Lip volume and contours play a dramatic role in one’s facial aesthetic. For most of history, how this facial feature looked was up to the randomness of genetics. Lip fillers put patients back in control of how they look. Our suite of injectable lip fillers can help patients from across Connecticut reconnect with their best selves.
Lip fillers are specially formulated hyaluronic acid (HA) injectables that elevate the lips’ appearance. HA naturally occurs in the body, serving as a humectant. This means it draws and retains water, promoting skin hydration. Each of our HA lip fillers is designed with patient safety at the forefront while also delivering natural-looking, long-lasting results.
Patients can use lip fillers to:
A lip filler session is quick, mild, and convenient. Most patients will only need about 30 minutes for a treatment, and they can see same-day benefits. Many patients come by during a lunch break and then head out back to enjoy the rest of their day with their new look.
A typical visit involves three key elements:
When injected by a skilled professional, lip fillers deliver several key benefits, including:
Lip fillers can offer patients a safe, noninvasive way to sculpt beautiful, voluminous lips. However, we still take the time to ensure the treatment is right for you before proceeding. We consult extensively with you, going over your goals, medical history, and any other concerns. From there, we can build a treatment plan that emphasizes a balance of safety and results. Lip fillers can prove ideal for patients at any stage of adulthood, empowering them to achieve a look that feels ideal.
One key advantage of lip fillers is how little recovery is involved. Generally, patients will have no downtime and only minimal limitations to their routine. For example, you will want to avoid strenuous physical activity for a couple of days. You may have some mild swelling and bruising at the injection site. So some patients do like to take a day off to let it fade. Otherwise, you will not need to take any downtime.
In short, virtually right away. Keep in mind that any swelling may influence the overall volume of your lips. So, if they look a bit bigger than you would have preferred, know that the swelling will soon go away. Then, they will be right at the volume you wanted. Additionally, the filler material will gradually integrate into your tissues, which will further enhance the natural look to your results.

Additionally, patient lifestyle factors can influence how long you see results. Some ways to promote longer-lasting lip filler results include:
