Lip filler is a type of injectable treatment designed to add volume, shape, and hydration to your lips, typically using hyaluronic acid-based formulas (like Juvéderm or Restylane). Hyaluronic acid is a sugar that naturally occurs in your skin, so it attracts moisture and keeps things soft and smooth. In the end, you're left with fuller, more defined lips that don't look overdone.
Lip filler is all about volume and refinement. These injectables give your face an overall balance and that polished, youthful vibe you've been craving. And as a nice bonus, the treatment is non-surgical and comes with little to no downtime.
Thinking about getting lip filler? Great news: most healthy adults are good candidates! However, it's best to avoid treatment if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, have active cold sores or certain skin infections near the mouth, or have known allergies to the ingredients in fillers.
At your consultation, we'll chat about your aesthetic goals and evaluate your facial anatomy to make sure lip filler is a good match. We'll also discuss the different filler types so you can choose what works best for you.
Before your appointment:
One of our expert injectors will start by applying a topical numbing cream that minimizes any potential discomfort. Once you're numb and comfy, they'll use a fine needle to inject the filler strategically. The entire process usually takes about 15-30 minutes. You'll see instant results, although there might be some mild swelling or bruising right afterward.
Most people notice visible results right after the treatment, with swelling settling down within a few days. Final results typically appear after a week or two.
Aftercare Tips:
Lip filler results can last from six to twelve months, depending on your body and the filler used. We'll help you maintain your look with touch-ups as needed.
