The type of filler used for your lip augmentation is best left up to your injector. We use high-grade, hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers for lip augmentation. HA is a naturally occurring, clear, gel-like substance that keeps skin looking hydrated and healthy, and is also the base for most dermal fillers. When placed by an experienced injector, they move dynamically with the face, and look and feel completely natural!
Different types of fillers are used to achieve different things. Typically, the best fillers for the lips are soft to the touch; Juvederm Volbella, Juvederm Ultra, RHA 2, RHA 3, or Restylane are ideal for lip enhancement because they can add significant volume, but are flexible enough to mimic natural lip tissue. Your injector will discuss the benefits of each type with you, and they will use their expertise to determine which filler is best to achieve your lips’ best look and shape.
It is important to remember that achieving 100% symmetry in the human face is not possible. Your surgeon will describe the outcome that you can expect to see after the surgery, and maintaining realistic expectations for your results is essential.
