In this post, we’ll address some of the most common questions about lip fillers and other injectable treatments, so you can make the best decision for yourself.
Are Lip Fillers Only for Adding Fullness?
While adding fullness is one of the most well-known benefits of lip fillers, it’s far from the only one. When expertly injected by experienced professionals like the team at Aesthetica MedSpa, lip fillers can also:
- Restore or enhance the natural shape and volume of the lips
- Create more defined lip borders
- Enhance the Cupid’s bow at the center of the upper lip
- Balance upper and lower lip proportions
- Smooth out vertical lip lines for a more hydrated and youthful appearance
For patients experiencing age-related volume loss, lip fillers can restore a more youthful, rejuvenated look—especially when combined with other treatments as part of our full-face rejuvenation approach.
What’s the Best Filler for Lip Augmentation?
At Aesthetica MedSpa, we offer a variety of lip enhancement filler options, each designed to meet different aesthetic goals. We carry some of the best products available, including JUVÉDERM® and Restylane®. The choice of filler depends on your specific needs and desired outcome. Our doctor will work with you to determine the best option for you.
All of our lip fillers contain hyaluronic acid and are pre-mixed with a local anesthetic to ensure a comfortable treatment experience.
How Long Do Lip Fillers Last?
The longevity of lip fillers can vary, with most patients seeing results last anywhere from 4 to 6 months. However, a variety of factors can influence how long your lip fillers will last, including:
- Metabolism: Your body’s ability to break down the filler can impact its longevity.
- Amount of filler: The more filler that’s injected, the longer it may last.
- Type of filler: Different fillers have different durations of effectiveness.
- Lifestyle: Habits like smoking and frequent facial expressions can accelerate the breakdown of fillers.
- Injection technique: The skill of the injector plays a significant role in how long your results will last.
Since the lips are highly mobile, you may need touch-ups more frequently to maintain your results.
Are Lip Fillers and a Lip Flip the Same Thing?
While both lip fillers and a BOTOX® lip flip aim to create a fuller upper lip, the two procedures are quite different.
- Lip Fillers: These add volume, definition, and correct asymmetries in the lips, making them fuller and more youthful.
- BOTOX® Lip Flip: This procedure involves injecting BOTOX® into the muscles just above the upper lip, resulting in a subtle elevation of the upper lip and more visible upper lip exposure.
Both treatments can be performed alone or combined for a more comprehensive lip enhancement. During your consultation, we will help you decide which option best suits your goals.
