- Femininity: Fuller lips instantly add femininity and a touch of allure.
- Youthfulness: Plump lips signify youthfulness (as aging often leads to thinner, less defined lips.)
- Balance: Well-proportioned lips create balance and harmony, enhancing overall facial symmetry.

What is the Best Filler for Lips?
Wish there was a simple answer for this!
There is no “one size fits all” or “best” filler for lips, because it is customized to the patient’s lip tissue and goals.
Our current favorites are: Restylane Kysse, Restylane Refyne, Juvederm Volbella, Juvederm Vollure and Versa.
How can I make my Lip Filler last longer?
Compounding, or adding a little filler gradually over time, is the best way to make your lip filler last longer. Spacing out treatments every 2-3 months and layering the filler allows it to integrate naturally within your lip tissue, while gently and gradually enhancing volume. This technique not only creates a more natural look but also helps extend the longevity of the filler.
Additionally, staying hydrated, avoiding excessive sun exposure, and not smoking can also prolong the life of your lip filler.
5 Simple ways to prevent Lip Lines (AKA: Smoker’s Lines / Barcode Lines)
- Apply Eye Cream around Your Lips: The muscles around your lips are similar to those around your eyes. Eye creams are richer and more hydrating, perfect for the delicate, wrinkle-prone skin around the lips.
- Apply Sunscreen around Your Lips: The delicate skin around your lips is prone to sun damage, which can break down collagen and accelerate aging.
- Avoid Drinking from Straws: Drink directly from the glass. This prevents the repetitive pursing motion that can worsen lip lines over time.
- Avoid Cigarettes and Vapes: Lip lines are called “smoker’s lines” for a reason. The repetitive motion of pursing your lips deepens wrinkles, and smoking also reduces blood flow to the skin, accelerating collagen breakdown and aging.
- Get Lip Filler or a Botox Lip Flip: Lip filler not only adds hydration but also provides subtle volume that smooths out fine lines and prevents them from deepening. Botox relaxes the muscle around the lips, reducing its ability to contract fully and create lines.
Uh Oh! You’ve Got Lip Lines? Here’s What to Do!
- Microfiller Lip Line Treatment
Using a tiny needle, a microscopic drop of ultra-thin filler is precisely deposited superficially to the skin, targeting each wrinkle. This innovative technique not only fills the lines but also stimulates your body’s natural repair process, boosting collagen and elastin production. The result? Refreshed, rejuvenated lips with improved texture and elasticity.
- Laser Resurfacing
Lip lines form due to thinning skin, loss of elasticity, and repeated muscle movements. Laser resurfacing works by creating controlled micro-injuries in the skin, which trigger the body’s natural healing process. This process stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, helping to smooth out fine lines and improve skin texture. For those needing heavy-duty resurfacing, the gold standard is a CO2 laser under anesthesia – but for those who don’t want the downtime, our Clear + Brilliant Laser is much gentler and works wonders!
- Pro Tip to Prevent Cold Sores:
If you’re prone to cold sores, take acyclovir preventatively before any treatment involving needles or lasers to reduce the risk of a flare-up. Let us know, and we’ll prescribe the preventative medication for you.
Lip Filler Reversal?
If you’re unhappy with your lip filler, don’t worry! Hyaluronic acid-based fillers can be safely dissolved to restore your lips to their pre-filler appearance. This is especially helpful for addressing issues like bumps or migrated filler. Once reversed, you can safely add more filler after two weeks to achieve the look you desire.
