We don’t chase trends. We focus on helping you feel like your best self—with lips that fit your features beautifully.
Lip filler is a minimally invasive cosmetic treatment that uses injectable dermal fillers—typically made of hyaluronic acid—to add volume and improve the shape of the lips. HA is a naturally occurring substance in the body that helps the skin retain moisture and elasticity.
These gel-like substances are carefully injected into areas such as the upper lip, lower lip, vermilion border, cupid’s bow, or mouth corners, depending on your unique anatomy and desired results.
Most commonly used fillers are FDA-approved and reversible, offering both safety and flexibility.
Your non-surgical lip augmentation begins with a brief consultation where we’ll review your lip anatomy, discuss your goals, and recommend a filler product that fits your desired look—whether that’s soft and subtle or fuller and more defined.
A topical anesthetic or local anesthetic is applied to minimize discomfort. Then, your injector will carefully place the filler using small, controlled injections to achieve balanced, natural-looking lip enhancement. The entire procedure takes about 20 to 30 minutes. You’ll see immediate improvement, though initial swelling may slightly obscure your final results for the first few days.
Lip filler is a versatile treatment that can address a range of cosmetic concerns without the need for lip implants:

Whether you're after something soft and subtle or a bit more definition, hyaluronic acid fillers work well for a variety of lip shapes and skin types. During your consultation, we’ll go over your health history, previous treatments, and overall goals to make sure this approach makes sense for you.
After your treatment, it’s common to experience swelling and bruising at the injection site. This usually peaks within 24–48 hours and fades over the next several days. Applying cold compresses and avoiding alcohol or vigorous activity can help reduce swelling.
To protect your results:
Most patients return to normal activities the same day.
You’ll see immediate volume after the injection, but final results take a few days to settle as swelling resolves. Depending on the chosen filler, results typically last 6 to 12 months, with some products lasting longer.
For optimal results, we recommend follow-up appointments or touch-ups every 6–9 months to maintain your appearance.
