What Are Lip Fillers?

Lip fillers are injectable gels made from hyaluronic acid (HA), a substance naturally found in the body that attracts and retains water. When placed into the lips, HA fillers add immediate volume, define the lip borders and smooth vertical lip lines. Because HA occurs naturally, the fillers integrate smoothly into the tissue and can be dissolved if necessary. Brands we commonly use include Juvederm® (Volbella, Volift), Restylane® Kysse, Teosyal® Kiss and Belotero® Lips.

Lip Filler Procedure

Your journey begins with a consultation where we discuss your desired look, review your medical history and choose the best filler. On treatment day:

  • We cleanse the lip area and apply a topical numbing cream.
  • The filler is injected with a fine needle or cannula into strategic points to build volume and shape.
  • The injector gently massages the area to distribute the product evenly.
  • The appointment lasts 20–30 minutes. You can return to normal activities afterwards, though mild swelling or bruising may occur.

Results are visible immediately, with final appearance settling after swelling subsides (usually within a week). Depending on the product and your metabolism, results typically last 6–12 months; maintenance treatments help preserve your desired look.

Aftercare Tips

Proper aftercare ensures optimal results and minimizes side effects:

  • Avoid touching or massaging the lips for 24 hours.
  • Apply cold compresses to reduce swelling and bruising.
  • Stay hydrated and avoid alcohol, blood‑thinning medications and supplements like fish oil for at least 24 hours.
  • Refrain from strenuous exercise, excessive heat (saunas, hot tubs) and sun exposure for 48 hours.
  • Use an SPF lip balm to protect your lips after treatment.
  • If you experience severe swelling, lumps or unusual pain, contact our clinic.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Are Lip Fillers and How Do They Work?

Lip fillers are injectable gels made from hyaluronic acid. When injected into the lips, HA attracts water and adds volume. It also integrates smoothly with the body’s tissues, allowing for soft, natural enhancements. The filler gradually breaks down over time, so results are temporary and can be maintained with periodic touch‑ups.
We offer a range of Health‑Canada‑approved hyaluronic acid fillers including Juvederm® Volbella, Volift, and Volux; Restylane® Kysse; Teosyal® Kiss; and Belotero® Lips. Each filler has unique qualities; our injectors will recommend the best option based on your desired lip shape, volume and longevity.
The lip filler procedure typically takes approximately 30 to 45 minutes at Albany Cosmetic & Laser Centre. This includes a detailed consultation to discuss goals, the injection process itself, and a brief period of observation afterward to ensure patient comfort and satisfaction with immediate results.
At Albany Cosmetic & Laser Centre, a full syringe (1 mL) of lip filler is typically $550, while a half-syringe (0.5 mL) is $300. The total cost depends on how much product is needed to achieve your goals. During your consultation, we will provide a detailed estimate based on your desired volume and shape.
Most patients report minimal discomfort. We apply a topical anesthetic to numb the area, and most HA fillers contain lidocaine to further reduce sensation. You may feel a brief pinch or pressure during the injection. Any tenderness usually subsides within a day or two.
Temporary swelling, redness, bruising or small lumps may occur and typically resolve within a few days. Serious complications are rare when treatment is performed by an experienced injector. We will review your medical history to ensure you are a suitable candidate and provide aftercare instructions to minimize risks.
Healthy adults who desire fuller lips, improved symmetry or better definition are ideal candidates. You should not have active oral infections, uncontrolled autoimmune conditions, or be pregnant or breastfeeding. We conduct a thorough consultation to determine if lip fillers are right for you.
After a consultation, your injector will cleanse your lips and apply numbing cream. The injections themselves take only a few minutes. We will show you your results and make adjustments if necessary. You can resume most daily activities immediately, although we recommend avoiding intense exercise and heat for 48 hours.
Use cold compresses to reduce swelling, avoid touching or pressing your lips, and stay hydrated. For at least 24 hours, avoid alcohol, blood thinners and strenuous exercise. Protect your lips with SPF and avoid direct sun or heat for 48 hours. If you notice any severe swelling, unusual discoloration or persistent lumps, contact us promptly.
Yes. Because we use hyaluronic acid fillers, the results can be reversed with an enzyme called hyaluronidase, which dissolves the filler. Adjustments are rarely necessary when injections are performed by a skilled professional, but having a reversible option provides added reassurance.
A lip flip uses a small amount of Botox to relax the muscles around the mouth, subtly turning the upper lip outward to create the appearance of fuller lips. Lip fillers physically add volume using HA gel. Both treatments can be combined for enhanced results; our injectors will help you decide which option suits your goals.
During your consultation, we’ll discuss your aesthetic preferences and facial proportions. Popular styles include classic fullness (balanced upper and lower lips), defined Cupid’s bow, cherry lips (central fullness) and Russian doll (height-focused). Our injectors will recommend shapes that complement your features while achieving your desired look.
