Lip augmentation with dermal fillers Nashville is a great way to add fullness to your lips for a natural look. Using either a hyaluronic acid filler or a fat transfer, Mayo Clinic-trained, board-certified plastic surgeon Chad Robbins, M.D., F.A.C.S., rejuvenates smiles of men and women in Nashville and Franklin, TN, with soft and supple results.
Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance in the body that gives your skin and lips volume, elasticity and a smooth, plump appearance. However, as you get older, your body loses the ability to retain this important substance, leading to thinning and sagging lips.
A common treatment for aging lips, lip injections Nashville use the safe and effective hyaluronic acid filler Juvederm Ultra XC to increase fullness and enhance your lips with natural-looking results that last. This FDA-approved product features a proprietary XpresHAn Technology that enables the filler to be more fully integrated into the lip, allowing it to give you precise, natural-looking results that won’t appear overdone or unnatural.
This lip enhancement treatment also works to correct marionette lines, smoker’s lines and other wrinkles around the mouth for subtle and long-lasting results that won’t leave an etched-in impression. The patented gel is injected into the lips and surrounding areas with an ultrafine needle for natural-looking results that can last up to one year in most patients.
If you’re ready to accentuate your lips with injectable fillers, call the Nashville and Franklin offices of Dr. Chad Robbins today to schedule a consultation.
During your consultation, our staff will discuss your goals and assess the area of your lips you’re trying to improve. Then, the appropriate Restylane Silk dose will be injected into your lips to give them the shape and fullness you desire.
The procedure typically takes a few minutes and is performed in the comfort of our office, with an in-office numbing agent applied. After the treatment, you can expect redness and swelling, but these side effects are temporary and will subside within a few days.
Before receiving lip injections, you should avoid alcohol, smoking, exercise and sun exposure for at least 24 hours to reduce the possibility of bruising or excessive swelling. If you experience discomfort, take Tylenol to relieve it.
You’ll need to keep your lips clean and moisturized after treatment as they may become slightly chapped and dry. This will help prevent any infections and encourage faster healing after your treatment.
Our highly-trained aesthetician will ensure your treatment is comfortable and that you’re happy with the results. You’ll then leave our office with a more youthful and radiant smile!
In addition to lip injections, we offer other lip enhancement procedures at Papillion Aesthetics. These include a lip lift with a Bullhorn Subnasal Lip Lift, a perioral rhinoplasty (lip reduction), a perioral resurfacing and other treatments that can make your lips more beautiful and youthful.
