Volume & Fullness
Adding subtle-to-moderate volume to thin or aging lips. We build volume in proportion to your facial anatomy.
Border Definition
Sharpening the vermilion border and cupid's bow for enhanced definition without adding excessive volume.
Symmetry Correction
Balancing asymmetries between upper and lower lip, or left and right sides, for a more harmonious appearance.
Proportional Beauty.
Every patient's anatomy is unique. Our board-certified dermatologists assess your natural proportions, lip border definition, and facial balance to create a customized enhancement plan that enhances your individual features rather than conforming to a single standard.
The Modern Lip. We utilize a combination of micro-droplet technique and linear threading to build volume gradually and precisely. This layered approach prevents the overfilled look and instead creates soft, natural volume with full movement. We select the optimal hyaluronic acid filler for each patient based on their anatomy and goals.
Frequently Asked.
How long does lip filler last?
Lip filler typically lasts 6 to 12 months. The lips are a highly mobile area, so filler metabolizes faster here than in other zones.
Will lip filler look natural?
When performed by a board-certified dermatologist using proper technique, yes. Our approach prioritizes proportion and subtlety.
How much filler will I need?
Most patients start with 0.5 to 1 syringe. We can always add more at a follow-up, but we cannot take away. We err on the side of natural.
What is the downtime?
Expect swelling for 24-48 hours and possible minor bruising. Ice and arnica help minimize these effects.
