Lip fillers are a popular cosmetic procedure for restoring or adding volume to lips. While lip filler doesn’t stop the ageing process, they may help delay the need for a more invasive lip augmentation procedure. But, what is lip filler exactly? What are the benefits? Find out the answers in our informative article below, as well as how to make lip fillers last longer.

What is lip filler?

Lip filler is a type of cosmetic injectable that’s used to enhance the shape, appearance and volume of lips. It’s typically made from hyaluronic acid (HA), which is a naturally occurring substance in the body that hydrates and plumps the skin. Lip filler can be used to add volume to thin lips, improve the symmetrical appearance of lips and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles around the mouth. It can also be used to improve the shape and contour of the lips, helping to boost a person’s confidence in their own appearance.

During the procedure, the filler is injected into the lips using a small needle (typically 27G) and the injection sites are massaged to ensure the filler is distributed evenly. The treatment usually takes just a few minutes to complete and the results can last for several months depending on the type of filler used and the patient’s metabolism.
