Lip filler duration: How long does it last if I get it for the first time on thin lips?
2026.11.13 09:06
I am in my mid-20s and have been frequently looking for dermatologists to manage my chin troubles, but lately I have also developed concerns about my lips.
My lips are naturally thin and my upper lip line is faint, so even when I apply lipstick, it wears off quickly and looks lifeless.
So, I am looking into lip filler treatments for the first time.
I looked it up and found that rather than injecting a large amount, the focus is often on naturally enhancing the lines and volume, and that there might be some swelling for a few days after the procedure.
Since it's my first time, I'm worried it might be too obvious.
① I am curious about the typical duration of lip fillers based on the first time getting them.
② My lips are dry and tend to peel frequently. Is there any care I should take before and after getting lip fillers?
③ I would like to know how many days it takes for the swelling to go down, and if it would be okay to get the injection before the weekend.
I'm asking in advance because I want to make it look natural.

- 03CommentsIt would be easier to understand the explanation regarding sebum control and acne management if you consult by dividing your goals. Please show them the areas currently inflamed, and ask not only about the expected duration of the results but also about the timing of your next appointment and the guidelines for resuming cleansing and makeup.110026.11.13
- 01CommentsI also have a habit of furrowing my brows when concentrating or looking at my smartphone, so I tried it as a preventative measure and was quite satisfied! Even before the creases deepen, slightly relaxing the muscle tension helps correct facial expression habits. Usually, you can feel the tension gradually draining about 1 to 2 weeks after the procedure, and the results seem to last for about 3 to 6 months. Since it is around the eyes, you might be worried about side effects. I recommend asking during your consultation if they thoroughly check your natural eyebrow muscle movements and eyebrow position first, and starting with a small amount to avoid an excessive treatment!2162026.11.11
- 02CommentsI've seen a lot of talk saying that it's better to manage frown lines before they deepen. If it's your first time, I think it would be a good idea to start with a small amount to see if your facial expressions look natural.560026.11.09

- 03CommentsI also got a consultation because I was told I looked tired due to defined lines under my cheekbones when I was expressionless. They told me that nasolabial folds need to be considered in conjunction with cheek hollowing or sagging. Since Botox alone might not solve the problem, make sure to ask about concerns regarding facial movements during your consultation. As someone who had a reality check to see if massages could smooth them out, I think it's faster to just see a professional.4240026.11.04
