Lip filler isn’t about transformation. At BOYD, It’s about subtle enhancement: restoring definition, softness, and proportion that complements your natural features. Patients in Ann Arbor, Birmingham and downtown Detroit trust our experienced team to deliver lip results that are smooth, never overdone, and always in balance with their whole face.
Why BOYD for lip filler?
Lips are one of the most visible — and most overfilled — areas in aesthetic care. That’s why our approach is grounded in restraint, precision, and personalization. Dr. Charles M. Boyd’s background as a facial plastic surgeon shapes our entire philosophy: lip filler should elevate, not overpower.
Patients like you choose BOYD because:
- We specialize in subtle volume and shape correction.
- Each treatment is guided by facial anatomy and personal proportions.
- We often treat patients who have had filler elsewhere and want to refine or correct it.
- Our team uses proven techniques to minimize swelling, bruising, and downtime.
What is lip filler?
Lip filler is a hyaluronic acid–based injectable that restores or enhances lip volume, shape, and definition. At BOYD, we primarily use Juvederm fillers — selected for their smooth consistency and soft, natural finish — while also offering advanced products like Restylane Kysse and RHA when appropriate.
We use lip filler to:
- Add subtle volume
- Define the lip border
- Smooth vertical lip lines
- Restore proportion between top and bottom lips
- Refine symmetry
- Correct shape from prior filler or natural asymmetry
- What to expect at your lip filler appointment
Your treatment begins with a consultation to understand your goals.
A hydrated look?
Better definition?
Or maybe just a barely-there enhancement?
Most lip filler appointments take about 30 to 45 minutes. Numbing is available for comfort, and results are visible immediately.
You may experience swelling or mild bruising for a few days. We recommend avoiding strenuous activity and alcohol for 24 hours after treatment.
Before & After Philosophy
At BOYD, we don’t do "filler lips." We enhance the lips you already have by gently restoring structure and shape while preserving movement and softness.
Dr. Boyd and his team focus on proportion and harmony, not volume alone. Whether it’s your first time or a correction from elsewhere, the goal is always the same: natural-looking lips that match the rest of your face.
Results & longevity
Results are immediate, with swelling typically subsiding within 3 to 5 days.
Most patients enjoy their lip filler results for 6 to 12 months, depending on the product used and individual metabolism.
We often integrate lip filler with subtle Botox ("lip flip"), microneedling for vertical lip lines, or dermal filler in surrounding areas (like the chin or perioral region) for balanced rejuvenation.
Why patients choose BOYD
Our patients are often looking to undo what was done elsewhere or start their aesthetic path with someone they trust. At BOYD, you won’t be pressured or overfilled. You'll get an honest assessment, expert care, and lips that look like yours — just more defined, hydrated, and balanced.
“This is the first time I’ve had lip filler and didn’t feel self-conscious about it. It just fits my face.”
