What are
lip fillers?

Lip fillers use hyaluronic acid — a naturally occurring substance in the body — to add volume, definition, and shape to the lips. The filler can be placed to enhance the cupid's bow, add body to the upper or lower lip, define the lip border, or restore volume lost with aging.

Dr. Chung approaches lip fillers conservatively, always prioritizing a natural result that suits your facial proportions. Overfilled, unnatural lips are avoided by design.

The procedure includes a topical numbing cream and most HA lip fillers contain lidocaine for added comfort during injection.

How does the
process work?

Dr. Chung enhances lip shape and volume with precision — always prioritizing natural proportions over excessive augmentation.

01
Lip Analysis
Dr. Chung analyzes your natural lip shape, the ratio between upper and lower lip, philtrum length and surrounding facial proportions to design the ideal enhancement.
02
Product Selection
The appropriate hyaluronic acid product — lighter for hydration, firmer for definition — is selected based on your lip anatomy and the result desired.
03
Lip Injection
With ultrafine cannulas and needles, hyaluronic acid is injected with precision — addressing volume, vermillion border definition, cupid's bow and lip projection as planned.
04
Result & Maintenance
Results are visible immediately. Lips last 6–12 months typically. Touch-up sessions maintain the result; filler can be dissolved at any time.

What can be
improved?

Upper lip volume

Enhances a thin upper lip for more balanced, sensual proportions — staying within natural bounds for your face.

Lower lip volume

Augments or balances the lower lip to achieve the ideal 1:1.6 upper-to-lower ratio.

Vermillion border

Defines the lip border for more pronounced, visible lip shape — especially effective for lips that have lost definition.

Cupid's bow

Enhances the cupid's bow shape in the upper lip for a more feminine, classically beautiful lip shape.

Lip projection

Increases forward projection of the lips (from the profile view) for a more sensual, prominent appearance.

Lip hydration

Lighter filler products deeply hydrate and plump thin, dehydrated lips for a naturally fuller appearance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions about
Lip Fillers

Not with a conservative, proportionate approach. Dr. Chung avoids overfilling and focuses on proportion and natural movement. The goal is lips that look like the best version of your own.

A topical numbing cream is applied beforehand and most lip fillers contain lidocaine. Most patients report mild discomfort, not pain.

Typically 6–9 months, as the lips metabolize filler faster than other facial areas. Touch-up treatments maintain results.

Yes. Hyaluronic acid fillers can be dissolved with an enzyme (hyaluronidase) within minutes if desired.

Fillers are temporary and gradual. Implants are permanent surgical insertions. Most patients begin with fillers to establish their preferred look before considering a permanent option.
