Hello, I want to get lip filler. I was just curious if it always works, I want to try hyaluron. Since I read that botox sometimes doesn't work (nonresponder or so) I wanted to know if hyaluron in lips sometimes doesn't work. Thanks in advance

Answer: Lip fillers Dear jenider12, I perform a lot of lip injections with fillers such as juvederm and it works great. Many times I need to put more in one side than the other to attempt to even out the vermillion border (The red line of the lip). This helps provide more symmetry at times.For patients looking for a more long lasting result, I recommend fat grafting. That is, using your own bodies fat to make your lips naturally look more shapely. The bonus is that the results last many many years. In general, I avoid using permanent prosthesis because I find that the lips are such dynamic and sensitive structures, the end result is not natural.

Answer: Lip filler is effective when administered by a skilled provider Thank you for your question! When performed by an experienced provider, lip filler can effectively add volume, correct unevenness, and even smooth out lip lines and wrinkles. In fact, this is one of the most effective options for lip augmentation. Botox isn’t typically used for lip augmentation, unless you undergo a “Botox lip flip.” A Botox lip flip works by relaxing the muscles around the mouth to a point that allows the lips to flip outward, providing the appearance of fuller lips. A trained professional will be able to assess your aesthetic goals and concerns in order to determine which treatment is ideal for you.
