Lip Filler & BOTOX
At MFI, we’re known for our subtle lip filler results, but we’re equally skilled at creating a bolder-looking lip that gets noticed. It’s all about you and what you want from your lip filler treatment. We’ll discuss all your options, including a BOTOX lip flip. This is a great option if you just want a little more upper lip projection and height or if you have a “gummy smile.”

Dissolving Lip Filler With Hyaluronidase
The high demand for lip filler injections means more providers are offering them. Unfortunately, that sometimes means bad lip fillers, sometimes called “duck lips” or “trout pout.” But you don’t have to live with overfilled, asymmetrical, or imbalanced lips. We use injections of hyaluronidase to immediately dissolve filler so you can have the results you want.
