What are Lip Fillers?

Many of our Lip Filler patients choose to receive the procedure simply because they feel they have small, thin, or poorly defined lips and would prefer a more voluminous pout.

Lip Fillers, also known as non-surgical lip enhancement, is a facial contouring procedure that uses dermal fillers to enhance the size, shape, and volume of thin lips.

Most lip injections are composed of hyaluronic acid, a polysaccharide that is abundant in the human body, particularly in the skin. Specially formulated for optimal softness and flexibility, our injection specialists apply top-quality dermal fillers to increase plumpness and volume. Various types exist with unique qualities. Some are formulated for subtle plumping, while others offer more significant volume enhancement, providing patients with a tailored approach to achieve their desired lip aesthetic. Understanding these nuances allows individuals to make informed choices about the specific filler type that aligns with their preferences and goals.

What are the benefits of Lip Fillers?

Lip Fillers are a low-risk, convenient solution for patients who desire fuller lips without surgery.

Performed while you are awake, the procedure takes less than an hour and immediately improves the lips’ appearance. Most patients who try Lip Fillers report more satisfaction with their appearance and a boost of confidence.

While lip lift surgery has grown in popularity over the last decade, lip injections are preferred by patients who do not want to commit to the cost, downtime, scarring, or permanency of surgery. Lip Fillers allow you to make adjustments to your lips over time, adding more or less volume as your facial structure and preferences change in the future.

Am I a candidate for Lip Fillers?

There are several reasons a patient will consider lip injections.

Some have lips that have thinned with age, while others were born with thin lips. Lip Fillers are also suitable for people who have asymmetry or a disproportionate volume in the upper vs. lower lip. Those who are candidates for Lip Fillers in Boston should keep the following in mind:

  • Realistic Expectations: Understand that achieving natural results takes time.
  • Gradual Transformation: Embrace the gradual nature of the process for a subtle, natural appearance.
  • Overfilling Concerns: Trust skilled professionals to avoid overfilling and ensure a balanced look.
  • Health Check: Ensure good mental and physical health, with non-smoking preferable for optimal healing.
  • Personalized Consultation: Schedule a consultation to assess your needs and tailor the approach to your features.
  • Process Understanding: Learn about the lip filler process, including potential side effects and recovery.
  • Open Communication: Discuss concerns and preferences with your practitioner during the consultation.
  • Provider Expertise: Choose an experienced practitioner to minimize risks and achieve desired outcomes.
  • Follow-up Options: Learn about follow-up options for adjustments or touch-ups.

Our aesthetic specialists administer a modest amount of filler each time to ensure the lips do not appear unnatural. It is easy to overdo it on Lip Fillers, and the results can be disastrous if an injector attempts to apply too much Lip Filler at once.

Your Lip Filler Procedure

Many patients choose to move forward with the procedure the same day as their consultation, although there is no pressure to do so.

Clareo injectors perform lip injections in the office with extreme care and precision. During your treatment with Lip Fillers, Boston aesthetic specialists at Clareo Plastic Surgery will inject the filler into the appropriate anatomic areas of the lips using a gentle touch. Upon request, they may apply ice or topical anesthetic before beginning. Some Lip Fillers contain a small dose of numbing agents to make the injection process more comfortable. The procedure usually takes 15 to 30 minutes.

Lip Fillers Recovery

What to expect in the days after lip enhancement

Lip Fillers have little to no downtime. Due to the initial swelling, most patients choose to lie low for the rest of the day, although there is nothing to stop you from returning to work or light social activities if you are not concerned about the swelling.

Most inflammation resolves in 24 to 72 hours. Ice application can eliminate swelling sooner, although take precautions not to apply pressure to the lips for the first 24 hours.

Bruising is common around the delicate lip area. Some Lip Filler patients do not bruise at all. Note that bruising does not mean your provider used the improper technique. Rather, it typically occurs due to individual differences in blood vessel anatomy.

Lip Fillers Results

Immediately after receiving Lip Fillers, patients will see added volume. However, it can take up to two weeks to see the final results.

As the swelling goes down, the lips settle into their final shape. Lip injections last anywhere from 3 to 12 months, depending on the type of filler and how fast your body metabolizes the ingredients.

As the filler dissolves, lips will lose volume and eventually return to their original appearance. Many patients come in for a touch-up as soon as they notice the product wearing off to retain the plump, defined appearance they have fallen in love with.
