I'm getting my first fill Monday. What can I expect the procedure to be like and after?

Nothing for me. You will need more than one fill to make a big difference. Most doctors on the first fill gradually put fluid in for the first time. You are still healing for quite a while and they go slow until you get to 2 or 3 fills from now.

I had my first fill 2 weeks ago. My doctor explained everything as he did it and that was very helpful. It is an odd experience, but it did not hurt. You will do great. It only takes a few minutes and then you are good to go until the next time. Good luck.

Thank you! Do they numb the area before the poke you?

I'm never given anything for pain before a fill. To be truthful they are not pain full.

How long do you have to wait between fills?

My doctor allows his patients every week till they feel green but I don't go every week
