Lip Fillers Calgary

Lip fillers are injectable cosmetic treatments used to enhance the appearance of lips by adding plumpness and volume. They are typically made up of hyaluronic acid-based substances. Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring sugar molecule that binds to water molecules in our skin, helping it stay hydrated and youthful looking.

Unlike other types of facial fillers, hyaluronic acid lip fillers do not contain any animal products or allergens, so they tend to be much safer for patients with sensitive skin conditions like eczema or rosacea.

The procedure involves injecting a special type of filler into specific areas around the mouth to add definition and create more volume. The process usually takes less than 30 minutes and produces immediate results.

The lip fillers will last between 6 months and 1 year depending on the individual’s metabolism rate.

Generally speaking, it is normal to experience some discomfort during the lip filler treatment. However, many people find that lip fillers are relatively pain-free due to the numbing agents used before injection.

In terms of aftercare from the treatment itself, there may be some temporary inflammation or redness—both due to swelling post-injection—which usually subsides within 24 hours with minimal soreness at worst.

At New Skin YYC, the average price for lip filler treatments ranges from $400 to $750, depending on the amount of product used and desired enhancement. A half syringe of lip filler costs $400, which is ideal for subtle definition or a natural plump. A full syringe is priced at $750, offering more volume for a fuller pout. For clients seeking a more dramatic result, two syringes in the same appointment are available for $1450. All treatments are performed by licensed nurse injectors using Health Canada-approved hyaluronic acid-based fillers, with full Alberta Health Services (AHS) compliance to ensure safety and clinical precision.
