Cosmetic Fillers
REFRESH MD’s lip augmentation treatments use injectable lip fillers to provide pleasing results in as little as 30 minutes. Anaesthesia is typically not necessary for the procedure because the filler usually includes a topical anaesthetic. REFRESH MD uses cosmetic fillers that are not extracted from animals, so there is no risk of allergic reactions, and no need for pre-testing.

The results with cosmetic lip fillers are temporary because the body eventually breaks down and absorbs the filler. The duration of results varies from person to person, but the average is generally four to six months. For Individuals considering permanent lip augmentation, REFRESH MD recommends using injectable lip fillers first to see if implants would provide the desired cosmetic benefit.

Depending on your lifestyle and your goals, your REFRESH MD doctor can arrange a maintenance schedule for repeat treatments. The procedure is usually done at six weeks apart for two treatments and then the touch ups are done at four to eight month intervals depending on your age group and the degree of results you’re seeking.

The nice thing about these products is that you can replenish your lip lines whenever you feel the need. Unlike permanent implants, REFRESH MD uses a line-up of cosmetic fillers which always leave you a choice of options when the effective treatment has worn off. A touch up can be performed any time you would like after the previous treatment.
