Introduction
Full, defined lips have long been associated with beauty and youth. At Hamilton Facial Plastic Surgery, we offer lip fillers as a non-surgical way to enhance the shape, volume, and symmetry of your lips. Whether you’re looking to restore lost volume or add a subtle boost for a more balanced appearance, Dr. Hamilton and his team utilize advanced techniques to ensure your results appear natural and refined. This is particularly beneficial for men and women residing in the Indianapolis area, as well as those from across the Midwest, the nation, and abroad.
Lip fillers are injectable treatments made with hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body that helps maintain hydration and volume. These fillers are skillfully placed into specific areas of the lips and surrounding mouth region to smooth fine lines, enhance contours, and create a fuller, more youthful appearance. Products are specifically designed for the delicate lip area and are tailored to fit your aesthetic goals.
Lip fillers are specifically designed for the treatment of your lips, and the injections are customized to plump up and improve a patient’s facial appearance through injection into the lips and the perioral area. Treatments are effective at adding volume to your lips and can be done in our office with minimal downtime.
You may be an excellent candidate for lip fillers if you experience fine lines in your upper and lower lips or around your mouth, or if you would like augmentation or enhancement of your lips, particularly for those patients lacking lip volume, or if you would like to achieve improved lip definition.
Speak with Dr. Hamilton or one of our advanced nurse injectors about any history of multiple allergies or severe allergies (such as anaphylaxis) that could affect whether or not you are a candidate for lip fillers. Also, please inform your injector if you take blood thinners, such as aspirin, ibuprofen, or Plavix.
Lip Fillers & Lip Augmentation First Step
The lip filler procedure is not complex, but it does require a consultation that includes a thorough evaluation and a discussion of your concerns and goals. This time includes reviewing your medical history and ruling out any contraindications to injectable fillers. The consultation is the ideal opportunity for you to ask questions about the various lip fillers available to you, including the expected duration of the results and potential complications. Dr. Hamilton and our advanced injectors in Indianapolis have extensive experience with facial anatomy and know exactly where to inject the filler for the best results, and our advanced injectors will be able to evaluate whether or not you are a good candidate for lip fillers, and if so, then your treatment can be done the day of your consultation or scheduled for another time.
Once you arrive for your appointment, you will have a consultation with your advanced nurse injector to create a personalized plan for achieving your aesthetic goals. We will place topical numbing cream to keep you comfortable during treatment. A patient’s skin tissue is thoroughly cleansed to eliminate pathogens before any treatments. In some cases, our advanced injectors will smooth the skin tissue near the injection site with gentle fingertip strokes to assist in dispersing the dermal filler. The actual injection process can take less than 30 minutes. Ice may be applied prior to injection, and our advanced injectors will carefully place the filler to achieve the best results. Your results can be tailored for a more subtle or dramatic look, depending on your personal preferences. You will be able to see the effects and enjoy your results immediately!
Recovery following your injections is minimal, and patients can resume their regular activities immediately after treatment. Makeup should not be applied for 24 hours after your treatment, and you should abstain from vigorous activities or exercise for 24 hours. Additionally, avoid extreme sun, saunas, or steam rooms for the next two weeks. After your injection, you may experience mild to moderate discoloration, bruising, redness, itching, firmness, lumps, tenderness, or swelling. In the unlikely event that you experience severe pain or discoloration, please contact our office immediately. As soon as the procedure is complete, you are free to resume your normal activities at home or work, and most patients experience minimal discomfort.
Costs associated with lip fillers vary from patient to patient. Please call the Carmel or Greenwood office today if you have questions regarding the price of lip filler treatment.
