Review: Get Younger Looking Lips Whilst Visiting Dubai

Make the most of your visit to Dubai when travelling from Bahrain and get yourself a plumped up pout minus the laugh lines of course!

For the past few years, I have been toying with the idea of getting lip fillers, looking online at some diverse types of before and after photos of people that have had lip fillers and always wanted to try the procedure out for myself and my thinning pout. 

After some careful research and a lot of self-reflection, I confidently decided to go for it.

When it comes to the world of beauty, I prefer the "loud and proud" of sharing all my first hand experiences in the hope that others may benefit from them.

I was looking to get lip fillers in Dubai and decided to visit the trusted Dr. Allen Rezai at Elite Plastic & Cosmetic Surgery Group.

During my consultation with Dr. Allen Rezai I asked several questions:
 

  • How long will they last? Approximately between 9months to 12 months.
  • Will the lip fillers feel lumpy? Any lumpy feeling, I have I can massage away.
  • Any special things to do post treatment? Drink lots of water.
  • How painful will it be? Topical numbing cream is applied to reduce the pain
  • Recovery time? Dr. Allen Rezai explained there is a degree of swelling and sometimes bruising. But it should only last a few days.
  • Will my lips return to normal if I don’t want them anymore? If for whatever reason you decide to not want filler in your lips and to remove the filler the can inject a compound called Hyaluronidase which immediately reverses the effect.

 
When I sat down with Dr. Allen Rezai, I explained what I was looking for, that I like the shape of my lips and feel they have lost volume over the years and that I’m looking for the natural enhancement of what I already have.

I was all ready for my procedure, with lips cleaned and the lovely assistant Rose applied topical numbing cream to my lips. After 15 mins I was all numb and ready for the filler.

Dr. Allen Rezai started off with my top lip and explaining through out what he was doing. So first he started off with adding volume to the lips. Feeling a little hesitant for pain I can honestly say I did not feel anything. Dr. Allen Rezai has the softest and the gentlest touch and is not heavy handed at all. After the top lip had been injected with the filler I was given the mirror to have a look. The result was instant. When I looked at my lip WOW was my first expression as I loved the fuller look instantly

Onto the bottom lip, again, I felt no pain and not even the needle. Once my bottom lip had had the filler for volume Dr. Allen Reazi explained that he would then contour the lips for further definition. In between Dr. Allen massaged my lips, with the contouring done Dr. Allen then asked if I would like to have the two lines above the cupids bow on the top lip and nose done for a little more definition? I was so happy he asked me before I could. I had the chance to see my lips through each step of the filler.

As mentioned before Dr. Allen explained that my lips would be a little swollen after and there may be some bruising but not to massage the lips until 3 days after. Arnica gel was applied to my lips after.

My lips visibly swelled a little for three days after the procedure with a little bruising. They didn’t feel sore at all.  I could feel some little bumps inside my lips (you can feel them, but cannot see them). At the end of it all, I was extremely happy. The results were subtle, but also visible enough that I could tell something had changed. Most people didn't even notice when they saw me, although I did have a few friends comment on how "lovely my lip gloss looked."

As you can see my lips look very natural and have not lost the natural lines and do not look swollen or puffy at all.

My Expression is that it’s a science when it comes to lip injections/filler and it’s not only what is in the needle but also the Dr. that is behind the needle.  The lips are one of the most delicate parts of the face and require the attention of a doctor with many years of experience. Now I’m hooked! It has given me the little extra boost of confidence while I still look like me.

All in all, I give lip fillers my kiss of approval.

Thank You Dr. Allen Rezai for listening to what I wanted and giving me the perfect pout!
