Best Lip Filler near me in Castro Valley, San Francisco

Fillers are not permanent, and there are several factors involved in determining how long they will keep your lips plumped for. However, you should expect your lip fillers to last between 6 and 18 months. Your practitioner will be able to give you a more accurate timeframe based on the injectable they use and your skin type.

Lip fillers are injectable treatments using hyaluronic acid gel to add volume, shape, and definition to the lips. They can enhance the size of the lips, improve symmetry, define the cupid's bow, or add structure to the lip border: with results that are natural-looking when performed by a skilled injector.

A topical numbing cream is applied before treatment and most hyaluronic acid fillers contain lignocaine (a local anaesthetic) to reduce discomfort during injection. Most patients experience minimal pain. Mild swelling and bruising are common for a few days after treatment.

Do your research: your practitioner should be on a register that proves they meet particular training standards. Only ever book with experienced, highly qualified, fully insured practitioner, and don’t be shy about asking them about their insurance, qualifications and experience, nor what product they’re using, where it’s manufactured, and the potential side effects. It’s your right, and will help you make an informed decision on whether to have the procedure with them or not.

Lip fillers typically last 6–12 months before gradually breaking down and being absorbed by the body. Top-up treatments every 6–9 months maintain the result. Hyaluronic acid fillers can also be dissolved at any time if desired.
