With so many options available it can be stressful to understand the best lip filler to get the results you want.
The type of filler you use will directly affect the shape and contour that you lips take on.
Below, we delve into three of the most popular options for your lip filler treatment.
Collagen
Collagen has decreased in popularity over the years.
Once deemed the gold standard for dramatic lips, collagen-based lip fillers eventually became seen as providing a more overdone appearance.
Fat
Fat-based lip injections are one of the safest options as they contain zero foreign material.
However, fat can be a tricky injection option as the results can become lumpy and unpredictable in nature.
Moreover, many patients experience a higher rate of bruising and bleeding from fat injections.
Hyaluronic Acid
Hyaluronic acid is by far the most frequently injected filler type in the lips and beyond.
Because hyaluronic acid is naturally-occurring in the body it can be accepted very well in the form of injections.
How Do Hyaluronic Acid Fillers Work?
Popular hyaluronic-acid based fillers such as Juvederm and Restylane are applied to the lip area using a tiny needle or cannula.
Once the filler is injected, it will be massaged to ensure an even spread.
These fillers draw water toward them which results in the plumping effect they have on the lips.
How Long Do Hyaluronic Acid-Based Fillers Last?
You can generally expect treatment results to last anywhere from six to nine months before you will need to return for a follow-up appointment.
