Lip Filler in Winnipeg, at First Glance

What is Lip Filler aka Lip Filler Injections?

Lip Fillers, also called Lip Injections, are Hyaluronic Acid (HA) dermal filler injections. HA fillers are volumizers which help to create fuller, softer, plumper or more defined lips. HA Fillers can also smooth fine lines and wrinkles around the mouth and are one of the most popular aesthetic treatments due to their ability to provide a beautiful, long lasting, natural results.

Like lines and wrinkles on the face, thin lips are another key sign of facial aging that contributes to a less youthful appearance. Whether you have thin lips, an uneven lip shape, lip lines, or loss of volume, Lip Fillers can help to correct this. With high performance, long-lasting Lip Fillers brands such as Juvéderm®, Restylane®, and Revanesse®, you can add, restore, and maintain lip volume, hydration, and fullness

Lip Filler is an Advanced Medical Treatment that should only be performed by an Expert Nurse Injector in a Fully Accredited Medical Clinic. Many veins, arteries, and nerves in the face make it extremely important to be treated by a licensed medical professional in a Fully Accredited Medical Facility, with a Physician onsite. Working with an Injector without a physician onsite in a non-accredited medical facility can lead to severe, unnecessary, and irreversible damage to your face. Ask your injector which product they use for Lip Filler treatments, as many uncertified or unlicensed injectors who work in non-medical facilities are known to work with unregulated, toxic, and dangerous facial deforming products. At The First Glance, we only use top-rated, top-performing, and safest injectable products on the market.

Key Benefits of Lip Filler

Enhances Natural Shape: Lip Fillers can enhance the natural shape and size of the lips, making them look more attractive and youthful. This is especially beneficial for people who have thin lips or have experienced volume loss due to aging.
Increases Lip Volume: Lip Fillers increase lip volume, creating a fuller and more attractive look. This can be particularly beneficial for people who want to enhance their natural lip shape or reverse volume loss due to aging.
Defines Lip Borders: Lip Fillers can define the borders of the lips, creating a more symmetrical and attractive appearance. This can be especially beneficial for people with naturally thin lips or whose lips have become less defined due to aging.
Reduces Wrinkles: Lip Fillers can reduce the appearance of wrinkles around the mouth, creating a smoother and more youthful look. This can be especially beneficial for people with deep lines around their lips due to aging or sun damage.
Natural Results: Lip Fillers can create a more natural look, as they blend in beautifully with the natural shape and size of the lips. This can be particularly beneficial for people who want to enhance their lips without looking like they have had any work done.

Advanced Specialized Training

Lip Filler is an Advanced Medical Treatment that should only be performed by an Expert Nurse Injector or a Board Certified Facial Plastic Surgeon in a Fully Accredited Medical Clinic.

Several factors contribute to thin lips. Some of the causes include:

01. Family Genetics: Our DNA. Some of us were simply born with small lips.

02. Ageing: Collagen and elastin breaks down due to the natural ageing process. As we age, our lips become thinner and smaller.

03. Alcohol and Smoking: Various lifestyle patterns can contribute to loss of volume, lip lines, and wrinkles.

04. Sun Damage: Going outside without sun protection on your lips.

There are a variety of dermal fillers to choose from. All are made with Hyaluronic Acid, which is a very safe and naturally occurring substance in the skin. Hyaluronic Acid helps the skin retain moisture, delivers nutrients, creates softness, and adds volume. The choice of dermal filler for your treatment is determined by the length of time the filler lasts, the cost per syringe, and the desired look you’d like to achieve. Most of our patients prefer soft, hydrated, natural results. They are rarely interested in the Kardashian/Jenner effect. Our expert injectors at The First Glance specialize in full, natural results.

Most of the Juvéderm®, Restylane®, and Teosyal® products tend to last around 6 to 12 months when injected in the lips. Filler in the lips metabolizes much faster than other areas of the face because we are eating, talking, and constantly moving our lips. Some of the more common Lip Fillers on the market today include Juvéderm Ultra®, Juvéderm Volbella®, Teoysal Kiss®, and Restylane Kysse®.

On the day of your Lip Filler treatment, your expert injector will meet you in a private treatment room to discuss your aesthetic goals in detail. From there, your injector will assess your lips to determine what type of filler is best to achieve your desired aesthetic results. Before your Lip Injections begin, your skin will be cleansed at the injection sites to remove any makeup or oil on the surface of your skin (very important). Now that your skin is clean, your injector is ready to introduce the Lip Filler with a cannula or an ultra-fine needle (which may feel like a light pinch). A cannula is a tiny tube that distributes the dermal filler. Some injectors prefer to use a cannula to reduce the risk of bruising. All of the injectors at The First Glance are experts in both methods (needle and cannula). Your injector will determine which technique is best for your treatment.

Your injector will go slowly, adding your filler in stages until they reach your desired aesthetic results. Your injector may also mold the filler with their fingers after it’s injected to shape it into place before it fully sets. It’s important to ice the area after your treatment to reduce swelling and bruising.

Your treatment will take about 15 to 30 minutes.

Your Lip Filler treatment can be performed at the same time as other injectable treatments such as Botox, Jawline Slimming, and Under Eye Filler.
