Lip filler FAQ
Q
Are lip filler treatments painful?
A
Lip fillers are generally well tolerated by our patients. Discomfort level should be manageable if treatments are performed by experienced practitioners. If you are concerned about the discomfort, we recommend you taking Tylenol® (if not contraindicated) one hour before your appointment. We also provide topical numbing cream, and ask that patients arrive 30 minutes in advance of their treatments for numbing
Q
How long does it take to see results?
A
Results from fillers are immediate, but your lips will be swollen and bruised for a few days. Fillers absorb water and integrate with your tissue over 2-4 weeks so final results can be seen in 2-4 weeks
Q
What is the downtime?
A
With any injectable treatments, there can be some bruising, redness, or swelling on the injection sites after filler treatments. These symptoms should generally dissipate within 48 hours from the treatment. Please review our before and after care instructions carefully prior to the appointment to minimize downtime
Q
How long do lip fillers last?
A
Dermal fillers in the face typically last between 9 to 12 months, but lip fillers may last about 9 months because the area involves a lot of daily movement
Q
Are lip fillers safe?
A
Hyaluronic acid based fillers have been FDA approved since 2003 and have been broadly used with minimal side effects and complications. It’s important to note that hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance found in our skin, and it plays a key role in keeping skin hydrated and volumized
This doesn’t mean that fillers do not come with risks. Fillers require advanced technique making it important to receive the treatment from licensed, trained, and experienced practitioners. Learn more about our providers here
Q
What happens if I do not like the lip filler results?
A
Fillers are naturally absorbed and broken down in our body over time. However, for those with overfilled or misplaced fillers who want to dissolve them immediately, we can treat the area(s) of concern with an enzyme called Hylenex to help dissolve the fillers
At U Med Spa, our providers are licensed and highly experienced in lip filler injections. Consult with them fully before your treatment to make sure that you will love your results
Q
Do you provide Restylane or Juvederm fillers?
A
We provide lip filler injections with both Restylane and Juvederm. U Med Spa is recognized by Allergan and Galderma, the manufacturers of Juvederm and Restylane, as the top tier provider
U Med approach
At U Med Spa, our approach to lip injections is centered on symmetry, proportion, and personalized artistry. Every appointment begins with a detailed lip anatomy consultation where our licensed providers assess your natural lip shape and vertical height. We utilize premium hyaluronic acid fillers specifically designed for the perioral area – such as Juvéderm Volbella or Restylane Kysse – to ensure your lips remain soft, hydrated, and natural to the touch
Our goal is to enhance your natural beauty while avoiding an “overfilled” appearance. Because the lips are a delicate area, we prioritize patient comfort and precision, ensuring your lip augmentation results perfectly complement your overall facial features. Patients visit us for lip filler from Plano, Frisco, Allen, McKinney and Richardson.
