What is the Mini Lip Plump®?
The Mini Lip Plump® is a lip filler injection using up to 0.5cc of hyaluronic acid (HA) dermal filler. Hyaluronic acid is a substance naturally found in the body. It attracts moisture, which is what gives your lips that soft, pillowy feel after treatment.
We customize every Mini Lip Plump® to your goals. Whether you want more volume, better shape, or a more defined cupid’s bow, your injector will tailor the treatment specifically to your face. Most clients use the full 0.5cc, but we never overfill. Your comfort and natural result always come first!

How Long Does the Mini Lip Plump® Last?
The Mini Lip Plump® will naturally be broken down and metabolized by your body, and the length it lasts depends on just how quickly your body metabolizes the product. On average, the Mini Lip Plump® usually lasts 3-4 months. Many of our clients like to plump their lips gradually and subtly, and build on their Mini Lip Plump® every few months!
How Long Will My Appointment Take?
The Mini Lip Plump® takes about 15 minutes, with about 10 minutes of numbing before you are treated. Your time is precious- we don’t want to waste it!
Does the Mini Lip Plump® Hurt?
Worried about pain? We use a prescription-strength numbing cream that we will apply 10-15 minutes before you are injected, which will get you nice and numb before your treatment!
Is There Any Prep for This Treatment?
To minimize your chances of bruising, we recommend avoiding ibuprofen and blood-thinning medications for 3 days before your injections. If you are prone to cold sores, you may want to start a course of treatment. Not sure what to do for cold sores? Just give us a call. 801-281-3223.
Is There Any Downtime or Recovery After This Treatment?
Everyone is different- we have some BeautyLabbers who walk out of their Lip Plump appointments with ready-to-go-fabulous-lips… and others who tend to bruise and swell. It really depends on your own individual physiology and body chemistry! Most people do swell a bit… generally, the morning after your injections is when you are going to be the most swollen. DON’T PANIC. This is normal and is actually supposed to happen! The HA fillers that we use in your lips are water-loving, which is what makes them so plump and perfect, so it’s totally normal for your lips to be more swollen in the morning (this is actually true with or without a Lip Plump. Look in the mirror tomorrow morning and notice your pout!) Typically, you will be a little swollen for a few days, up to a week after your injections. It will be something that you will notice, but most other people won’t. A week after your injections you will really be able to see what your perfect pout looks like. People who are prone to bruising may notice bruising on or around the lips after injections. Stay hydrated, avoid Ibuprofen before your appointment, and we recommend starting a course of Arnica Montana (a homeopathic remedy for bruising and swelling,) which we sell here for $12.
Are There Any Products I Should be Using at Home?
Yes! Keep your new lips hydrated and healthy at home with your favorite lip balm or gloss. Need a recommendation? TeamBLL swears by the LaNeige Lip Mask, and Patchology’s Gloss to Balm, both sold here in-office!
