How Much Lip Filler Do You Need?
A half syringe of lip filler will give you a subtle result, which is great if you want your lips to be more natural-looking, to correct minor asymmetry or to add hydration. A full syringe will provide a more full and noticeable result, but won’t leave you with overfilled lips.
Results
The results of injectable lip treatments typically become noticeable almost immediately after your procedure. Patients often experience enhanced volume and shape in their lips right away. However, it's essential to note that this initial effect isn't the final result, which may take a few days to 14 days for final results.
