Lip Filler | Auburn, AL

What is Lip Filler?

Lip augmentation is usually performed with a hyaluronic acid filler. Common names for these fillers are Restylane, Juvederm, and Teoxane. The filler is a clear gel that is injected directly into the lips to plump the tissue. This can be done conservatively to give a slight plump to the lips or more aggressively to produce moderate enlargement.

What are the common products used for lip filler at East Alabama Plastic Surgery?

Each of these products are made from hyaluronic acid and are similar. However, there are small characteristics that can make the difference between a good result and an excellent one!

Hyaluronic lip filler typically lasts 6-12 months.
