How We Perform Lip Augmentation in Denver

Advanced hyaluronic acid dermal fillers, such as Juvéderm, are the cutting-edge treatment for lip augmentation today. Injectable fillers provide an ideal method of enhancing the lips, but they require skill and artistry to achieve beautiful, natural-looking results.

Adding volume is only one aspect of lip augmentation. We focus on improving the shape of the lips, enhancing a Cupid’s bow, or creating fuller lips with a natural, lovely pout. We take care to balance the proportions of the upper lip and lower lip to the mouth and the entire face.

What to Expect in a Lip Augmentation Procedure

Lip augmentation with dermal fillers is a quick, minimally invasive procedure performed in our private clinic. Some lip enhancement fillers contain lidocaine, and a topical numbing cream may be applied before our Denver lip injections are performed for a more comfortable treatment experience.

Your injector will carefully mark the areas to be injected in the lips and around the mouth. Using a very fine needle, she will then inject the filler into the treatment areas.

What Is Recovery Like after Lip Augmentation in Denver?

There is virtually no downtime after lip augmentation with dermal fillers. You may be given ice to control swelling, but most patients return to their usual activities immediately after treatment.

You may experience minimal swelling and bruising, which will subside in a few days. To protect your results, avoid direct sunlight, exercise, and high temperatures for the first few days after treatment.

How Long Do Results Last After Lip Augmentation with Dermal Fillers?

At Colorado Plastic Surgery Center, we provide long-lasting results with our lip augmentation in Denver using state-of-the-art hyaluronic acid injectable fillers. How long the results last will depend upon the patient and the type of filler used in the treatment.

Certain fillers, such as Juvéderm Volbella XC, can add volume to the lips and smoothen vertical lip lines around the mouth. This treatment typically lasts up to one full year before requiring re-treatment. Other fillers, such as Juvéderm Ultra XC, are formulated to plump up thin lips and correct parentheses lines around the nose and mouth. These can also last up to a year.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Lip Augmentation in Denver?

The lips play an important role in overall facial appearance. Fuller, shapelier, younger-looking lips can have a rejuvenating effect on the entire face. If you want to add volume, restore symmetry, or improve the shape of your lips, you may be a good candidate for lip augmentation in Denver.

What Do Hyaluronic Acid Dermal Fillers Do for the Lips?

The most popular dermal fillers for lip augmentation today are made of a modified form of hyaluronic acid. This substance, which occurs naturally in the skin, attracts moisture and adds softness and volume.

In treatments skillfully performed by our team at Colorado Plastic Surgery Center, hyaluronic acid fillers enhance the appearance of the lips by adding volume, shape, and structure. Juvéderm fillers for lip augmentation are easy to experience, as the lidocaine in the product, a local anesthetic, has a short-term numbing effect.

Benefits of hyaluronic acid dermal fillers for lip enhancement include the following:

  • Control over the amount of lip volume
  • Less post-procedure bruising
  • Little risk of an allergic reaction
  • Gradual pace of treatment, if desired
  • Natural-looking, long-lasting results
