Lip Filler

Whether you’re looking for a subtle enhancement or a more dramatic transformation, Dr. Farhang is here to create results that are customized to your unique aesthetic goals.

What Is Lip Filler?

Lip fillers are a non-surgical cosmetic treatment designed to enhance the size, shape, and definition of your lips. Most lip fillers are made from hyaluronic acid (HA), a naturally occurring substance in the body that helps to hydrate and add volume to the skin. Popular HA-based fillers include Juvederm®, Restylane® and Belotero, which deliver soft, natural-looking results.

Benefits of Lip Filler

Lip filler treatments are versatile and can address a variety of concerns, such as:

  • Adding Volume: Enhance naturally thin lips for a fuller appearance.
  • Restoring Balance: Correct asymmetry or uneven lip shapes.
  • Defining Lip Borders: Improve the shape and definition of the cupid’s bow and lip outline.
  • Smoothing Lip Lines: Reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles around the mouth.
  • Personalized Results: Tailored to your preferences, from a subtle boost to a more noticeable enhancement.

The Lip Filler Process

1. Comprehensive Consultation:

  • During your consultation, Dr. Farhang will discuss your goals and concerns to create a customized treatment plan.
  • Together, you’ll choose the ideal filler product and decide on the amount needed to achieve your desired look.

2. Preparation:

  • The treatment area will be cleansed, and a topical numbing cream may be applied to ensure your comfort during the procedure.

3. Precise Injection:

  • Using a fine needle or cannula, Dr. Farhang will carefully inject the filler into targeted areas of your lips. Her advanced knowledge of facial anatomy ensures accurate placement for a natural and balanced result.

4. Finishing Touches:

  • Once the injections are complete, the area is gently massaged to ensure even distribution and a smooth appearance.

5. Immediate Results:

  • You’ll notice an immediate enhancement, though some swelling may occur for the first 24-48 hours. Full results typically settle within a week.

How Long Do Lip Fillers Last?

Lip filler longevity depends on the product used, your metabolism, and the amount of filler injected. Most patients enjoy their results for 6 to 12 months, after which a touch-up may be recommended to maintain the desired appearance.
