Will you be needing a new filler of lip injections after a while or will lips go back to normal?
Answer: Perfecting the Pout--Lip Augmentation that Works, Fillers (Volbella, Restylane, Voluma), Implants, Fat No, lip augmentation with fillers don't result in significant scarring. Lip fillers require regular maintenance and touch ups to keep results. Implants or fat would be a permanent option. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a facial sculpting expert.

Answer: Don't you get scar tissue in lips after lip injections? Thank you for sharing your question. Dermal fillers placed into the lips help supply additional voluma, shape, and definition to the lips and do not create any significant scarring. Nearly all the fillers used to accomplish are temporary and will need a touch-up or additional treatment in the future for maintenance. If you were to allow the filler material to fully dissolve, it would leave you with your original lip appearance. Hope this helps.

Answer: Lip Augmentation Anne. Lip augmentation with fillers like Juvederm lasts 4-6 months and does not leave scar tissue, so it needs to be repeated if so desired. They will go back to normal after it goes away. A more permanent option is fat transfer to the lips, and studies show that at least 50% of fat transferred to the face stays put. Check out the link below for a more detailed description of lip augmentation options. Be sure to consult with a board certified plastic surgeon. Good luck!

Answer: Scar tissue after lip enhanacement Dear annemadsen2:I have only seen scarring after lip augmentation (by which I mean areas of firmness that can be felt) once. This occurred in a celebrity who had gone to another dermatologist who used a filler that should not be used in the lips, likely Radiesse or Artecoll. We were able to resolve the problem readily with Protopic and Retin-A, and since then she has stuck to Beletero and Juvederm without any problems. All the best, Dr. Clark

Answer: Lip injections cause scar tissue? My experience is that after a couple years of regular lip injections, the lips don't go quite down to baseline. Is this collagen in response to the injections or residual "trapped" filler, I'm not sure. The need for injections goes down over time.
