Who is a Candidate for Lip Injection?
Any healthy person wishing to improve lip proportions, symmetry or definition of the lips and those wishing to add more fullness to the lips may be good candidates for lip injection or lip enhancement.
Does Dr. Harmych Perform the Lip Filler Injections?
Yes. Dr. Harmych personally performs all lip injections. While nurse practitioners or other healthcare providers may perform lip filler injections at other plastic surgery offices or medical spas, Dr. Harmych personally performs all lip injections at our Beachwood office.
How is Lip Filler Performed?
Lip injection is performed at Dr. Harmych’s office after the lips are anesthetized (numbed) with a topical cream. The topical anesthetic medicine takes about 20-30 minutes to work. A hyaluronic acid (HA) filler is gently injected into the lips. The lip injection procedure takes approximately 5 minutes. The procedure is generally not painful.
What medications should I avoid prior to having my lips injected?
Aspirin, NSAID’s (such as ibuprofen, Advil, Aleve, naproxen) and other medications known to cause bruising are avoided for one week prior to lip injection. Herbal supplements, such as garlic, ginseng, gingko biloba, vitamin E, fish oil and omega-3 fatty acids may also increase bruising and should be avoided for one week prior to lip injection.
While I be comfortable during the Lip Injection Procedure?
Yes. Minimal discomfort is experienced during and after lip filler and lip injection treatments. Dr. Harmych and his office staff are very professional and caring and will make you feel very comfortable during and after lip injection.
What Should I Expect After Lip Injections?
Almost all patients have some amount of swelling that resolved in 24-48 hours. Hydrating products, such as Aquafor, may be used on the lips immediately after lip injection. There are no activity restrictions. You should avoid eating and drinking until lip numbness resolves – generally within one hour. Applying ice or cooling packs is neither necessary nor recommended. Any discomfort following lip injection may be treated with Tylenol.
