Dermal Fillers
Lip Fillers
Hyaluronic acid filler placed in the lip body and vermillion border to refine shape, add volume and restore natural symmetry.
Overview
Modern lip augmentation uses HA fillers calibrated for softness and structure. A measured approach — typically 0.5–1 ml — produces a refined, hydrated lip rather than the overfilled look of past decades. Switzerland's leading injectors emphasize proportion to the rest of the face.
How it works
Cross-linked hyaluronic acid gel is injected into the vermillion border, body and wet-dry junction of the lips. HA binds water, adding volume and hydration while integrating with your own tissue. A skilled injector shapes proportion rather than chasing volume.
Who it's for
- Naturally thin or asymmetric lips seeking refinement
- Age-related lip flattening or loss of border definition
- Patients wanting subtle hydration, not volume (skin boosters may be more appropriate)
Benefits
- +Immediate, visible result
- +Fully reversible with hyaluronidase
- +Improves lip hydration and texture
- +Lasts 9–12 months in the lips
Risks & considerations
- −Swelling and bruising for 24–72 hours
- −Lumps or irregularities (usually resolvable with massage or dissolving)
- −Vascular occlusion — rare but serious; only see physicians experienced with hyaluronidase
Recovery
Expect 48–72 hours of swelling; final result visible at 2 weeks. Avoid strenuous exercise, alcohol and heat for 24 hours.
Typical price in Switzerland
CHF 450 – 900 per syringe. Swiss pricing reflects physician-only administration and top-tier product selection. Consultations are typically CHF 100–200, often deducted from a booked treatment.
Frequently asked
- Will it look natural?
- Yes — when conservatively dosed. Top injectors prioritize lip shape and ratio rather than maximum volume.
- How long does it last?
- Typically 9–12 months. Lips metabolize HA faster than other facial areas.
