Lip Filler
Whether you are seeking subtle definition, looking to restore youthful fullness, or aiming to balance naturally thin lips, lip filler treatments offer a customizable solution for your aesthetic goals. At RENEW in Melbourne, FL, we approach lip augmentation as a way to create proportion with precision.
Led by board-certified cosmetic surgeon Dr. King Kim, our practice focuses on enhancing your natural beauty rather than creating an overdone appearance. By utilizing premium, FDA-approved hyaluronic acid fillers, we deliver natural-looking results that integrate seamlessly with your overall facial harmony.
Restores lip volume, smooths fine lines around the mouth, creates improved symmetry, and enhances lip shape.
Uses FDA-approved products containing hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance that retains moisture and softness.
Performed in-office using topical numbing cream for minimal discomfort and precise injections.
Requires minimal downtime, allowing most patients to return to normal activities immediately.
A lip filler procedure involves strategically placing dermal fillers into targeted areas of the lips to add volume, create subtle definition, and improve symmetry. Unlike lip implants or fat transfer, which offer permanent or surgical approaches to lip enhancement, hyaluronic acid fillers provide a versatile, low-risk, and temporary way to refine your profile.
During treatment, products such as Juvéderm Ultra XC, Juvéderm Volbella, or Restylane Silk are selected to match your desired look. Hyaluronic acid binds water within the tissue, giving the lips a plush, soft texture that feels entirely natural. For patients seeking subtle structural movement without added volume, alternatives such as a lip flip or a surgical lip lift can also be discussed during your consultation.
Your lip augmentation at RENEW is designed for maximum comfort and natural balance. A high-strength topical numbing cream is applied prior to injection to ensure minimal discomfort throughout the session.
Using ultra-fine needles or micro-cannulas, Dr. Kim places precise injections along the vermilion border and lip body to sculpt your ideal lip shape. The entire procedure takes approximately 15 to 30 minutes. Once completed, a cold compress or ice pack is applied to soothe the injection sites, and you are free to resume your day.

Most healthy adults seeking subtle or fuller lip volume are good candidates for lip fillers. Ideal patients maintain realistic expectations, understand that fillers do not yield permanent results, and wish to enhance their natural shape.
During your consultation, Dr. Kim will review your medical history. If you have a history of cold sores, preventive medication may be recommended prior to your appointment to protect the injection sites during healing.
Recovery from lip injections is quick and straightforward. You may experience mild swelling, light bruising, or slight tenderness around the mouth, which typically peaks within the first 24 to 48 hours.
Post-Care Recommendations:
While initial results are visible immediately, your final lip filler results settle into place over 1 to 2 weeks as mild swelling subsides. Your lips will feel soft, hydrated, and natural to the touch.
Most lip fillers maintain their fuller volume and shape for 6 to 12 months. A quick follow-up appointment or periodic touch-up sessions allow you to maintain your customized results effortlessly.

Most hyaluronic acid lip fillers maintain volume and shape for 6 to 12 months, depending on your metabolism and the specific formula used.
Discomfort is minimal. We apply a strong topical numbing cream before the procedure, and most fillers contain lidocaine to keep you comfortable throughout the injection process.
Lip fillers add physical volume and shape using hyaluronic acid gel. A lip flip uses a small amount of neurotoxin to relax the muscle above the upper lip, allowing it to roll slightly outward for a fuller appearance without adding extra volume.
Yes. Hyaluronic acid fillers can be quickly and safely dissolved using an enzyme called hyaluronidase if adjustments are needed.
It is best to wait 24 hours after your procedure before applying makeup or lip balm to allow the microscopic injection sites to close fully.
