MedGlo offers physician-performed lip filler in Orange County, CA, with every treatment administered personally by Dr. Violeta Recalde, MD, at our Mission Viejo office. Whether you want to restore lost volume, balance uneven lips, or add a touch of definition, the goal is always the same — soft, natural-looking results that still look like you.
There are no nurse injectors or technicians at MedGlo. Dr. Recalde is a board-certified physician with over 20 years of medical experience and an expert understanding of facial anatomy, so your lips are shaped with precision and care — never overfilled.
What is Lip Filler?
Lip filler is an injectable hyaluronic acid (HA) gel used to add volume, shape, and hydration to the lips. Hyaluronic acid is a substance your body produces naturally, which makes HA fillers both well-tolerated and reversible — they can be dissolved if you ever want to adjust your results.
At MedGlo, Dr. Recalde uses FDA-approved hyaluronic acid fillers to enhance the lips while preserving natural movement and expression. Treatment can soften fine lines around the mouth, correct asymmetry, define the lip border, and restore volume lost to aging — all in a single short visit.
Lip Filler vs. Lip Flip
These two treatments achieve different goals, and Dr. Recalde will help you choose the right one — or combine them — during your consultation.
Lip Filler uses hyaluronic acid to add actual volume and structure to the lips. Best if you want fuller, more defined, or more balanced lips. Results are immediate and last several months.
Lip Flip uses a few units of Botox along the upper lip to relax the muscle so the lip gently rolls outward, showing more of the pink. It adds no volume — it creates a subtly fuller-looking upper lip and can soften a "gummy" smile. A great low-commitment option or a complement to filler.

How Long Does It Last?
