How it Works
Lip Fillers commonly employ hyaluronic acid (HA) as an active ingredient, which, precisely injected into the lips, enhances their size and volume. HA offers multiple benefits, including lip plumping and retaining moisture within, yielding a healthy and natural-looking pout.
Prominent hyaluronic acid-based fillers such as Restylane Kysse and Juvederm Ultra XC, and RHA 2 in the RHA collection of fillers utilize a hypoallergenic synthetic variant of HA, a substance naturally present in the body. These dermal fillers effectively smooth and plump the skin, leveraging HA’s exceptional moisturizing properties.
Benefits of Lip Fillers
Lip Fillers are popular dermal filler procedures known for their safety, efficiency, and efficacy. They can correct lip shape irregularities, achieving a more symmetrical and harmonious aesthetic look. Moreover, lip fillers can address volume loss associated with aging. These minimally invasive, non-surgical treatments provide immediate results, boosting self-assurance and resulting in captivating lips.

What to Expect After a Lip Filler Treatment
Following the procedure, it is common to experience swelling, sensitivity, and bruising to the lips. Typically, the swelling should diminish within 24 to 48 hours, although it may persist for up to 7 days. To mitigate inflammation, pain, and swelling, apply an ice pack for 10 minutes. It is advisable to refrain from applying lip products, including lipstick and lip balm, for 24 hours.
Furthermore, avoid touching or puckering the lips or using a straw. Caution should be exercised while brushing teeth, and it is recommended to maintain proper hydration by consuming ample amounts of water. Physical exercise should be avoided for at least 24 hours. A follow-up appointment will be scheduled by your healthcare provider approximately two weeks post-procedural to assess and monitor the progress of your lips.
