About Dry Lips

Most people want to maintain soft, luscious, and supple lips. They should ideally glisten and look perfectly hydrated. But you may develop cracked, dull, or dry lips for several reasons, such as cold or dry weather, excessive sun exposure, and dehydration. Over time, most people suffer from dry lips because of the age-related loss of hyaluronic acid from the lips. As you grow older, your body’s ability to maintain hyaluronic acid is compromised, making your lips look dry and thin. Our cosmetic providers carefully examine your dry lips and recommend the ideal treatments to restore youthful hydration and fullness to your lips.

Dermal Fillers

Dermal fillers are cosmetic injections that add volume under your skin. We provide dermal fillers made of synthetic hyaluronic acid, such as Restylane, Juvéderm, Versa, and RHA fillers. Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring gel that makes your skin look fuller and more voluminous. Hyaluronic acid can bind up to 1,000x its own weight in water, a property that allows your skin to maintain moisture and appear supple. The loss of hyaluronic acid due to age leads to thin, dry, and cracked lips.

Each dermal filler has a unique consistency and formula, so each treatment plan must be personalized. Our cosmetic providers carefully examine your lips and recommend the ideal fillers to enhance your lip volume, smoothen fine lines and wrinkles, and make your lips look hydrated. We can also use dermal fillers to sculpt your lip contours, helping you achieve a fuller and more shapely pair of lips. The results appear immediately and last for 6+ months, depending on the chosen filler.

HydraFacial

HydraFacial is a groundbreaking skin rejuvenation treatment that exfoliates, extracts, and hydrates your skin, making your facial skin look smoother and more radiant. The HydraFacial treatment can be modified with Lip Perk, which involves applying a specialized lip replenishing serum to your lips. The lip serum gently exfoliates the uppermost layers of your skin, making your dry lips look smoother and plumper. The lip replenishing serum also hydrates your lips, making them look bright and red.

The HydraFacial Lip Perk serum consists of aloe barbadensis leaf extracts, paeonia albiflora root extracts, and vitamins A, C, and E. Aloe barbadensis leaf extracts restore suppleness to your lips and reduce flakiness, making your lips look smoother. Paeonia albiflora root extracts re-plump your lips. And vitamins A, C, and E increase the hydration level of your lips and infuse them with antioxidant properties, making your lips look plump and hydrated.
