Enhance Volume and
Restore Lip Symmetry
Lip augmentation is a cosmetic procedure that enhances the shape, structure, and fullness of your lips. Most commonly performed using injectable fillers like JUVÉDERM®, this treatment adds volume, smooths fine lines around the mouth, and improves overall symmetry. Dr. Patel personalizes each lip enhancement to suit your features and aesthetic preferences. Whether you’re seeking subtle refinement or more noticeable fullness, lip augmentation helps elevate your natural beauty with results that are soft, balanced, and beautifully you.
Aesthetic Concerns That Lip Augmentation Treats:
- Naturally thin or underdeveloped lips
- Age-related volume loss in the lips
- Uneven or asymmetrical lip shape
- Fine lines around the mouth (perioral lines)
- Lack of definition in the lip border
How Does Lip Augmentation Work?
Lip augmentation involves using hyaluronic acid (HA)-based fillers, such as JUVÉDERM, to enhance lip volume and shape. Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance in the body that attracts and retains moisture, thus providing hydration and plumpness.
When injected into targeted areas of the lips, HA fillers add structure, smooth out fine lines, and improve definition. The gel-like consistency integrates seamlessly into the tissue, allowing for natural movement. The results are immediate and reversible if necessary.

How is Lip Augmentation
Done?
Your session begins with a detailed consultation, during which Dr. Patel listens to your goals and evaluates your facial anatomy. A topical numbing cream is applied to maximize comfort. Using a fine needle or cannula, she precisely injects the chosen filler into targeted areas of your lips. The process typically takes 20 to 30 minutes. Dr. Patel gently massages the area to ensure even distribution. You can return to most daily activities shortly after your visit.
What Happens During Recovery After
Lip Augmentation?
After your treatment, you may experience mild swelling, tenderness, bruising, or firmness around the injection sites. These side effects are normal and usually resolve within a few days. To support optimal healing, you should avoid strenuous activity, alcohol, and excessive sun or heat exposure for 24 to 48 hours. Applying ice packs gently can help reduce swelling. Dr. Patel will provide personalized aftercare instructions to ensure your recovery is smooth.
What Are Lip Augmentation Results Like?
You’ll notice fuller lips immediately after your session, with the final results settling in once any swelling subsides. Depending on the filler used, the results last 6 to 12 months. To maintain your look, touch-ups are recommended once or twice a year. Dr. Patel will work with you to create a personalized plan that keeps your lips looking naturally enhanced over time.
