What are Lip Fillers?
As a type of dermal filler, lip fillers are designed to plump and shape the lips while reducing the natural creases that form around your mouth over time. These injectables consist of synthetic hyaluronic acid (HA), a natural substance found in your body. The HA helps produce more collagen, adding a firmer, plumper shape to the tissue of the lips. With lip fillers from Amore Aesthetics, you’ll be perfectly kissable in no time!

What happens during a Lip Filler procedure?
Preparation
As we prepare you for the lip fill procedure, a numbing agent will be applied to the area, taking roughly 30-minutes to activate. Once your lips are completely numb, our experienced esthetician will inform you where each injection will be placed.
Procedure
After your lips have been completely numbed, our FDA approved lip fillers are injected just beneath the surface of your skin at the edges of your lips, cupid’s bow, and corners of your mouth. During the procedure, ice may be periodically applied to help reduce swelling or bruising. Each procedure will last anywhere from thirty minutes to an hour depending on the amount of filler requested.
Aftercare
To ensure your lips properly absorb the filler, we’ll massage and ice the lips for a brief moment upon completion of the injections. We will monitor you for up to 20 minutes to ensure you don’t experience any side effects and then you’re free to go about your day.
We advise that In the first 24 hours, you avoid activities that might disturb the filler (like smoking, kissing, drinking through straws, and rubbing your face or mouth). To moderate the swelling, you may try icing the injected area for brief periods of time. Swelling usually lasts 24 to 48 hours, but may take up to a week to subside.
FAQs
You might feel some mild discomfort or soreness around the injection sites for up to 24 hours. Applying ice periodically will subdue any additional swelling or potential bruising.
Lip fillers are semi-permanent. They will last from 12 to 18 months, but your body will naturally break down the filler over time.
There is little to no downtime after a lip filler injection. You can go about your normal activities right away. If you’re looking to be camera ready for a special event, we recommend planning your lip filler injections at least two weeks in advance. This will allow for ample recovery and a guarantee you’ll be feeling your best.
