Can Restylane Lyft be used to plump up the lips?

Volbella, Restylane, and Juvederm are good fillers to use to create a symmetrical lip. NovaThreads can also be used to improve lift and shape. Implants or fat are alternatives. Technique will be important here, so you'll want to see someone meticulous. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

I would not recommend Lyft in the lips due to the dense nature of the injectable.  For lips, I prefer to use fillers such as Restylane or Juvederm to achieve a softer, more natural result.  Lyft has mid-face indication and is a really nice product to contour and lift the cheeks.  Number of syringes required will vary based on the patient's individual needs and goals-- I always advise patients to go for optimal correction simply because I know it will give them the result they will be most pleased with in the long run. 

Lyft is a dense hyaluronic filler which is not the best choice for lips which require a softer filler such as Juvederm, Volbella, or Silk.

Thank you for your question. Restylane Lyft can be used in the lips, however, Restylane and Restylane Silk are typically recommended for the lips due to their smaller particle size. However, Restylane Lyft is wonderful in the cheek area. I typically recommend at least 1 syringe of Restylane Lyft on each side to start.

Best,

Thank you for this question. Restylane Lyft can be used in the lips, but as the particles are bigger, it is likely that lumpiness could happen more readily so Silk and Restylane with smaller particles are traditionally better fillers for the lips. Best, Dr. ALDO :)

Thank you for sharing your question. Restylane Lyft can be used to enhance the lips, however I prefer to use Restylane-L or Juvederm in my practice, as these fillers offer a softer aesthetic. For the cheeks, however, Restylane Lyft is an excellent filler that can certainly help redefine the cheekbones. For my average patient, I probably use at least 1 syringe per side to make a noticeable improvement. I recommend having your treatments performed with a microcannula to minimize bruising and pain.  I recommend consulting with a board certified specialist who will be able to evaluate you in person and provide you with more specific recommendations. Best of luck with your treatment.

Thank you for the question. Restylane is a family of hyaluronic acid based fillers for the face and lips. Restylane Lyft is the thickest and most viscous of the three products, and is used in the midface/cheeks and nasolabial folds. It is not recommended for use in the lips. Restylane (the original) or Restylane Silk are great for the lips. In my practice, I most often use Restylane Silk or Juvederm Ultra in the lips. Best of luck and take care!

Thank you for your question about whether or not Restylane Lyft can be used in the lips, and on average how many syringes are needed for treatment of the cheeks.  Restylane Lyft is not indicated for use in the lips.  It is used to volumize the midface.  It can be used to define the cheekbones, and provide lift to the midface which can in turn soften lines of the lower face such as marionette lines.  Typical starting amounts of Restylane Lyft would be one syringe per side.  Depending on the amount of volume loss, you may need more.  To be certain you receive appropriate treatment, see two or more experienced, licensed and board-certified providers in your area for a complete evaluation to make sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for you to have treatment. I hope this helps.

Some facial filler are not used in the lips. Restyle Lyft is primarily used in the cheeks or middle facial area for most patients. The lips are more often treated with hyaluronic acid gel filler such as regular Restylane, Restylane Silk, Juvederm, or Belotero.Best,Dr. Chaboki

Thank you for your question. 
Restylane Lyft is a more firm, dense gel compared to some of the other available hyaluronic fillers. It is indicated for cheek and mid face augmentation. 
There are many great softer products for lip filler. Juvederm  Volbella is the newest FDA approved filler for lip lines.  It does a great job at softening lip lines without the bulky or puffy appearance.  For restoring lip volume Juvederm Ultra or restylane would be good choices. 
Restylane Lyft can be used for cheek augmentation; however, Juvederm Voluma  is the only hyaluronic filler with FDA approval for cheek augmentation. Juvederm, Voluma has a higher G prime and greater longevity.  Patients may require one syringe for each side, and possibly 1 and 1/2 to 2 syringes per side.
