Everything you need to know about lip fillers
Fillers are typically used to increase the volume and size of the lips. Collagen or hyaluronic acid-based filler are typical. Collagen works by plumping, while hyaluronic acid works by both plumping but also holding water within the lip for a more natural effect. Let’s start with what they’re not: they are not permanent. They last about three months to a year depending on how quickly your body breaks them down. The type I recommend are made of hyaluronic acid — a sugar, found naturally in the body, that adds temporary volume and definition when injected into lips.
