How Much Is Lip Filler?
Lip fillers are a fantastic option for anyone looking to add volume, definition, and smoothness to their lips. Commonly made from hyaluronic acid, a substance found naturally in the body, lip fillers are a safe and non-invasive way to enhance your lips and maintain a youthful appearance. But you might be wondering: how much is lip filler going to run me? In this comprehensive guide, we will explore both the price of lip fillers as well as the overall treatment process.
Let’s Talk About Cost.
On average, lip filler treatments can range from a few hundred up to $800.. The cost of treatment can vary based on several factors, including the type of filler used, the amount of filler required, and more. Let’s dive into the main factors that will impact the price:
Brand of Filler
There are many different brands of lip fillers which each have their own unique properties and aesthetic goals. At Urban Aesthetics, for instance, we offer our favorite brands Restylane, Revanesse, and RHA. Certain brands are more expensive due to ingredient type and formulation, amongst other factors.
Experience of Practitioner
Skilled and experienced practitioners may charge higher fees for their services than those who are less qualified. Though it may be tempting to save some money, we highly recommend choosing a qualified medical professional like our experts at Urban Aesthetics for the very best treatment results. After all, these are your lips we’re talking about!
Touch-Up Treatments
The effects of a lip filler treatment will typically fade within six to eighteen months, requiring touch-up visits after that to maintain the desired look. Because the frequency of touch-up treatments depends on your unique preferences and individual genetic factors, each person’s future touch-ups–and the associated costs–will look a little different.
Speaking of touch-up visits, let’s take a look at how our overall lip filler process works at Urban Aesthetics:
Our Process
1 - Consultation
First, you’ll have a thorough consultation with one of our qualified and experienced medical professionals. In it, we will assess your goals, answer any questions, and create a personalized treatment plan.
2 - Treatment Session
Next, you’ll have the lip filler procedure, which often takes less than an hour. We numb you with topical numbing cream to keep you very comfortable. Your medical professional will use a fine needle to inject the filler into specific areas of your lips, carefully sculpting and enhancing them.
3 - Recovery and Results
Last but not least, you’ll get back to your normal activities (minus any strenuous exercise, alcohol, or exposure to extreme sun for the first 48 hours, which we’ll remind you of!). Some temporary swelling or bruising may occur, but will go away within a few days–leaving you with smooth, symmetrical, beautiful lips.
As we mentioned before, the frequency of your touch-up treatments will vary person by person, but will typically take place every six to eighteen months.
All in all, fillers are a versatile and effective option if you’re hoping to enhance the appearance of your lips. Qualified medical professionals like ours at Urban Aesthetics can tailor your treatment to your unique aesthetic goals.
