Lip Filler at NOVA Concierge Medicine & Aesthetics in Fairfax, VA

What is Lip Filler?

Lip fillers are one of the most popular types of dermal fillers and a form of lip augmentation that is designed to increase lip volume for a more luscious pout and fuller lips. Most lip fillers include hyaluronic acid as their main ingredient. Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance that works by attracting and binding moisture in the lips, which is what works to boost lip volume in the lower and upper lip.

Lip filler and Botox can also be combined for a lip flip, a treatment that creates a fuller and more defined appearance to the lips.

Why Choose Lip Filler Injections?

For those seeking lip enhancement, lip filler injections can be a perfect option. Many patients choose lip fillers because they are struggling with thin lips and/or looking to address fine lines and wrinkles around the lip area. Patients also choose this non-surgical treatment because it doesn’t involve incisions or scarring that come with plastic surgery.

Key Benefits of Lip Filler Injections

Boost confidence: Many patients notice a boost in their confidence after they receive these hyaluronic acid fillers. When you love what you see when you look in the mirror, it’s easy for your confidence and self-esteem to significantly improve.

Instant results: After your lip filler treatments, you will see results instantly. While it can take a few weeks to see the full results as the fillers settle, you will see a significant improvement in your lips right away.

Plump up lip volume: One of the biggest benefits of lip fillers is the increase in lip volume. For those struggling with thin lips or who have lost volume in their lips as they’ve aged, dermal filler injections can give you the fuller, more youthful lips you’ve been dreaming of.

Lasting results: Lip fillers typically last for 6-12 months. After that, you will need to schedule follow-up appointments and receive re-treatment to maintain your natural-looking results.

What to Expect During Lip Filler Treatment

To start off your lip filler treatment, we’ll cleanse the treatment area. From there, we’ll use a very thin needle to inject the lip filler formula into the lips. You might feel a slight pinching sensation, but that’s about it. How many injections you require will depend on the desired volume you’re looking for.

After your treatment, you will likely see redness, bruising, and swelling at the injection sites, but these side effects will dissipate within a day or two. To minimize swelling, you can apply ice packs for 10-15 minutes at a time. You’ll also want to avoid putting pressure on your lips, smoking, taking blood thinners, and performing strenuous exercise. Abstaining from using makeup or lip balm on your lips is also recommended.

Lip Filler Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

How long does lip filler last?

While it can depend on the type of filler used, most lip fillers last anywhere from six months to a year. At that point, you will need repeated injections to maintain your results. Our team at NOVA Concierge Medicine and Aesthetics will give you an exact timeline during your consultation.

Does lip filler hurt?

Lip fillers don’t tend to hurt. The needle used is very thin, and at most, you might feel a slight stinging sensation. We can apply a topical anesthetic, but it’s usually not needed.

Can lip fillers be dissolved if I dont like the results?

If your lip fillers are made out of hyaluronic acid, they can be dissolved quickly and easily. An enzyme called hyaluronidase can be injected to break down the filler, allowing the body to naturally absorb it.

What is the difference between a half syringe and a full syringe of lip filler?

A full syringe of lip filler contains about 1 mL of fluid, while a half syringe only contains 0.5 mL. Additionally, a full syringe will offer more significant results, as more of the formula is being added to the treatment area.

What is the difference between a lip flip and lip filler?

The main difference between a lip flip and lip filler at NOVA Concierge Medicine and Aesthetics is the formula used for treatment. Botox is used for a lip flip, while dermal fillers are used as lip fillers. Additionally, a lip flip is used to lift the upper lip, while lip filler is meant to add volume to the lips.

You will be thrilled with your results!

Flew in from Chicago to have this doctor assess and treat my lax and old skin! Dr. Zaidi was most definitely worth the trip! She was so caring, willing to listen so rare to find in a doctor. She gave me all the options and prices before we started anything and wasn't pushy. She took time to understand my face and my needs.

Came here because they just opened up in the same building. I’m so happy, a lot of my clients I sent over also love Dr Z. She is the kindest person I have met and my clients love her so much. She is so knowledgeable on everything and even more. I trust only Dr Z for all my needs. I got some fillers and Botulinum Toxin but I didn’t know what I needed when I went in but she was thorough and explained the anatomy, and why I needed what. She also kept telling me to be real and that miracles don’t happen after one visit. I’ll definitely be back she’s worth it. Also reasonable priced compared to other areas.

After waiting years to find a reputable and quality service for laser hair removal, I was so pleased to have found Dr. Zaidi’s services. She did an amazing job with my treatment. It was painless, clean & efficient. The office ambiance is so eloquent, the equipment is top notch. You really are getting a luxury experience from check in, to check out. Thank you, and can’t wait for my next appt! I highly recommended checking this secret gem out for your medical and/or aesthetic needs.

I’ve been very happy with all the procedures I have received from Dr. Zaidi. She and her staff are professional and super friendly. Dr. Zaidi takes the time to explain everything and doesn’t pressure me to do something she may suggest. The new office is exquisite and I like going there for my visits.

I met Dr. Zaidi through a friend whose recommendations I trust. Never thought I’d be a Botulinum Toxin / filler “girl”, and explained all my concerns about looking unnatural. She understood and reassured me, so I decided to take the plunge. I’m so glad I did! The treatments were exactly what I was looking for, natural but improved. Subtle, yet such a difference!! I wish I had met her years ago. I’ve already referred a friend who loves her and the treatments as well. I’m back for a halo treatment and RF micro needling to address my neck and décolleté area, damaged from decades of sun exposure. I have every confidence in her ability to help me feel more confident about myself.
