds very much like the doctor was training the nurse (my guess based on your information I could be wrong). 

 

I dont know much about princess filler except it is very soft, I don't think much lift, more hydration once the swelling subsides.  Perhaps this is where the disappointment lies, otherwise they look great

Hi. The injector at the client i go to also princess. I had never heard of it (i only go there for other things not injectables) 

She said it may not last as long as juverderm. On the other hand, someone at LCA told me it was the same quality!

I got 1ml on Thursday....5 days later swelling gone and no difference at all! I am seeing injector again in 3 weeks. I paid $389 for juv ultra at LCA sydney
