About Lip Filler Treatments

Lip filler treatments use injectable dermal fillers to enhance the lips by adding volume and refining definition. For many patients, the lips become thin or deflated over time, or potentially because of genetics. Most lip fillers are hyaluronic acid (HA)-based, a substance that attracts and retains moisture. HA creates a natural pout that can move naturally with your expressions. (2)

Sadyk Fayz, PA, strategically injects small amounts of filler into specific locations on the lips to avoid any stiffness.

Benefits

Lip filler treatments offer a range of aesthetic and practical benefits, such as:

  • Improved lip volume
  • Enhanced lip shape
  • Better symmetry
  • Smoother appearance/softened wrinkles
  • Customizable results
  • No downtime
  • Temporary nature

Ideal Candidates

Ideal candidates include those who:

  • Desire fuller or more defined lips without surgery
  • Have naturally thin lips or age-related volume loss
  • Want to improve lip symmetry or contour
  • Are in good overall health
  • Have realistic expectations about results

Personal Consultation

Lip filler treatment begins with a one-on-one consultation. During this visit, Sadyk Fayz, PA, takes time to understand your aesthetic goals, concerns, and previous experience with lip filler/injectables. He will evaluate your lip shape and other facial features to determine how lip fillers can best enhance your appearance.

He will also review your medical history, allergies, lifestyle factors, and more to ensure your safety and recommend the best type of filler for you.

Contact Beso Aesthetics online or call (212) 970-BESO to schedule your personal consultation.

Procedure

Lip filler treatments typically only take about 30 minutes or less. Many HA fillers contain a local anesthetic to minimize discomfort during the procedure, but you can also receive a topical anesthetic to further reduce discomfort.

Sadyk Fayz, PA, carefully injects small amounts of filler into predetermined areas of the lips. The exact technique he uses depends on your specific goals. (3)

Throughout the procedure, Sadyk Fayz, PA, will continuously assess the lips to ensure balanced results. Because the treatment does not involve incisions or sutures, patients can return to most daily activities shortly after leaving the office.

Results

HA provides immediate plumping. Your lips will appear fuller and more defined while retaining their natural movement and expression. Depending on the selected filler and your individual metabolism rate, results can last several months. Many patients choose maintenance treatments to preserve their enhanced look over time.

Recovery

Recovery after lip filler treatment is typically minimal. You might experience some minor swelling and bruising, but this will be very mild and will resolve quickly. There may be some redness and tenderness, too. After any swelling subsides, you will be able to see your real results.

You can resume all of your normal activities almost right away, but we often recommend waiting a bit before participating in more strenuous activities.

The minimal recovery of lip fillers makes it a great alternative to surgery, such as the surgical lip lift, because it lets patients return to their lives almost immediately. This feature is highly valued by busy patients and by patients who do not want to go through an extensive recovery

Risks

When an experienced aesthetic professional administers treatment, lip fillers are generally safe, but all injectable procedures carry some degree of risk. Potential risks include:

  • Temporary swelling or redness
  • Bruising at injection sites
  • Asymmetry during initial healing
  • Filler migration
  • Rare vascular complications

Sadyk Fayz, PA, prioritizes patient safety through careful technique, in-depth anatomical knowledge, and conservative filler placement. Thorough consultation and adherence to aftercare instructions further reduce the likelihood of complications. He even teaches his own course on certain injectables at Beso Academy, showcasing his expertise and cementing his position as a leader in his field.

Alternatives

For patients exploring options beyond lip fillers, Beso Aesthetics offers several injectable and non-surgical treatments that may address related aesthetic goals. Many patients opt to receive injectables or fillers in other regions of the face, in addition to the lips. Some of these include:

Chin Fillers

Chin fillers can improve lower face balance and enhance facial proportions. A well-defined chin can be very impactful in the appearance of one’s profile. In some cases, chin enhancement complements lip filler results by creating better profile harmony.

Jawline Contouring

Jawline contouring with injectable fillers can define the lower face and support overall facial structure. This can create a more balanced appearance in conjunction with lip fillers.

Smile Line Fillers

Smile line fillers target the folds that extend from the nose to the corners of the mouth. Treating this area can enhance overall facial rejuvenation while complementing lip enhancement.

FAQ

How long do lip filler treatments take?

Most appointments only last 30 minutes. However, patient experiences may vary; patients who undergo additional procedures or get fillers injected into multiple facial regions may see a longer appointment time. We will let you know what to expect during your personal consultation!

Are lip filler injections painful?

The actual process of lip injections is not considered particularly painful; this is because your specialist can use a local anesthetic, and in some cases, the filler itself has a numbing agent in its formula. In any case, the injections are quick and performed with a very fine needle. You might experience some discomfort after the injections, but this is typically very minimal— you just might feel like your lips are a little tender for a bit.

When will I see my lip filler results?

Results are visible immediately, with refinement as swelling decreases. Hyaluronic acid works instantly after injection to bind to water molecules and maintain plumping hydration in your lips.

How long do lip fillers last?

Results typically last several months, depending on filler type and metabolism. After your results wear off, you are welcome to consider follow-up injections to maintain your lip enhancement.

Can lip fillers look natural?

Yes! Conservative placement and precise technique allow for natural-looking enhancement. It is always our goal for lip fillers to look as natural as possible so that the people in your life can’t really pinpoint what has changed about your face—you’ll just look stunning!

Is there downtime after treatment?

Most patients resume normal activities the same day as their lip injections. However, in some cases, patients may want to avoid especially strenuous activities due to tenderness and swelling—but for the most part, patients can do whatever they want after their procedure.

Can I adjust lip fillers after injection?

Hyaluronic acid fillers can be modified or dissolved if necessary. It is also important to note that these fillers are temporary and will dissolve on their own over time.

Who performs lip filler treatments at Beso Aesthetics?

All lip filler treatments are performed by Sadyk Fayz, PA, an experienced aesthetic physician associate. He has extensive experience with fillers and even teaches courses on injectables at his Beso Academy.

What are lip fillers made of?

At Beso Aesthetics, Most of our lip fillers are made of hyaluronic acid, a substance that is naturally occurring and functions to bind to water molecules in the skin to retain moisture. This mechanism makes it extremely effective for natural-looking lip enhancements that can move with your expressions.
