Lip augmentation offers immediate results with minimal downtime, providing a quick way to rejuvenate your smile.

How lip augmentation works
Lip augmentation enhances lip volume and shape using hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers. Hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body, attracts and retains water, creating immediate plumpness and hydration. During the procedure, Dr. Nadimi precisely injects the filler into targeted areas of the lips, improving symmetry, contour, and fullness. The HA integrates with the skin’s tissues, offering immediate results with a soft, natural feel.

Lip augmentation FAQs
How Long Does Lip Augmentation Take?
The procedure is quick and convenient, typically taking 20-30 minutes to complete.
Will the Procedure Hurt?
Most patients find the treatment very tolerable. The fillers used often contain lidocaine, a numbing agent that minimizes discomfort during injections. Additionally, a topical numbing cream can be applied beforehand to further enhance your comfort.
How Long Do the Results Last?
The results of lip augmentation typically last 6-12 months, depending on the filler used and individual factors such as metabolism. Regular touch-ups can help maintain your desired look.
Will My Lips Look Overfilled or Unnatural?
Dr. Nadimi prioritizes natural, balanced results. Her meticulous technique ensures that your lips are enhanced in harmony with your features, avoiding an overdone or “artificial” appearance.
Is There Any Downtime After the Procedure?
Lip augmentation requires minimal downtime. You may experience mild swelling, redness, or tenderness around the injection sites, which typically subsides within a few days. Most patients feel comfortable returning to normal activities immediately.
Can I Customize My Results?
Absolutely. During your consultation, Dr. Nadimi will discuss your goals and evaluate your facial anatomy to create a customized treatment plan. Whether you prefer a subtle enhancement or a more dramatic look, the procedure is tailored to your preferences.
What Should I Avoid After the Procedure?
After your treatment, avoid strenuous exercise, alcohol, and extreme heat for at least 24 hours. Refrain from touching or massaging your lips to allow the filler to settle properly. Dr. Nadimi will provide detailed aftercare instructions to ensure optimal results.
