While lip injections are considered a relatively safe and common procedure, many people wonder if they hurt. The answer is that it depends on your individual pain tolerance and the technique used by your injector.
- Most people experience a mild pinching sensation as the filler is injected, which is comparable to a small bee sting.
- Numbing cream is typically applied before the procedure, which helps to significantly reduce discomfort.
- The lips are a sensitive area, so some people may feel more discomfort than others.
- The pain typically subsides within 12 to 24 hours.
- Aftercare instructions from your injector will help minimize any discomfort.
It's important to discuss your concerns and pain tolerance with your injector beforehand. They can help you manage any discomfort and make sure you have a positive experience.
