Lip fillers are injectable dermal fillers, most commonly made from hyaluronic acid, that add volume, shape, and definition to the lips. They can enhance naturally thin lips, restore lost volume due to aging, and smooth lines around the mouth for a youthful, balanced look.
Lip fillers typically last 6–12 months, depending on the product used (like Juvederm, Restylane, or Revanesse), your metabolism, and lifestyle. Regular touch-ups help maintain consistent, natural results.
Most lip fillers contain lidocaine, a numbing agent, to make treatment comfortable. The injections may feel like a quick pinch or pressure, and numbing cream or ice can also be applied. Mild swelling or tenderness afterward is normal.
Results from lip fillers are immediate. You’ll see added volume and shape right away, though mild swelling and bruising may occur. Final results are typically visible within 1–2 weeks once healing is complete.
Yes, lip fillers are FDA-approved and safe when administered by a licensed injector. Common side effects include swelling, bruising, or redness that usually resolve within a few days. Serious complications are rare when treatment is done by a trained professional.
Lip fillers are priced per syringe, with costs depending on the product used and the desired results. Most patients need 1 syringe for subtle enhancement, though some may choose 2 syringes for fuller lips. A consultation provides personalized pricing.
Before lip fillers, avoid alcohol, aspirin, ibuprofen, and fish oil for 24–48 hours to reduce bruising. After treatment, avoid strenuous exercise, heat, and touching the lips for at least 24 hours. Follow your injector’s aftercare instructions for the best results.
Lip fillers use hyaluronic acid injections to add volume and shape to the lips. A lip flip uses Botox or Dysport to relax the upper lip muscle, subtly “flipping” the lip upward for a fuller appearance without adding volume.
Good candidates are healthy adults who want to enhance lip volume, shape, or symmetry. Patients should not be pregnant, breastfeeding, or have certain allergies. A consultation ensures lip fillers are safe and aligned with your cosmetic goals.
When performed by an experienced injector, lip fillers create soft, natural-looking results that enhance your features without looking overdone. The goal is balanced, proportionate lips that suit your face shape.
