Permalip - Top Lip Only - 5mm - Beverly Hills, CA - My lips have always been an insecurity of mine. Mainly my top lip as it is noticeably smaller than my bottom lip. I tried Juvederm out back in 12/29/15, and loved my results but they only lasted 4-5 months, and I had paid $485. So getting Permalip just seemed like a better solution for me, money and convenience wise. Plus it can last a life time. Making the PROS of Permalip out number the CONS. That's when I decided to start my research and look into getting a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon. I did a lot of research on Yelp, Real Self, Facebook reviews, and qualifications before choosing Dr Katzen in Beverly Hills, and after having my consultation with him on 1/04/17, I was confident enough to book an appt with him for the procedure on 1/20/17. We both agreed that only getting Permalip on my top lip was the proper choice. It'd make my lips proportioned or my top lip only slightly bigger than my bottom, and that was okay with me. Dr Katzen was very warm, and knowledgeable and made sure to answer any questions that I had. He even had a phone call with me a week prior to my procedure date to get any last questions/concerns out of the way, and to confirm what size I wanted to go with. I also was able to voice my concerns about my fear of having "sausage lips" or them looking too fake. He quieted my insecurities with knowledgeable answers and made me feel comfortable with following through with the procedure. Well, 1/20/17 (today) approached quickly and of course I was very nervous once arriving at the doctor's office. He prescribed me Valium and I was able to get my prescription filled down stairs in the same building. Got my prescription within 10 mins, and went back upstairs. Had my chance to ask anymore questions before signing the documents and then took my Valium. I was taken into the back room, where topical numbing cream was applied to my lips. Waited about 20 mins, and then numbing injections were made into the corners of my top lip. Followed by my incisions being made into the corners of my mouth. Once the tunneling incision began, I couldn't feel a thing until he got closer to the center of my lips, where he then added a couple more numbing injections just to make sure I wouldn't feel anything. Honestly that was the most painful part out of all of this. The numbing injections hurt! Lol. But after that, I couldn't feel a thing. The tunneling through my upper lip continued and before you know it, my implant was in. Dr Katzen did a stitch on each side of the corner of my mouth, and ensured me that the implant was the perfect size for my lip. (We went with a 5mm in medium length for those wondering!)Over all my experience during the procedure wasn't too bad! My nerves and adrenaline definitely had me shaking, but it was practically painless except for those numbing shots. But other than that I only felt some mild tugging and pressure. And Dr Katzen made sure to comfort me as much as he could. He could tell I was nervous, and made some small talk with me, to distract me and keep me at ease. Asked where my favorite place was to vacation, if I snowboard, stuff like that. So I really appreciate how warm and friendly he was, and he had excellent bed side manner! He also prescribed me some antibiotics to prevent infection, and I was able to get those down stairs. And immediately scheduled a follow up appt for 1/23/17, and he told me I could call him at any time if I had any worries or concerns. So I thought that was very cool and generous of him. I am now almost 2 hours post procedure, laying in bed. (Elevated of course) and my lip is swollen and starting to throb! Thank god I have some Percocet to help with the pain, and I'm icing 20 mins on and 20 mins off. I also am taking Arnicare tablets and Bromelain which should help with bruising/swelling as well, so wish me luck! Will keep updating as the days go on.

This is an extremely personal review for me but I want to be able to help others in my position. Dr Katzen basically gave me my face back and I’m eternally thankful. So, when you’re young, dumb, insecure and have discretionary cash to spend what do you do? You go to Mexico to get permanent PMMA filler in a face that didn’t need it. Well, you do if you’re me.  Then you spend years regretting it and figuring out a way to get it removed. You beat yourself up. You drown in shame. You realize you look crazy and overdone and you start to hide. Before you know it, you’ve lost YEARS of your youth. Then you roll up your sleeves and say ENOUGH. After trying to dissolve the filler and even using ultherapy and lasers, I realized the only way to get this product removed would be surgically. I visited a few well-known doctors who all wanted to rip my face open, peel my skin back and leave me scarred. Enter Dr Katzen, who was kind, compassionate and professional. The first thing he said to me was, "well, if this was MY FACE here’s what I’d prefer..." and I was sold. As scared as I was, the procedure itself was relatively easy. I was swollen for two weeks, eyes shut for a day or so, but after the stitches came off everything started to settle nicely. Wearing a mask and sunglasses everywhere helped. Now, I cant wait until this pandemic - panini, Panasonic, prime rib - whatever you want to call it, is over so that I can show my face in public again. If you’re going through what I did and need advice or more information, please don’t hesitate to message me and please do yourself a favor and go see dr Katzen. Take care!

28 Year Old Male PermaLip (5mm) in Los Angeles - I've never had lip fillers before for two reasons...1. As a guy I was always afraid of having a "done look", it's not attractive on women but even less so on men in my opinion.2. I couldn't justify the expense and discomfort of having to get fillers a few times a year.When I heard about PermaLip implants I was intrigued and did my due diligence, reading and watching everything I could...

Results are as good as some of the most high priced specialists in the city - Although this review is for Botox i need to give you a rundown on why i choose Dr Katzen I have always had an incredible experience with Dr Katzen. I have had a tummy tuck, breast lift, BBL plus both an arm lift and a thigh lift since 2017- and I’m not a massive weight loss patient. He's just that good. He Probably has more experience than anyone else in Los Angeles with these lift procedures This past summer wearing shorts for the first time in 20 years was truly life changing. Freeing. And tank tops without a “light sweater” on top to hide my arms when it’s 100 degrees outside- priceless. I wish i would have seen him sooner- like in my 20s- alas he wasn’t around yet :) . . So kind and patient and talented. Why i never turned to him for Botox and filler is a mystery. In November i got Botox from the very knowledgeable Talia in his office who is good at everything including post surgical care . Her results are as good as some of the most high priced specialists in the city. I’m also ready for my 2nd Mobius 8 session- great results. . He numbs us twice which really is necessary. He will always do what is necessary to keep you looking good and getting there as pain free as possible. . Great Dr. Great office.

am i a juvéderm candidate?

Ideal candidates for Juvéderm treatments are adults who have lines and wrinkles throughout their face that they would like addressed. This injectable can also be used for patients who have naturally thin or age-related volume loss in the lips. Juvéderm dermal filler treatments at our Beverly Hills, CA office are ideal if you would like to rejuvenate your appearance without the expense and recovery of cosmetic surgery (including eyelid lifts, brow lifts, facelifts, or lip implants).

how does juvéderm work?

Juvéderm injections usually only take about 15 – 30 minutes to complete, depending on which areas are being corrected. To begin, your face will be cleaned and injection spots will be selected. To reduce your discomfort during the process, Juvéderm dermal fillers contain a local anesthetic. After your treatment, you will be allowed to return to your daily routine, but strenuous activity, including exercise, should be avoided for at least 24 hours. You must be careful to not touch your face after your treatment to avoid massaging the filler into unwanted areas.

About Us

how long is recovery after a juvéderm treatment?

Patients typically see a noticeable improvement immediately after their Juvéderm session along with some mild swelling or bruising in the treated areas for approximately 7 – 10 days. The results of Juvéderm dermal fillers can withstand up to one year; in fact, some patients find that their improvements last even longer after multiple years of treatments. Talk to Dr. Katzen about the right time to book a touch-up or full session with J. Timothy Katzen, M.D. in Beverly Hills, CA to maintain your results.

enhance and rejuvenate

To achieve a more youthful and refreshed facial appearance, schedule a consultation for Juvéderm treatments at our office in Beverly Hills, CA. Each of the unique Juvéderm formulas is designed to address and improve the presence of the most common signs of aging. Plastic surgeon Dr. Timothy Katzen can create a customized treatment plan to suit your cosmetic needs and goals.

How much does JUVÉDERM cost?

Costs for a Juvéderm injection will vary based on how much filler is necessary for the treatment area. Before your Juvéderm treatment, a customized injection plan will be created to fit your goals. Once this is done, your injector can discuss cost estimates and payment options.

Are JUVÉDERM injections painful?

While many patients don't think it's needed, a local anesthetic can be massaged into the treatment area before injection if you're worried about discomfort. Following the injection, you may experience mild to moderate bruising and swelling that will usually reduce over the next week depending on the treatment area. Please get in touch with our office if you experience any severe pain or abnormal side effects following your injection.

What is the difference between a wrinkle filler and a relaxer?

Injectable fillers and relaxers correct facial wrinkles but with different approaches. Injectable wrinkle relaxers, like BOTOX, work to treat dynamic wrinkles created by repetitive muscle contractions. An injectable wrinkle filler, like Juvéderm, corrects static wrinkles by increasing volume. Juvéderm is designed to correct mild to moderate wrinkles or to add volume to your lips and cheeks.
