Lip fillers are one of the most popular aesthetic treatments today. From subtle hydration to plumper lips, they’ve become a go-to option for enhancing natural beauty. Yet, there are still plenty of myths and misconceptions that can leave patients nervous or unsure about whether fillers are right for them.
At New Blossom, our priority is delivering results that look natural, balanced, and uniquely suited to your features. Below, we break down the most common FAQs and myths about lip fillers, what you can expect during treatment, and how we ensure you walk away feeling confident—not overdone.
FAQs About Lip Fillers
1. What exactly are lip fillers?
Lip fillers are injectable treatments—most often made with hyaluronic acid (HA), a substance naturally found in your body. HA attracts and holds water, adding volume and hydration to the lips while keeping the results soft and natural-looking.
2. How long do lip fillers last?
On average, results last 6 to 12 months, depending on your metabolism, lifestyle, and the type of filler used. Many patients schedule touch-ups twice a year to maintain their ideal look.
3. Is the procedure painful?
Discomfort is minimal. At New Blossom, we use a combination of numbing cream and advanced techniques to ensure the process is quick and comfortable. Most patients describe it as a small pinch or pressure.
4. How long is recovery time?
Downtime is very minimal. You may experience mild swelling or bruising for the first few days, but this usually resolves quickly. Most patients return to work or normal activities the same day.
5. Can I still achieve a natural look?
Absolutely. The goal at New Blossom is enhancement, not exaggeration. We carefully assess your facial proportions and desired outcome to deliver a balanced, natural result that complements your features.
Myths About Lip Fillers
Myth 1: “Lip fillers always look fake.”
False. The “overfilled” look often comes from poor technique or too much product. At New Blossom, we focus on subtle enhancement, ensuring your lips look fuller without losing their natural shape.
Myth 2: “Lip fillers stretch your lips permanently.”
False. Once the filler naturally breaks down, your lips return to their baseline shape. Fillers do not cause permanent stretching when done correctly.
Myth 3: “Anyone can inject fillers.”
Dangerous myth. Only trained professionals should perform filler treatments. Our experts at New Blossom are highly skilled in facial anatomy, ensuring safety and artistry in every procedure.
Myth 4: “Once you start, you can’t stop.”
False. Lip fillers are a personal choice. You can maintain them regularly, or you can let them dissolve naturally over time—there’s no obligation to continue.
