Lip Filler FAQs

Lip fillers have become a popular cosmetic treatment, offering a simple and effective way to enhance your natural beauty. With our special promotion of $100 off Restylane Kysse for the month of June, now is the perfect time to consider this treatment. Here, we answer all of your lip filler FAQs to help you make an informed decision.

What are lip fillers?

Lip fillers are injectable treatments designed to add volume, shape, and definition to the lips. The most common type of lip fillers are made from hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in the body that helps to hydrate and plump the skin.

Why choose Restylane Kysse for lip fillers?

Restylane Kysse is a hyaluronic acid-based filler specifically designed for the lips. It uses XpresHAn Technology™ to provide a natural look and feel with flexible movement, ensuring that your lips look and feel natural. Restylane Kysse also offers long-lasting results, typically up to one year.

What are the benefits of lip fillers?

  • Enhanced Volume and Shape: Lip fillers can add fullness to thin lips and improve their shape.
  • Correct Asymmetry: Fillers can help balance uneven lips, creating a more symmetrical appearance.
  • Natural-Looking Results: Modern fillers like Restylane Kysse provide subtle and natural enhancements.
  • Quick Procedure: The treatment is relatively quick, usually completed within 30 minutes.
  • Minimal Downtime: Most patients experience minimal downtime and can return to their daily activities shortly after the procedure.

How does the lip filler procedure work?

The procedure starts with a consultation where one of our expert injectors assesses your lips and discusses your aesthetic goals. During the treatment, we use fine needles to inject the filler into specific areas of the lips. A topical numbing cream is often applied to minimize discomfort. The entire process typically takes about 30 minutes.

What should I expect after getting lip fillers?

After the treatment, you may experience some initial swelling, redness, and tenderness, which usually subside within a few days. It’s important to follow any aftercare instructions provided by your practitioner to ensure the best results. Most patients can resume their normal activities immediately after the procedure.

How long do the results last?

The results of lip fillers can last up to one year, depending on the type of filler used and individual factors such as metabolism and lifestyle. Regular touch-up appointments can help maintain your desired look.

Are there any risks or side effects?

Lip fillers are generally safe when performed by a qualified practitioner. Common side effects include temporary swelling, redness, and tenderness at the injection site. Serious complications are rare but can include infection or allergic reactions. It’s crucial to choose an experienced and certified provider to minimize risks.

Can I combine lip fillers with other treatments?

Yes, lip fillers can be combined with other cosmetic treatments, such as Botox or facial fillers, to achieve comprehensive facial rejuvenation. Your practitioner can create a personalized treatment plan based on your aesthetic goals.

How do I maintain my lip fillers?

To prolong the results of your lip fillers:

  • Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water to keep your skin and lips hydrated.
  • Avoid Excessive Sun Exposure: Use SPF lip balm to protect your lips from the sun.
  • Follow Aftercare Instructions: Adhere to any guidelines provided by your practitioner.
  • Schedule Touch-Up Appointments: Regular touch-ups can help maintain your desired look.
