Lip fillers are a specific kind of dermal filler made for the delicate tissue around your mouth. Most of these injectable fillers use hyaluronic acid, a molecule your skin and body already produce. It’s effective because hyaluronic acid, found naturally in the skin, holds a massive amount of water, allowing these fillers to provide deep hydration alongside that fuller appearance. At our clinic, we use FDA-approved options like Juvederm Ultra XC because it’s smooth, flexible, and looks completely natural.

There’s a lot to love about a professional lip filler treatment. It's about more than the mirror; it’s about the way you feel walking into a room. Here’s what you can expect from your lip filler:
Most patients in good health are great candidates for a lip filler treatment. We look for patients with realistic expectations who want to enhance their natural lips. Some patients have noticed volume loss in their lips lately due to the aging process, while other patients have always had thinner lips. We build a lip filler treatment plan that works for either case. During your lip filler consultation, we’ll check your medical history to make sure a filler treatment is the safest path forward for your lips.
We use an artistic eye to make sure your lip filler results look intentional and balanced. We specifically target these lip concerns:
As we get older, the aging process means our skin loses its ability to produce as much collagen. We use hyaluronic acid filler to restore lost volume in the lips, creating fuller lips that look healthy.
The vermilion border is that crisp line that outlines your lips. Strengthening the vermilion border with lip filler helps prevent lipstick from bleeding and gives your lips a more defined structure.
Those vertical wrinkles around the mouth can be softened with precise dermal filler injections. The result is a much smoother complexion around the lips.
No lips are perfectly symmetrical. We use lip filler to balance out the top and bottom lips or correct a lopsided lip shape for a more harmonious look for your lips.
We’ll start things off with a private consultation to talk about the desired look for your lips. We aren’t into the one-size-fits-all "influencer" lip; we look at your specific facial anatomy and lip shape to find the right balance for your lip filler treatment. It's a good idea to avoid things like aspirin or fish oil for a few days before your lip filler visit to help keep bruising at the injection site to a minimum.
We want you to be comfortable during your lip augmentation, so we start with a high-potency topical numbing cream. A lot of our injectable fillers, like Juvederm Ultra XC, also have a local anesthetic mixed right in to help numb the lips as we go. Using a fine needle or cannula, the lip filler is strategically injected to highlight your natural contours. The whole lip filler procedure only takes about 30 minutes, and you’ll see those immediate results for your lips before you even leave the office.
You won’t have to worry about much recovery time with these lip injections. Most patients return to normal activities almost immediately after their filler treatment. It’s normal to experience mild swelling or a bit of bruising at the injection site on your lips, but that usually clears up within two weeks.
To reduce swelling in the lips, we recommend:
You’ll see a change in your lips immediately, but the "final" look for your lips really shows up after the swelling fades, usually around the two-week mark. These lip filler results typically last anywhere from six to nine months, depending on your individual metabolism. As your body naturally breaks down the hyaluronic acid filler in your lips, many of our patients return to our office for a quick lip filler top-off to keep those lips looking fresh.
The price for your lip filler treatment depends on how much filler product we need to get to your aesthetic goals for your lips. Every lip filler treatment plan is customized, so we’ll give you a full price breakdown for your lips during your consultation. We also offer financing through CareCredit to help make your lip enhancement easier on your budget.

We offer the same advanced treatments and expert care for your lips that you’d find in the city, with the convenience of a local practice right here. Our injectors have the artistic eye to make sure your lips don't look overfilled. We focus on lip filler results that look like a better version of your natural lips.

Between our topical numbing cream and the local anesthetic already in the Juvederm Ultra XC filler, most patients just feel a quick pinch in their lips rather than actual pain during the lip augmentation.
Definitely not. We specialize in subtle changes and lip filler results that look real. Our goal is to enhance the lips you have, not change who you are.
Yes. A lot of patients combine their lip filler with a "lip flip" using botulinum toxin to help the upper lip roll slightly upward for a fuller appearance without adding too much volume to the lips
Once we factor in the numbing cream time and the lip filler consultation, you’re usually in and out of the office in about 45 to 60 minutes.
Results typically last six to nine months. Your individual metabolism determines how fast the body breaks down the hyaluronic acid in the lips.
Yes, Juvederm Ultra XC is an FDA-approved filler that has been used by many patients for safe lip augmentation. We trust Juvederm Ultra XC because it delivers consistent, natural-looking results for the lips.
