Reviews
Ideal Candidates
Anyone who is struggling with the early signs of aging or would like to enhance their natural lips is a good candidate for dermal fillers. As with all aesthetic procedures, the ideal patient will be in good health, understand the treatment, and have realistic expectations for their final results. The Restylane and Juvéderm families of dermal fillers are safe for all skin types and ethnicities. During the consultation appointment, your practitioner at Refine Medical Spa will help each patient decide if Restylane or Juvéderm is appropriate for their personal situation.
What to Expect
Most appointments for lip augmentation at Refine Medical Spa take about 30 minutes to complete. After determining the targeted treatment area, the injector will use a very small needle to place the dermal filler, either under the skin or along the lips. Some Restylane and Juvéderm formulas contain Lidocaine, a local anesthetic, so the injections are not considered painful. However, an additional topical or local anesthetic may be used to increase a patient’s comfort level.
While complications from these injections are rare, there is always a small chance for them to occur. The risks of dermal fillers include bleeding, scarring, facial or lip asymmetry, and nerve damage. To avoid any complications, it is important that patients seek out only an experienced provider. The professionals at Refine Medical Spa are nationally recognized physical trainers on the safe and effective use of fillers and have been trained in the science and application of Restylane and Juvéderm products.
Anticipated Results
There is no downtime required after a lip augmentation session at Refine Medical Spa. Patients are free to return to work, school, and other routine activities right after their injection. While patients may notice some mild swelling, redness, and tenderness in the treatment area, these should resolve quickly on their own. Bruising is also possible and this may take a week or more to fade. Restylane and Juvéderm products may remain malleable under the skin for the first 48 – 72 hours, so patients should avoid touching the treatment area for the first 2 – 3 days. The benefits of Restylane and Juvéderm can usually be seen right away and will recharge the body’s natural production of collagen. The results typically last from 6 – 9 months, possibly longer. As needed, maintenance treatments at Refine can be performed to extend the results.
