Lips; What is the Best Long Lasting Filler for Lips?

Michael A. Persky, MD answers: Best long lasting lip filler?

I had Juvederm injected in my lips last year. For a few weeks the upper lip look like an awning hanging over my bottom lip. What cause this to happen?

I want to get one of the fillers again. I don't want that to happen again. Do you think Radiesse last longer then the other fillers?

Hi Mimi,

You may have received too much Juvederm, or had swelling from bruising. Sometimes Juvederm may swell more than usual after injection as it takes up water molecules from under your skin.

Do not put Radiesse in your lips unless you want to have long term lumps and bumps.

Perlane and Juvederm Ultra Plus are the best fillers for lips. If you want the ultimate long term filler then you should consult with an expert in fat transfer. Your own fat is the best long term filler in the lips, but only when performed by an experienced, well trained physician.

Good luck and be well.

Dr. P
