Lip Fillers

Benefits of Lip Filler

How It Works

Our lip filler treatments utilize hyaluronic acid-based fillers. These fillers are injected into targeted areas of the lips to enhance volume and shape. They attract water molecules, providing a plumping effect that lasts several months. The procedure is minimally invasive, typically lasting about 30 minutes, with immediate visible results.

What Happens During Lip Filler Injection

One of the many advantages of hyaluronic acid lip fillers is that they require little to no downtime. Typically, before the injection, we will apply a topical or local numbing agent to alleviate any discomfort. Nerve block injections, similar to anesthetic injections received at the dentist, are also an option to numb the lips entirely.

We will also carefully mark the areas to be injected. Then, we will use very fine needles inject the filler into the lips. After injection, patients may want to use ice to ease discomfort and control swelling. However, they should take care to avoid placing any firm pressure on the treatment area. They should also avoid lipstick and other lip products immediately after the procedure. Results will be immediately noticeable, and lips will feel natural after healing..

Side Effects and Risks of Lip Fillers

When performed by an experienced injector, lip fillers are generally considered a safe procedure. However, it is not uncommon to experience some side effects after the procedure. Some common ones include:

• Bleeding from the injection sites
• Reactivation of cold sores or fever blisters
• Redness and tenderness at the site of the injection
• Swelling and bruising

More serious and rare side effects also include:

• Infection
• Injection into a blood vessel
• Lip asymmetry
• Lumps and irregularities in the lips
• Severe, prolonged swelling or bruising
• Ulceration, scarring, or stiffening of the lip
