Juvederm lip augmentation is ideal for patients with uneven, thin, dry, cracked, or aging lips. If you have uneven or asymmetrical lips that throw your facial harmony off-balance, lip fillers can restore facial symmetry to improve your appearance. If you have lip lines on or above your lips, Juvederm fillers can fill the lip lines, making your lips appear smooth and supple.
Juvederm lip augmentation is suitable for most patients over 21 years of age; however, you might not be eligible if you’re pregnant or have a history of allergic reactions to hyaluronic acid-based fillers. Your Juvederm lip augmentation provider will examine your lips and obtain a medical history to determine if you’re a suitable candidate for Juvederm lip augmentation.
Your non-surgical lip augmentation will start with an initial examination and consultation.Your practitioner will carefully examine your lips and review your medical history to determine if you’re an eligible candidate for the treatment. If not, she’ll recommend alternative, ideal cosmetic treatments for your specific needs. If you are an eligible candidate, she’ll curate a personalized treatment plan based on your specific needs and concerns.
Your provider will provide extremely specific Juvederm injections into strategically-chosen points around your lips. The number of injections will depend on your lips and cosmetic expectations. The injections are delivered in a few minutes, following which you can resume most of your daily activities. You might experience minor swelling, irritation, and redness, but not enough to cause severe pain or keep you away from work.
You’ll immediately notice the treatment results, but the final results will gradually appear over the next couple of days. The results will last for 6 months to 1 year, depending on how fast your body metabolizes the hyaluronic acid. You can extend the results with maintenance treatments.
