Lip fillers are injections that add volume to your lips. They consist of synthetic hyaluronic acid (HA) which is a natural substance in your body. Hyaluronic-acid based fillers tend to be the preferred choice among patients and practitioners because they are temporary, reversible and build upon the foundation of hyaluronic acid that is already found throughout the body.
There are many different brands of lip fillers, including RHA® Revance and Restylane® that provide natural-looking lips, enhancing overall facial harmony with minimal downtime.
The cost of lip fillers can vary based on factors such as the type of filler used, the provider's expertise, and the geographic location. Generally, prices for lip fillers start around $500 per syringe. This base cost can increase depending on the number of syringes required to achieve the desired volume and shape, as well as any additional fees for consultation or follow-up appointments. It's important to consult with our medical professional to determine the best options for your individual needs and to get a comprehensive estimate tailored to your specific goals.

Anyone who is allergic to any of the proteins used to make hyaluronic acid, or is allergic to lidocaine (which is used in the topical anaesthetic), or you have a bleeding disorder or are generally quite prone to bleeding, should avoid getting lip fillers.
Furthermore, if you have an injury near the injection site you should wait until it heals before getting lip filler.
If you are pregnant or breastfeeding you should wait until after due to the unknown effects of dermal fillers on pregnancy and nursing.
