Full, voluminous, and luscious lips are hallmarks of beauty and attraction. Whether you want to enhance the natural contours and volume of your lips or reverse the effects of aging, you can achieve stunning results with lip augmentation. If you’re not prepared for a permanent surgical enhancement, such as a lip lift, you can enhance your lips’ volume and contours with a few strategic lip filler injections. Please schedule a consultation with Dr. Lisiecki to explore your options.
About Lip Augmentation
What is lip augmentation?
Lip augmentation is a non-surgical procedure that involves injecting dermal fillers into the lips to enhance their shape and volume. Dermal fillers are cosmetic injections that add volume underneath facial tissues. When injected into the lips, dermal fillers instantly add hyaluronic acid molecules underneath the soft tissues, making your lips look fuller, more voluminous, and more supple. The results appear instantly and last for several months.
The benefits of lip augmentation with fillers:
- Minimally invasive treatment — no incisions or scarring
- Safe and typically well-tolerated
- Enhances the volume, shape, and contours of the lips
- Instant onset of natural results
- Minimal post-treatment downtime
Your personalized lip augmentation treatment
Non-surgical lip augmentation is performed after a thorough evaluation and consultation. The cosmetic provider will examine your lips and discuss your goals to select the ideal dermal fillers for you. After cleansing your lips, the chosen filler is carefully injected in and around your lips using ultrafine needles. There’s minimal discomfort with careful injections and the use of numbing medications. The procedure concludes within 15 to 30 minutes.
Side effects and recovery after lip augmentation
Lip augmentation is an extremely safe procedure with generally mild post-treatment side effects, such as redness, swelling, tenderness, and bruising around the treatment areas. The side effects dissipate within a few days to a week. You can resume your daily activities and work immediately, but please avoid strenuous workouts and physical activities for a day or two.
The onset and longevity of lip augmentation results
The results of your lip fillers will appear instantly. Your lips will instantly appear fuller and more voluminous, but the results will finalize once the side effects dissipate completely. The results last for 6 to 15 months, depending on the chosen filler and how quickly your body metabolizes the hyaluronic acid molecules.
