The Experience: Hydrate and restore volume with a full or partial syringe of dermal filler and/or lip flip. At CONTŌR our experienced providers prioritize natural lips that never look fake, ducky, or overfilled.
Lip enhancement at CONTŌR uses FDA-approved hyaluronic acid (HA) dermal fillers to hydrate, volumize, and enhance the shape of your lips. Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance in the body that attracts and retains moisture, creating soft, hydrated lips. Our approach focuses on enhancing your lips’ natural architecture by adding subtle volume, improving symmetry, and defining shape, without creating an overdone or “ducky” appearance.
At CONTŌR, we prioritize balance and proportion, customizing every treatment to complement your unique facial features and aesthetic goals.
Lip filler can enhance multiple aspects of your lips, including:
Every lip enhancement treatment at CONTŌR is customized based on your natural lip anatomy, facial structure, and personal aesthetic goals.
A lip flip uses a small amount of neuromodulator injected into the upper lip muscle to relax it slightly, causing the lip to gently “flip” outward. This creates the appearance of a fuller upper lip without adding volume. Results are subtle and typically last 6 to 8 weeks.
Lip filler uses hyaluronic acid to add volume, hydration, and definition to the lips. Results are longer-lasting, typically 9 to 12 months.
The amount of filler needed depends on your starting point, desired results, and natural lip anatomy. At CONTŌR, we typically offer:
During your consultation, your provider will assess your lips and recommend the appropriate amount to achieve your goals. We prioritize conservative, gradual enhancement over dramatic overnight changes.
You’ll see results immediately after your lip filler treatment. However, mild to moderate swelling is common and typically peaks within the first 24 to 48 hours, then gradually subsides over 3 to 7 days. Your final result settles around 10 to 14 days after treatment.
Lip filler results typically last 9 to 12 months, though this varies based on your metabolism and lifestyle, the type of filler used, and whether this is your first time or a maintenance treatment.
Most guests experience minimal discomfort. At CONTŌR, we use a prescription-strength topical numbing cream before your treatment. Additionally, most lip fillers contain lidocaine (a local anesthetic) within the product itself for added comfort during injection.
Many describe the sensation as mild pressure or a slight pinch. Some tenderness and soreness are normal for 24 to 48 hours after treatment but fade quickly.
Lip filler has minimal downtime, but swelling and potential bruising are more common with lip treatments than other areas of the face.
Common side effects include:
Most guests resume normal activities immediately, though you may want to plan your treatment at least 1 to 2 weeks before any important events to allow for full settling.
We completely understand. That’s why at CONTŌR we prioritize long-term outcomes over drastic short-term results. Our philosophy centers on micro-enhancements over time; building natural, balanced lips gradually rather than overfilling in one session.
We know prevention is always more effective than correction, and the best results are achieved through conservative, strategic placement that respects your natural lip anatomy. Our experienced providers are trained to enhance, not alter, your features.
If you’re a first-time guest, we often recommend starting conservatively with a half syringe and adding more later if desired. This approach ensures you love your results and never feel overdone.
Please note: individuals who are pregnant or breastfeeding are not suitable candidates for this treatment.
To minimize the risk of bruising or swelling:
To minimize the risk of adverse effects, please avoid treatment if you currently have a cold or have had a vaccination or dental work in the past 2 weeks.
When taken two or more days before treatment, Arnica and Bromelain can reduce bruising. Always consult your primary physician before taking any new supplements.
Redness, swelling, and occasional bruising are common side effects of lip filler but usually resolve within 3 to 7 days. A light amount of makeup can be applied the same day. Tylenol is safe for any soreness.
Helpful tips for managing swelling:
Yes. The hyaluronic acid-based fillers we use are fully reversible. If needed, a specialized enzyme can be administered to safely dissolve the filler and return your lips to their natural baseline. Our priority is achieving results you feel confident in, and we’re here to guide you every step of the way.
Yes. At CONTŌR, we use a range of FDA-approved hyaluronic acid fillers, each with unique properties:
Your provider will select the best product for your specific goals, lip anatomy, and desired outcome. Sometimes we use a combination of different fillers in one treatment to achieve optimal results.
When performed by experienced, medically trained providers, lip filler should look smooth, balanced, and natural, never overdone. At CONTŌR, we specialize in natural-looking lip filler designed to enhance your features, not change them.
Achieving the best natural lip filler results comes down to a thoughtful, individualized approach: respecting your unique lip anatomy and facial proportions, building volume gradually, and using precise product selection and placement techniques.
If you’re looking for natural lip filler in NYC, our focus is always on subtle, refined enhancements creating lips that look like a more polished version of your natural self, never overfilled or artificial.
There’s no “right” age to start lip filler. Some guests come to us in their early 20s or 30s seeking subtle enhancement and definition, while others don’t start until their 40s, 50s, or beyond when they begin noticing volume loss from aging.
During your consultation at CONTŌR, our providers will assess your lips and help determine if and how lip filler can help you achieve your aesthetic goals.
Please note: regardless of parental consent, we do not treat minors (17 years and under).
Unfortunately, this treatment is not suitable for pregnant or breastfeeding women. After your pregnancy, our team would love to help you as soon as you’re ready.
Pricing for lip enhancements at CONTŌR:
The amount you need depends on your starting point and desired results. During your personalized consultation, your provider will recommend a treatment plan and review transparent pricing to help you make an informed decision.
Most dermal fillers are made up of hyaluronic acid, but products designed specifically for lips tend to have properties that create softer, more flexible results suited to the constant movement of the mouth.
The lips are more vascular (have more blood vessels) and mobile than other facial areas, so:
This is why working with experienced providers who specialize in lip enhancement, like the team at CONTŌR, is essential.
Yes. Lip filler works well in combination with other aesthetic treatments, including lip flip (neuromodulator) for subtle upper lip enhancement, facial balancing with dermal filler (chin, jawline, cheeks) for overall facial harmony, and skin treatments like microneedling, peels, or lasers. At CONTŌR, we take a full-face approach to facial aesthetics so every treatment works together to enhance your natural beauty.
Most guests return for lip filler touch-ups every 12 to 14 months to maintain volume.
Some guests prefer to let their filler fully dissolve between treatments, while others schedule regular touch-ups before results fade completely in order to help build volume. Your provider will help you develop a maintenance schedule that aligns with your goals and lifestyle.
When performed by licensed, medically trained providers, lip filler is safe and well tolerated. However, as with any injectable treatment, temporary side effects and rare complications can occur.
Common, temporary side effects include swelling, redness, bruising, transient lumps, or asymmetry (typically resolves as swelling subsides).
Rare complications include prolonged swelling or lumps, vascular occlusion (blocked blood vessel, extremely rare but serious), allergic reaction, and infection.
At CONTŌR, our experienced medical professionals are trained to minimize risks through proper technique, thoughtful product selection, and careful pre-treatment assessment. We also provide detailed aftercare instructions to ensure optimal healing.
