Some people are born with naturally full lips while others are not, and in many cases, lip volume is lost as we age. While aging is unavoidable, you can treat thin lips with a minor, in-office procedure. The range of options may seem overwhelming – and at first glance, all lip fillers may appear the same – but Derma-Tech Medical Spa can help you tailor the perfect treatment for your aesthetic goals.

What Are My Treatment Options?

Dermal fillers, the most popular and straightforward treatment for lip augmentation, are injectables that add instant volume and contour to the lips on a temporary basis. Derma-Tech Medical Spa offers several hyaluronic-acid (HA) fillers to address your needs, and a consultation with our specialists will help you determine the best route to take. Hyaluronic-acids are substances naturally found in your body, which get replicated in a test tube and combined with Lidocaine.

Juvederm Family of Dermal Fillers

All Juvederm Dermal Fillers are FDA-approved and are designed to replace lost volume and minimize fine lines. Juvederm XC, Juvederm Volbella XC and Juvederm Vollure XC are excellent choices for lip augmentation, making it possible to give your lips more volume while avoiding the dreaded “trout pout”.

Results are usually visible instantly with final results apparent within 1-2 weeks after your injections when the swelling has decreased. Follow-up injections are recommended to maintain appearance.

On average, patients experience natural-looking plumpness for about 9-12 months. The longevity of your results will be dependent on your body’s metabolism – some patients have reported results up to one year. Patients seeking subtly plump lips will find this treatment just right for them.

Restylane

Restylane® Silk is a transparent gel designed to imitate your body’s naturally produced hyaluronic acid, adding fullness and definition to your lips. This FDA-approved dermal filler is non-animal sourced and uses a natural fermentation process, which drastically decreases the risk of an allergic reaction.

Optimal results can be experienced a few days after injection. Patients have reported results lasting anywhere from 9-12 months. Maintaining good overall health will improve the results and longevity. Patients over the age of 21 who want to achieve a plumper pout are ideal candidates.

Lip augmentation at Derma-Tech is a simple procedure – in most cases, topical anesthesia isn’t even necessary. The treatment can be completed on an hour lunch break.

When choosing a lip filler, it’s important to understand all your options.

I had Juvederm Lip Fillers injected by the owner of Derma Tech and I gotta say, she did AMAZING! I have never felt more confident in my life WITHOUT wearing lipstick. The staff is super friendly and I sincerely promise you that you won’t regret it.
