Nonsurgical lip fillers are a miracle of aesthetic science that can provide a plump look so your lips feel fresh and youthful.
Lip fillers are an exciting, advanced cosmetic treatment to temporarily plump the lips. They are even reversible if you don’t like your results after treatment. Many of the best lip fillers are Hyaluronic Acid (HA) based, as it is biodegradable and its effect is reversible.
The Effect of Lip Injection Lasts For…
It’s your metabolism that mostly defines how long the results of your lip filler treatment will last. In addition, the quality and quantity of the product that your cosmetic doctor uses can affect the longevity. Usually, you can have augmented lips for about six months before another injection treatment is needed.
The Quantity That Is Sufficient…
You can start with just one syringe, which should be distributed appropriately to give you a natural lifting effect. This lunchtime procedure often gets started with half a syringe at a time. You can have its leftover dose one or two weeks later.
What For The Naturally Fuller Lips…
For a plumper pout, temporary fillers can be incredible. Hyaluronic Acid fillers contain a type of sugar, and this natural substance can hold up to 1,000 times its own weight in water. The HA will be naturally and safely absorbed slowly by your body over time.
It Feels a Little Prick…
Being a nonsurgical beauty treatment, you feel no pain after a filler injection. During treatment, the sensation is a brief prick when the tony needle is inserted. You may feel a slight pressure and small lumps where it is injected. Your provider can apply a topical anesthetic (numbing cream) around the target area beforehand. But, all these effects fade away within a day or two.
The Risk Involved…
Lip enhancement with injectables is very safe with a skilled and experienced injector. Steer clear of bad-looking results or worse by choosing a highly qualified, certified and experienced professional for your injections. It’s a good idea to ask for before and after lip filler images of past patients so you can see the results a provider was able to achieve.
What To Do Before Getting Fillers…
First off, discuss your lip filler options with several providers so you have an idea of which choice might be best for you. It’s always good if you avoid blood thinners, such as painkillers like ibuprofen, aspirin, along with alcohol, for 10 days before the procedure. These can cause bruising and bleeding. If you have a history of cold sores, start taking preventive measures two days prior to avoid flare-ups after treatment.
After Treatment Care…
I recommend taking it easy and avoiding the gym or other serious exercise for the first 24 hours after treatment. Apart from that, also don’t plan to get a facial massage or facial right after, since those could increase swelling.
The Cost You Pay For Fillers…
The cost of lip injections can differ for many reasons. Generally, plan on between $500 to $2000 for a treatment. The cost will be corresponding to its type, amount, the region where you live in and the cosmetic physician you see.
