For your first Highline Signature Lip treatment, it's normal to feel a bit nervous. But rest assured, encountering a friendly atmosphere is part of the experience here at Highline Aesthetics. One of our clients shared, “Julie listened to all my concerns... it really felt like she had my best interests at heart.” We're dedicated to ensuring you feel comfortable and informed from the moment you walk through our doors.

Essential Prep Steps for Your Lip Treatment

Hydration is key to achieving the best results with your lip treatment. We usually recommend drinking plenty of water in the days leading up to your appointment. Also, please avoid alcohol and blood-thinning medications like aspirin for at least 24 hours prior. If you have any allergies, it’s essential to communicate those to your specialist so they can provide the safest experience for you.

What to Expect During Your First Treatment

When you arrive, we’ll start with a brief consultation to discuss your goals and is entirely focused on your comfort. Then we’ll prepare the area by applying a numbing cream, making the process as smooth as possible. Clients often mention feeling at ease; one noted how Julie kept her calm despite nerves, saying, “...she kept me at ease, and they came out amazing!” For the actual injection, it usually takes about 20-30 minutes, during which you may feel a slight pinch, but nothing out of the ordinary.

Aftercare and Expected Results

After the treatment, you might experience some swelling and tenderness, which is perfectly normal. We recommend applying an ice pack to reduce any swelling and avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours to maintain the results. Many clients find the final outcome to be stunning, often commenting on a newfound sense of confidence. It's best to schedule a follow-up in about six months for a touch-up, depending on how your lips respond.
