About Lip Filler
Lip filler treatments are a popular way to restore or add volume to your lips, enhancing your smile and balancing your overall facial appearance. At Teeth and Beauty, our goal is to create lips that are beautifully proportionate and natural-looking. We focus on refining the shape, contour, and size of the lips while addressing signs of aging around the mouth and lower face.
This cosmetic facial treatment is designed to help your lips and mouth area stand out subtly and gracefully, giving you the confidence boost you deserve.
Are Lip Injections Right for You?
Lip injections are a versatile solution for anyone looking to reshape or rejuvenate their lips. If you’re looking to enhance your natural features or restore lost definition, lip fillers offer a customized approach to achieving your aesthetic goals.
You may benefit from lip injections if you want to:
- Increase lip size or add subtle, natural-looking volume.
- Restore definition and shape lost over time.
- Correct asymmetry in the lips.
- Smooth vertical lines above the lips (commonly called “lipstick lines” or “smoker’s lines”).
At Teeth and Beauty, we take the time to assess your unique needs, ensuring that lip fillers are the right choice for your goals. Our expert team creates tailored plans that enhance your lips while complementing other facial treatments for a harmonious appearance.
Preparing for Your Lip Filler Treatment
When administered by a professional injector, lip filler procedures are safe and typically straightforward. To ensure the best possible outcome, we recommend preparing in advance:
- Avoid Certain Medications: Refrain from using nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (like ibuprofen, aspirin, or naproxen), as these can increase the risk of bruising.
- Limit Supplements: Some supplements, such as fish oil, vitamin E, or St. John’s Wort, may have similar effects to the medications above. Consult with our team about temporarily pausing these before treatment.
- Don’t Smoke: Nicotine can constrict blood vessels and may increase the likelihood of bruising.
- Hydrate Well: Proper hydration ensures your skin is in optimal condition, improving the overall success of your procedure.
Your provider may offer additional advice based on your medical history. By following these guidelines, you can maximize comfort and reduce the chance of complications.
What to Expect During Treatment
Lip filler treatments typically take 30 minutes to one hour, depending on your specific needs. Here’s what you can expect:
- Comfort is a Priority: We use topical numbing cream, ice packs, and injectable numbing agents to ensure your treatment is as painless as possible.
- Customized Results: Most patients require just one syringe of Juvederm to achieve their desired results, but this may vary based on the starting condition of your lips.
This minimally invasive facial treatment is designed to provide noticeable but natural enhancements, giving you fuller, more defined lips.
After Your Lip Injections
After your lip filler treatment, you’ll be able to resume your daily activities right away. However, some temporary side effects, like swelling and bruising, are common. These effects typically subside within a week. Swelling may make results appear less refined initially, so we encourage patients to wait at least one week before assessing the final outcome.
If excessive swelling occurs or you’re unsatisfied with the results, Juvederm can be easily dissolved for adjustments. Once the swelling subsides, you’ll see beautifully subtle fullness that enhances your facial appearance.
Lip fillers typically last six months or longer, and with regular maintenance appointments at Teeth and Beauty, you can enjoy your new look indefinitely.
