First Steps
If you’re looking into fuller and poutier lips in Honolulu, Hawaii, your first step is to schedule a Lip Fillers consultation at PRP Center Hawaii with Dr. Larry Schlesinger. When you come in for your appointment, Dr. Schlesinger will evaluate your lips and ask you questions about your medical history. It is important to be open and honest when discussing these matters, as it helps the doctor avoid any unnecessary risks or complications.
After you decide on the appropriate lip filler and the direction of your treatment, Dr. Schlesinger will create your treatment plan. When you are happy with the plan, you will be able to receive your treatment immediately after your consultation, or if you’d prefer a different time, our Patient Coordinator will be able to help you set up your appointment and also discuss any pricing options with you.
When it’s time for your Lip Filler treatment, Dr. Schlesinger and his friendly staff will welcome you and go over your treatment plan to make sure nothing has changed. We will then apply a topical numbing cream or a local anesthetic to your lips so you will be comfortable during the procedure.
Once your lips are adequately numbed, Dr. Schlesinger will carefully administer the chosen Lip Filler injections. His experience and creative eye will ensure that the injections are precise and the filler is distributed evenly to give you a beautifully and symmetrically enhanced appearance.
You should be done within half an hour and be able to see immediate results.
After your Lip Filler treatment, you will be provided with an ice pack to gently apply to the treated area to reduce some of the swelling and discomfort. Overall, the Lip Filler procedure is quick, easy, and relatively painless, and you should be able to resume your normal activities immediately after the procedure is done.
