5 Things You Need to Know Before Having Lip Fillers

It's no doubt that many women are wanting that perfect pout! But before you bite the bulllet, there are some key things you need to know before receiving lip injections Vaughan.

1. Are Lip Fillers Safe?

Lip Fillers are safe when the correct health Canada approved product is used. It's important to ask the right questions on what type of filler is being used. Generally Hyaluronic acid is the safest and most popular lip filler.

2. How Long Do Lip Fillers Last?

When your body is exposed to a foreign substance, it can go into protection mode and begin to break down what doesn't belong. Typically fillers can last 6-10 months. The quality of the filler used can help increase the longevity as it may be more recognizable to your body. Although you may choose the best filler in the market, its up to your body to decide how fast it will break it down! If you are unhappy with your result, a product called hyaluronidase can be used to dissolve the product!

3. Hire A Qualified Injector

Lip fillers Vaughan should only be administered by a highly trained nurse or doctor. Make sure you do your research on who your injector is and what their qualifications are. Putting this treatment into the wrong person's hands can effect the results and safety of the procedure.

4. Do lip fillers hurt?

Lip Fillers can be uncomfortable, but a topical numbing product is always applied prior to the injection. A skilled injector will learn specific techniques to reduce the discomfort.

5. How Much Do Lip Fillers Vaughan Cost?

The price may vary depending on location, injector experience, and product used. However, $650 for a full syringe and $40 for a half syringe is considered average cost.

At our lip fillers Vaughan clinic, we ensure that a good client experience is reflected through our nurse's bed side manner, a thorough consultation prior to injecting, and that all medical history forms are filled out and reviewed prior to injecting. Our nurse has many years of experience in performing filler injections, and is capable of achieving a look that not only the client desires, but that is appropriate to their facial anatomy. We sometimes recommend starting with half syringe and building based on how the lips heal.

After your lip fillers Vaughan injection, the lips will appear to be swollen, and within a few days some bruising may occur. After the swelling and bruising has gone down, there may be a slight reduction in volume due to reduced swelling! This is why we recommend starting off with less filler for the first time to ensure you are comfortable with the over all look.

After your injection you can use an icepack to reduce the swelling, but shouldn't move or massage the area unless indicated other wise by your injector. You must stay away from any other radio frequency type facials as this may melt or disturb the filler.
