Lip Filler
Lip filler is a gel like substance that gets injected beneath the skin to plump, hydrate and smooth the appearance of lips. Lip filler is made up of Hyaluronic Acid (HA), which is a naturally occurring substance in the body. Lip filler will typically last up to 12 months and is gradually absorbed naturally by the body.
Are Lip Fillers Painful?
There may be minimal discomfort with lip filler injections. In an effort to reduce discomfort, you will have a topical anesthetic applied for at least 30 minutes prior to injections. Lip filler also contains some lidocaine, which can help to reduce discomfort during the procedure and afterwards.
Will there be any downtime?
Typically, there is no downtime following lip filler. It is advised that you avoid strenuous activity for 24 hours after the procedure and stay well hydrated.
