Renew your lips naturally with skillfully applied injections
Thin lips can detract from the beautiful balance and proportion of your face. They can also betray your age, as structural supports within the lip tissues may become eroded. You may notice that your lips are no longer as defined as they once were and that lines and creases are more prominent than ever before. So, we at New U Women’s Clinic and Aesthetics in Kennewick and Yakima, prioritize lip enhancement with fillers and other types of products, knowing what a powerful feature and attribute this part of the face can be at conveying our personal “brand” to the world. Tri-Cities area patients also appreciate that, with our team’s considerable skill and experience, their results look like a renewed version of themselves, not like somebody else or like their treated lips “belong on a duck.” Yes, no duck pouts here!

How do lip fillers work?
Unlike other fillers, these products are introduced to the deflated tissues of or around the pout via small syringes. Once injected precisely into the treatment sites, they give an instant volume boost and soften creases.
So, injections are not just to make my lips look bigger?
Yes, that’s right. Lip injections are more versatile than you may think. In addition to boosting a pout that was always a little too small or that has deflated over time, our providers can apply filler to:
- Correct imbalanced or uneven lips
- Lift saggy corners of the mouth
- Add definition to the Cupid’s bow at the center of the upper lip
- Restore definition to the lip’s borders
- Soften lines that the likes of smoking or the effects of chronic sun damage may cause
Do I need to prepare for treatment?
All treatments at our office in Kennewick, WA, have special considerations, however minimal they may be. For lip injections, we may advise that you stop taking NSAIDs (like ibuprofen) in the days leading up to your appointment. It’s also recommended to refrain from drinking alcohol in preparation for your treatment. Any products or medications that may be avoided are largely associated with a risk of adverse side effects like swelling and bruising. So, be sure to follow any instructions tailored to your needs.
Will the injections hurt?
Our priority is to ensure the best possible experience at every step of the treatment process. While the lips can be a particularly sensitive area, we use special products such as topical numbing creams to ensure treatment is not painful. Some of our fillers are also formulated with lidocaine to support your comfort. It’s not unusual to experience a little tenderness in the days following treatment, which can be managed by applying a cold compress or ice pack.
Frequently Asked Questions About Lip Fillers
What kind of results can I expect with lip fillers?
As you age, your lips may lose volume and wrinkles may form, making you look older than your real age. While aging is inevitable, it doesn’t have to define your appearance and confidence. Are you concerned with your thin or aged lips? Choose lip fillers!
They can:
- Volumize and plump lips
- Provide definition
- Enhance lip shape and symmetry
- Smooth lip lines
Our approach is not a one-size-fits-all. We’ll examine your lips and discuss your goals to create a treatment plan tailored to your unique needs. We want the results to look and feel yours authentically from the onset.
Will my lips look overfilled?
At New U Women’s Clinic & Aesthetics, we specialize in delivering natural-looking results that enhance your beauty, not change it. Our aesthetician takes a conservative approach, administering precise amounts of the filler and adding more if necessary. After your treatment, your lips will look naturally refreshed, never overfilled.
Your aesthetician will discuss your goals before treatment and ensure the final look fits your face. You stay in control of how subtle or full you want your lips to appear.
How long will the results last?
Depending on the type, most lip fillers last 6 – 12 months. Your body gradually absorbs the filler over time. The duration of your results also depends on your metabolism and lifestyle factors. Many people schedule touch-ups to maintain their results.
How long is a lip filler appointment?
Appointments are usually quick. Most take about 30 – 45 minutes. This includes a consultation, numbing, and the injections. You can get back to your day soon after the visit.
Should I expect downtime after my lip filler appointment in Kennewick?
Downtime is minimal. Most people return to regular activities the same day. You may have mild swelling or tenderness for a few days. This is normal and fades as the filler settles.
What are the aftercare tips after lip filler treatment?
Applying a cold compress helps manage swelling and bruising. Keep the area clean and avoid massaging your lips for the first 24 hours. Skip intense workouts, alcohol, and very salty foods for the rest of the day.
Do my lips swell after filler treatment?
Yes! It’s normal for your lips to swell after dermal filler treatment. This is usually at its worst the first 2 – 3 days after the procedure. Some people also see minor bruises near the injection points. However, you can easily disguise bruising with lipstick.
Does insurance cover lip filler treatment?
No! Dermal fillers are considered elective, so your insurance will unlikely cover the procedure. We’ll discuss payment options available to make your procedure affordable.
