The key to beautiful lips is getting good work done by an experienced injector. The goal is a hint of augmentation – just enough to make people wonder.

What Is Lip Augmentation?

Lip augmentation with filler injections will add fullness, balance and body to your lips, and give you that softer, sexier look you desire.  Lip injections are done on awake patients.  

Typically, there is no need for pre-treatment with a numbing cream or nerve blocks.  Lip Augmentation takes approximately 10 minutes. You will first be given a small icepack to apply to your lips to cool them down. This acts to numb the nerves so that the treatment is as comfortable as possible.

After the treatment, we recommend you stay in the clinic and apply an ice pack for a further 10 minutes. This is once again to help minimize bruising and swelling. However, you should expect to have some slight swelling, which usually resolves during the first 2 days after treatment.

Most people can return to work immediately and full written aftercare instructions will be given to you. 

For 95% of patients, this swelling is minimal and only you and people who know you well will know your lips are swollen. Using ice packs and Benadryl helps to speed up the resolution of the swelling.
