How Much Filler for Lips

  Hi and thank you for your question! Your lips are naturally on the the fuller side, so you won't need large amount of fillers. In general, for lips I always recommend a more conservative approach and I rarely do more than 1 cc of filler for lips within one visit and I always advise my patients to allow the treatment to settle a make sure they get used to it and then if needed, I will do more filler. For lips, make sure to have only hyaluronic acid fillers such as Juvederm (Ultra Plus, Volbella or Voluma) or Restylane (Lyft, Kysse). I hope it helps and good luck!
