Lip Injections in Phoenix, AZ
What are Lip Injections?
Women are always looking for ways to enhance their lips. Thanks to celebrities around the world, full, perfect lips are being one of the most desired aesthetic features, for women and men alike. One of the first ways that people were able to enhance their lips was through the use of silicone implants, but the results were often unnatural. As dermal fillers have advanced, board-certified plastic surgeons have developed techniques for using them to enhance the lips.
What Lip Injection Treatments are Available at Body by Leverett?
At Body by Leverett, we’re proud to offer the best-in-class injectable products for lip injection treatments. We currently offer the following products:
Restylane®
Restylane® is a hyaluronic acid (HA) filler used for lip injections to restore volume and add subtle fullness. It is ideal for patients looking for a natural-looking enhancement that smooths fine lines around the mouth and enhances lip shape. Restylane® is known for providing soft, flexible results, making it a go-to choice for first-time lip filler patients or those seeking a gentle boost.
Restylane® Kysse
Specifically designed for lip augmentation, Restylane® Kysse uses XpresHAn Technology™ to offer natural-looking fullness while maintaining the lips' flexibility and movement. This unique filler improves both volume and lip texture while enhancing color, allowing patients to enjoy fuller, more kissable lips that still look and feel natural.
Juvéderm®
Juvéderm® is a popular HA-based dermal filler often used for lip injections to provide significant volume and a plump appearance. It delivers smooth, long-lasting results, making it ideal for individuals looking for a more dramatic lip enhancement. Juvéderm® can also help smooth vertical lip lines for a rejuvenated, youthful appearance.
Juvéderm® Volbella®
Juvéderm® Volbella® is a softer, more lightweight filler from the Juvéderm® family, designed for subtle lip enhancement and smoothing of perioral lines, or "smoker's lines." It provides a delicate boost to lip volume and definition, while its refined formula makes it ideal for patients looking for a natural, understated enhancement.
How Much Do Lip Injections Cost?

Benefits of Lip Injections
Lip injections offer many advantages over silicone implants. With lip injections, you can:
- Correct any asymmetry between the lips
- Restore volume that is lost due to aging
- Give the lips a more defined, yet natural shape and size
- Allows for precise enhancement
Good Candidates for Lip Injections
Lip injections benefit younger and older patients. Younger patients often want to improve their lips because the natural shape and size does not balance with their other features, or they just want to have fuller, sexier lips. Older patients want lip injections from Dr. Leverett to restore the fullness of the lips that have diminished due to aging. Enhancing the lips in older patients also helps to soften lines around the lips.
What Can I Expect from My Lip Injections?
Dr. Leverett chooses the dermal fillers that will achieve the desired look that you want for your lips. The fillers are administered with a very small needle, and multiple injections are required to ensure a natural appearance. The lips are sensitive, so if you experience any discomfort associated with the injections, Dr. Leverett will use a topical numbing agent to help you stay relaxed during the treatment.
After the Lip Injections
The longevity of your lip injections depends on the specific dermal fillers that are used, and Dr. Leverett provides these details during your consultation. The area immediately around the injection sites may feel tender for the first 24 to 48 hours. You will need follow-up treatments to maintain your fuller lips.
