What to expect
Hyaluronic-acid gel added to the lips for volume, shape, and hydration. Dissolvable and buildable, most people start with a single syringe.
Results & longevity: 6–12 months before it gradually absorbs. Downtime: Swelling and possible bruising for 2–5 days.
What drives the price
- Product brand (Juvéderm, Restylane, RHA) and how many syringes you use
- Injector artistry and credential, lips are technique-sensitive
- Whether it's a first placement or a top-up
- Metro cost of living
Risks & side effects, honestly
Expect swelling and possible bruising for several days; lumps or asymmetry are usually correctable, and hyaluronic-acid filler can be dissolved. The rare but serious risk is a vascular occlusion (filler affecting a blood vessel), which is why a medically trained injector who keeps hyaluronidase on hand matters.
A whole syringe under ~$400 is a warning sign, either it isn't a full syringe of name-brand HA, or the injector lacks the training to correct a bad result. Cheap lip filler is the #1 source of 'lip filler gone wrong' photos.
