What is Lip Filler?
Lip fillers are a type of injectable designed to address volume loss in the lips. They help add fullness and structure to deflated and dehydrated lips, giving you fuller, plumper, and softer lips.
With aging, you will naturally lose fat and collagen, affecting your skin and lips. Lip filler typically consists of hyaluronic acid (HA) –a natural substance found in the body that attracts moisture and keeps the skin hydrated and plump. When injected into the lips, HA volumizes, softens, and hydrates the lips, enhancing the appearance of the lips without the need for surgery or significant downtime.

Juvederm Ultra XC is designed for lip augmentation and is ideal for those who want fuller lips by reshaping the contours of their lips, defining the Cupid’s bow, or correcting asymmetry issues.

WHO IS A CANDIDATE FOR LIP INJECTIONS?
Individuals looking for fuller, plumper lips are good candidates for lip filler injections. Those who desire to add more definition to the shape of their lips while achieving a natural look and feel will benefit as well.
Lip injections are a safe treatment option for all skin types and tones. Patients should also be in good general health and have reasonable expectations for the outcome.
We recommend scheduling a consultation with one of our providers to determine if lip filler injections are the right treatment choice for your needs and goals.
WHAT TO EXPECT DURING LIP FILLER TREATMENT
Most lip fillers already contain the anesthetic lidocaine to enhance your comfort during the procedure. Our providers will use a very fine needle or cannula to inject the filler into your lips or the skin above your mouth to help smooth the wrinkles around your upper lip.
Most patients find the procedure to be quick and relatively comfortable. A treatment session can last approximately 30 – 45 minutes.
