Benefits of
Lip Fillers
- Enhanced Volume: Achieve fuller, plumper lips that look youthful and
vibrant.
- Improved Shape: Correct asymmetry or add definition to lip borders, such
as the Cupid's bow.
- Hydration Boost: HA fillers attract water, keeping lips hydrated and
smooth.
- Reversibility: If desired results aren’t achieved, fillers can be
dissolved with hyaluronidase.
- Minimal Downtime: A quick procedure with little recovery time, making it
ideal for busy schedules.
The
Procedure
Consultation
The journey begins with a consultation with a qualified practitioner. This
step is crucial to discuss goals, assess the lip structure, and determine the best type and
amount of filler.
Preparation
The lips are cleaned, and a numbing cream or local anesthetic is applied to
minimize discomfort.
Injection
Using a fine needle, the filler is carefully injected into specific areas of
the lips to achieve the desired look. The procedure typically takes 15–30 minutes.
Shaping
The practitioner may massage the lips to distribute the filler evenly and
ensure a natural appearance.
