I found Dr. Velargo on RealSelf, asked around – heard lots of positive comments, and had my consult. I was immediately impressed by his office and staff. My first few appointments were for Botox; finally, my eyebrows are in the right place. He honestly tries to make you as comfortable during injections as possible, but lip injections are never really comfortable, and the results don’t last .I was looking for a more permanent solution to the vanishing upper lip. I had a lip lift on July 2, and the results just keep getting better. If you want something that really takes years off, this is it. I had a conservative lift, but the difference it makes on my face, profile especially, is remarkable.
