Lip Fillers

Introduction

Introduction to Lip Fillers

Whether volume loss in the lips is due to genetic factors or natural aging, our cutting-edge lip fillers can help restore a beautiful, vibrant smile. At The Block-Wheeler Clinic in San Francisco, California, Dr. Block-Wheeler and his team provide access to today’s top injectables, engineered to boost lip hydration, suppleness, and radiance seamlessly.

What Are Lip Fillers?

Full, shapely, symmetrical lips are often considered a sign of beauty, health, and youthfulness. Over time, the depletion of compounds like collagen, hyaluronic acid, and elastin gradually leads to deflation of the lips, vertical lip lines, and a loss of lip border definition. Lip fillers not only enhance the shape and size of the lips, but also sharpen the Cupid’s bow and smooth away creases. Most lip fillers are formulated with hyaluronic acid, a biocompatible ingredient that maximizes moisture in the skin. At The Block-Wheeler Clinic in San Francisco, our team focuses on safety, customization, and natural, subtle results.

What’s the First Step?

To get started on the road to a more youthful appearance with lip fillers, you will first attend a private consultation with Dr. Block-Wheeler and his team in San Francisco, California. During this first visit, the doctor will review your medical history and any allergies and answer all of your questions, going over the risks, downtime, and costs associated with the procedure. Once your treatment date has been booked, we will provide a few guidelines to follow before your appointment to help make your cosmetic journey rewarding and stress-free.

What to Expect on the Day of a Lip Filler Treatment

On the day of your procedure, which can often be performed during the same consultation, we will answer any last-minute questions and briefly review your care plan. Next, we will apply a topical anesthetic to the lips to make sure that your session is pain-free and relaxing. After the anesthetic has had time to take effect, we will mark your injection sites according to your customized treatment plan. Many lip fillers contain lidocaine, which further promotes your peace of mind and well-being. We will then strategically administer your lip filler to boost lip volume and smooth away creases and lines.

Lip Filler Recovery

Downtime after lip filler injections is minimal, and there are few restrictions. However, it is common to notice minor swelling, puffiness, firmness, and bruising in the lips, symptoms that can persist for several days. You will be able to resume your normal activities right away, with support from over-the-counter painkillers if needed. As a precaution, avoid strenuous workouts for 24 to 48 hours and avoid activities that could increase blood flow to the lips, such as a massage or a facial.
