How do lip fillers work?

Lip fillers are a non-surgical cosmetic procedure that helps individuals achieve fuller, plumper lips. Essentially, this treatment adds volume to the lips through an injection of hyaluronic acid-based compound which is a natural sugar protein that hydrates the skin by retaining water and adding structural support to the tissues.

Since the injectables comprise natural components found in the body, these treatments are also a solution for reducing pigmentation, acne scars, or smoke lines, enhancing the appearance of the lips.

What to expect during a lip filler procedure?

During this treatment, a hyaluronic acid-based filler is injected at different points into the lips through an ultra-thin needle. Dr. Grover uses hyaluronic acid as it is a natural material found in the dermis of our skin. During your appointment, your dermatologist will cleanse the area and apply a topical, mildly numbing cream so that the procedure is as comfortable as possible. Next, the filler is directly injected into the lips, in the perimeter of the mouth, called the vermilion borders, or directly onto the lip area. As the hyaluronic acid is deposited in the skin, it hydrates the underneath layers of the skin, giving a plump appearance of the lips on the outside.

Are lip fillers safe?

Like all medical procedures, this cosmetic treatment also carries certain degrees of risks and the chances of post-treatment complications. However, the expertise and training of a double board-certified dermatologist you will get at Beauty Scripts deems it a much safer procedure. Dr. Grover is trained with extensive knowledge and practice of craft that we make every procedure a pleasant experience for our clients. Due to our thorough practice and successful track record, we can proudly say that most of our cosmetic procedures are quick and painless with successful outcomes. Therefore, you can rely on our certified cosmetic surgeon to always use the highest-quality products and tools to provide you with desired results.

Are there any side effects to lip fillers?

Since this is an injectable procedure, minor bleeding during the insertion is observed. Apart from this, common side effects of a lip filler treatment include slight swelling, redness, or sensitivity on the areas where the needle was inserted. However, these discomforts fade away within a few days.

What to avoid before or after a lip filler procedure?

Our dermatologist will guide you through the do’s and don’ts to follow as you prepare for your first lip filler. Ideally, you will be recommended to skip taking any painkillers or additional supplements that may aggravate bleeding or bruising. It is important that you maintain complete transparency with your physician about your prescription medication to avoid any post-treatment complications. Lastly, it is also suggested to avoid heavy alcohol consumption or smoking 24 hours before your appointment.

Post the lip filler treatment, your Beauty Scripts’ team will explain the after-care thoroughly. As a general rule of thumb, however, consume plenty of healthy liquids, especially water to keep yourself hydrated while avoiding alcohol for a couple of days. You may also be recommended to skip strenuous physical activity so that the skin tissue may heal quickly.

How long do the results of lip fillers last?

Hyaluronic acid lip filler gel lasts at least 6 months to 9 months depending on the cosmetic formulation brand. With good aftercare, however, lip filler treatment can last as long as a whole year. Regardless, you can always visit us for a touch-up on your dermal fillers to enjoy longer-lasting results.
