At Dr. Lanna Aesthetics in New York City, we believe lip filler aftercare is just as important as the injection itself. One of the most common questions we receive is: “What lip balm or barrier cream should I use after my filler?” The right post-treatment product can make a big difference in comfort, healing, and how your results settle.
Immediately after lip filler, your lips may feel tender, dry, or slightly swollen. During this time, choosing a non-irritating, healing-focused lip product is essential. Dr. Lanna recommends fragrance-free, petroleum-free, and dye-free balms that restore moisture without aggravating the skin or interfering with the filler.
Our top picks include:
- Aquaphor Healing Ointment – for its simple, skin-protective formula
- CeraVe Healing Lip Balm – packed with ceramides for barrier support
- Vanicream Lip Protectant – great for sensitive skin with no fragrance or preservatives
- Avene Cicalfate+ Restorative Lip Cream – designed to soothe post-procedure dryness
We also advise avoiding plumping glosses, exfoliants, or tinted balms for at least 48 hours after treatment. At our NYC med spa, Dr. Lanna provides you with a complete aftercare plan that ensures your lips heal beautifully and your filler results last longer.
