What Is Lip Enhancement?
Achieving fuller, more voluminous lips can significantly enhance your overall facial aesthetics. Many individuals find that naturally plump lips are elusive, turning instead to cosmetic solutions, like lip fillers, for that desired boost in volume and shape. Lip fillers, using a full syringe of hyaluronic acid, offer a customizable way to enhance lip fullness and symmetry, aiming for a more appealing and balanced look. During a single appointment at Starr MedSpa, we'll thoroughly discuss your aesthetic goals and concerns and examine your lip anatomy to decide if lip fillers are right for you and which type best suits your needs. This personalized approach ensures that the treatment aligns with your expectations. For those wary of discomfort, a numbing cream is available to ease any concerns about the injection process. Our team is committed to delivering beautiful, natural-looking results in lip enhancement, ensuring you leave our Westlake Village or Studio City, CA facility with the confidence that comes from enhanced, beautifully shaped lips.
What Is Our Lip Enhancement Injection Technique?
Although lip augmentation is a relatively simple treatment, pre-treatment is typically suggested with a numbing cream. Then, at the beginning of the procedure, patients will be given a small ice pack to apply to their lips to cool them down. The ice pack's coolness helps numb the nerves, which helps reduce pain and keep patients as comfortable as possible. The cold also causes blood vessels to constrict, which helps tremendously lessen the swelling and bruising that can result from lip injections. During the procedure, small amounts of lip filler (JUVÉDERM® or Restylane®) are injected directly into the lips using a tiny needle. The filler depends on the existing shape and size of the lips and the desired result. The appointment lasts approximately one hour.
Frequency of treatment: every 6 – 12 months

Starr MedSpa Reviews
An amazing, amazing med spa! They are so welcoming, accommodating, honest and overall provide an exceptional experience no matter what type of service you are receiving—tox, filler, slim shots, peels, and lasers. I 100% trust Tenley and the team she has built around her! The slim shots work just have to trust the process and Tenley and her team are so open to answering questions quickly if I ever had any!
So thankful for Starr Medspa in helping me reach my health and wellness goals! So helpful in getting off stubborn stomach weight, or all overall toning up. I would recommend them to anyone looking to get the help they need for their aesthetic goals.
The GLP-1 shot has been a game changer for me. I am 4 yrs into my perimenopause and my weight gain was bad. Luckily I have healthy eating and gym habits but my body decided those are no longer “good enough”. After a lot of research on glp-1s I decided to give it a try with Starr MedSpa (Studio City). The team is very informative, kind and SO GENTLE with the shots. When I had minor side effects they adjusted my dose and now I’m back on track. I have lost 5 lbs in 1 month (this is a normal- healthy way to lose weight) and I feel really great on this medication!
I love coming to Starr MedSpa! It is incredibly beautiful and such a relaxing place. I've been going to nurse Alii to get my slim shot for the past couple months and omggg the results have been amazing!!! I've lost 15lbs within 3 months. I've had no side effects, everything has been great! Nurse Alii has been wonderful and I always feel comfortable in her care.
I have been coming to Starr Medspa since the start! I trust Tenley and the nurses there 100%. I recently started with their skinny shots as well and I am already noticing a difference. Super excited to see how I progress!

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I get the lips of a specific celebrity?
Many patients visit us hoping to achieve full, beautiful lips inspired by celebrities. While bringing photos of your ideal look can help our team understand your vision, it's important to keep in mind that replicating someone else's lips exactly may not be realistic. During your consultation, we'll take the time to listen to your goals and review options such as fat transfer, implants, or dermal fillers to enhance your lips. Together, we'll develop a personalized treatment plan to help you achieve a look that complements your natural features.
Is lip augmentation reversible?
Most patients are thrilled with their results, but if you're not satisfied, lip implants can be removed. If you're unsure about committing to implants, our team might recommend starting with dermal fillers, which are minimally invasive. With fillers, the gel gradually absorbs into the body over time, allowing your lips to naturally return to their original appearance if desired.
Is lip enhancement safe?
Yes, lip augmentation is considered a safe procedure when performed by a qualified and experienced provider. At Starr MedSpa, we use hyaluronic acid-based fillers like JUVÉDERM and Restylane to enhance lip volume and symmetry, offering a customizable and minimally invasive solution. To ensure your comfort, we provide a numbing cream and cooling ice packs, which help reduce discomfort, swelling, and bruising during and after the procedure. Our team takes a personalized approach, thoroughly discussing your goals and examining your lip anatomy to deliver natural-looking results that align with your expectations.
