What are Lip Fillers?

Frequently Asked Questions

Lip Fillers are injections that are used to add volume to your lips using a type of dermal filler called Hyaluronic Acid (HA). Although this treatment uses a synthetic version of it, HA is a natural substance that your body creates which helps stretch and flex your skin as well as reduce wrinkles and fine lines. When the synthetic HA is injected into your lips, it creates a fuller, more plump appearance.

What’s the first step?

The first step in getting Lip Fillers in The Woodlands is to contact our clinic and schedule your free consultation. During this one-on-one appointment with one of our trained technicians, you will be able to address all of your aesthetic desires, ask any questions and address concerns about the treatment, and get your evaluation. Once your technician provides you with their professional opinion, if you are in agreement with their suggestion, then our patient coordinator will schedule your treatment appointment and provide you with a full breakdown of the cost as well as any pre-treatment instructions to follow.

What to Expect on the Day of Lip Fillers

When you come in for your lip filler procedure, we will begin by applying a topical anesthetic to your lips so you won’t feel any pain and the process will be as comfortable as possible. The numbing creams often consist of benzocaine, lidocaine, and tetracaine (BLT). About 15 to 30 minutes later, your lips should be numb. If you have a BLT allergy, you may be given a nerve block injection to numb your lips, which takes about 15 to 30 minutes as well.

The technician then uses a thin needle to inject lip filler into targeted parts of your lips, which can include the edges of your lips (vermillion border), the curve in the center of your upper lip (Cupid’s bow), and the corners of your mouth. While you won’t feel any pain, many patients express feeling a pinching sensation, which may cause their eyes to water.

An ice pack may be applied to your lips throughout the procedure to minimize swelling and bruising.

The entire procedure could take as little as 30 minutes or as long as two hours.

Lip Fillers Recovery

What is the downtime?

Once you’re finished with your procedure, the technician will gently massage your lips so that they absorb the filler; they may continue to ice your lips as well. You will be monitored for up to 15 minutes to ensure you don’t experience any side effects, such as dizziness, nausea, or substantial bleeding. Once it is decided that you no longer require monitoring, you’ll be able to go home. Although the local anesthetic won’t make you tired or groggy so you can drive yourself home, you may choose to have a family member or friend drive you home just in case.

Your lips may be swollen, sensitive, and bruised, but those reactions should fade away after 24 to 48 hours, however, it can take up to a week.

You may be asked to return for a follow-up appointment about two weeks after the procedure to monitor your lips. Pictures may be taken for your medical record so you can see what your lips looked like before the procedure and after they healed.

Here are some tips that can help during your initial recovery for the best results:

  • Apply an ice pack for up to 10 minutes to reduce inflammation, pain, and swelling.
  • Avoid exercising for at least 24 hours
  • Be careful brushing your teeth
  • Don’t wear lipstick, lip balm, or any other product on your lips for at least 24 hours
  • Drink plenty of water
  • Refrain from touching or puckering your lips, including kissing and sipping from a straw
