Hyaluronic acid lip filler in Medellín

Hyaluronic acid lip filler improves hydration, defines the contour and adds subtle volume, always in proportion to your face. It's a good option when lips look thinner over the years or during menopause, or when fine lines appear around them, the so-called barcode lines.

Dr. Olga Gómez Montoya, physician and surgeon from the University of Antioquia, works with Juvéderm®, Restylane®, Stylage® and Croma®, in conservative amounts so your lips look like yours, never overdone.

What it is

How does hyaluronic acid work in the lips?

Hyaluronic acid is a substance your body produces naturally and that retains water. Applied to the lips with medical technique, it improves hydration, defines the contour and adds subtle volume. Over time the body reabsorbs it and, if necessary, it can be dissolved with hyaluronidase: it is a reversible treatment.

Not all lips need the same thing

Hydration: for dry or dull lips.
Contouring: to define the border without adding volume.
Filler: for thin lips or lips that have lost volume.

If you're looking for a very subtle change without filler, sometimes a lip flip with botulinum toxin is enough. We don't use biostimulators in the lips: hyaluronic acid is the indicated product because it is flexible and reversible.

Is lip filler right for me?

It's for you if…

You feel your lips look thinner or have lost their shape over time or during menopause.
Your lips look dry or you notice fine lines around them.
You want a more defined contour or to balance an asymmetry.
You want to enhance them without them looking exaggerated or "done."

It's not the right time if…

You are pregnant or breastfeeding.
You have herpes or an active infection in the area. If you often get cold sores, let us know so we can take precautions.

Treatment goals

What can we improve in the lips?

Each goal is defined during the assessment based on your anatomy, your age and what you want to feel when you look in the mirror.

Lip hydration

Restores softness and suppleness to dry or dull lips, without changing their size.

Lip contouring

Defines the lip border for a crisper shape, without adding volume.

Thin lips

Restores the volume lost over the years or during menopause, in proportion to your face.

Our approach

Your lips, at their best

With lips, the goal is always for them to look like yours: hydrated, harmonious and natural. We don't follow trends or standard measurements; we study your proportions, your smile and your expression to define small adjustments that bring balance.

Dr. Olga Gómez explains honestly what is realistic for you and supports you at every stage, without exaggerated promises or rushed decisions.

After lip filler

Gently apply cold compresses during the first few hours.
Don't wear lip makeup on the first day, and don't press or massage the area.
For 24 to 48 hours, avoid intense exercise, saunas, strong heat and alcohol.
Message us immediately if you notice intense pain or pale or purple skin.

“Beauty isn't forced or exaggerated. It is cared for, understood and accompanied.” — Dr. Olga Gómez Montoya

Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions about lip filler

What's the difference between lip contouring and lip filler?

Contouring defines the lip border to give it a crisper shape, with almost no added volume. Filler adds volume within the lip. They are often combined in small amounts, depending on what your lips need.

How long does lip swelling last?

It's normal for lips to look swollen for 2 to 3 days, and sometimes small bruises appear that go away on their own. The final result is visible around 15 days, once the product settles. If the swelling increases, it hurts a lot or the skin changes color, message us immediately.

Can I get lip filler after 50?

Yes. Over the years and during menopause, lips lose hydration and volume and look thinner. After 50 we usually focus more on hydration and contouring than on volume, so they look fresh and in harmony with your face, never exaggerated.

What are barcode lines and how are they treated?

They are the fine vertical lines around the mouth, especially on the upper lip. They appear due to collagen loss, sun, facial movement and, sometimes, smoking. They are treated with very fluid hyaluronic acid and, depending on the case, with CO2 laser or microdoses of botulinum toxin.

Will they look exaggerated?

That's not our approach. We work with precise amounts and progressively so your lips look hydrated and harmonious, in proportion to your face. If you'd like a little more later on, it can always be added.

Which hyaluronic acid is used in the lips?

We work with Juvéderm®, Restylane®, Stylage® and Croma®, all INVIMA-registered. For the lips, soft and flexible products are chosen that move naturally with the mouth. More about the product on injectable hyaluronic acid.

Does lip filler hurt?

We apply topical anesthesia before the procedure and many products include an anesthetic. Most patients describe it as mild, tolerable discomfort.

How long does hyaluronic acid last in the lips?

Approximately 6 to 12 months, depending on the product and your metabolism. Lips move a lot, so it usually lasts less than in other areas. With periodic maintenance, the result is preserved naturally.

Can it be reversed if I don't like it?

Yes. Hyaluronic acid can be dissolved with an enzyme called hyaluronidase, always under medical judgment. Even so, our goal is for you to feel like yourself from the very first moment.

How much does lip filler cost in Medellín?

The cost depends on what your lips really need and the amount of product, and that is defined during the assessment so we don't charge you more or less than necessary. Message us ASSESSMENT.
