Why MDW Aesthetics Chose Revanesse Versa

We chose Versa for its smooth consistency, lower post-injection swelling, and natural tissue integration that gives patients a soft, touchable result from day one.

When I first started working with Revanesse Versa, the difference in patient experience stood out immediately. Patients reported less swelling in the first 48 hours compared to their previous filler experiences, and the consistency of the product allowed me to sculpt precise, natural-looking lip borders.

Three clinical advantages matter most for Miami lip filler patients:

  1. Spherical particle technology: Versa's uniform particle size creates a smoother gel that distributes evenly across the lip tissue. This reduces the risk of lumps and creates a more natural feel.
  2. Lower swelling profile: Versa tends to produce less initial swelling than Juvederm Ultra. For Brickell professionals who need to return to work quickly, this matters.
  3. Longevity: In our clinical experience, Versa results last 12 months or longer for most patients, matching or exceeding competitors at a lower price point.

"My favorite moment is when a patient looks in the mirror after lip filler and says 'That is exactly what I wanted,'" says Lisa MacLachlan, MSN, APRN, FNP-C at MDW Aesthetics. "Versa makes those moments happen consistently because the product cooperates with the tissue rather than fighting it."

Half Syringe vs Full Syringe: What You Actually Need

First-time lip filler patients often do best with a half syringe ($399) for subtle enhancement. Patients seeking noticeable volume benefit from a full syringe ($499) at MDW Aesthetics.

One of the most common questions I hear in our Brickell clinic is "how much filler do I need?" The honest answer depends on your starting lip volume, your goals, and your comfort level.

  • Half syringe (0.5ml): Adds definition to the lip border, subtle plumping, and corrects minor asymmetry. Perfect for the "my lips but better" look. Start here if this is your first treatment.
  • Full syringe (1.0ml): Provides visible volume increase while maintaining natural proportions. Ideal for patients who want their lips to be a noticeable feature without looking overdone.

At MDW, we follow the "less is more" philosophy first, and build volume gradually across visits. This approach produces results that enhance your natural lip shape rather than creating an artificial look. View our full lip filler pricing for current rates.

What to Ask Your Injector Before Getting Lip Filler in Miami

Ask about the product brand, the injector's credentials, their approach to natural results, and their protocol for managing complications before committing to treatment.

These five questions separate a quality lip filler experience from a risky one:

  1. What specific filler product do you use for lips, and why?
  2. Can I see before-and-after photos of your actual patients?
  3. What credentials do you hold, and who is your medical director?
  4. Do you have hyaluronidase available in case of complications?
  5. What is your approach to natural-looking results?

At MDW Aesthetics, we welcome these questions. Our team of credentialed practitioners works under the medical direction of Dr. Mina Ayad, MD, and we keep hyaluronidase (the dissolving agent for HA fillers) on hand at every appointment.

The MDW Lip Filler Experience in Brickell

Every lip filler appointment at MDW starts with a facial assessment, includes topical numbing, and takes about 30 minutes from start to finish in our Brickell clinic.

Here is what a typical appointment looks like:

  1. Consultation and assessment (10 minutes): We discuss your goals, examine your lip anatomy, and recommend a treatment plan. No pressure.
  2. Numbing (10 minutes): A topical numbing cream is applied to minimize discomfort. Versa also contains lidocaine within the formula.
  3. Injection (10-15 minutes): Precise placement along the lip border and body, sculpting your desired shape.
  4. Aftercare review (5 minutes): You'll receive written aftercare instructions and know exactly what to expect over the next 48 hours.

Most patients return to their day immediately. Light swelling peaks at 24-48 hours and resolves within a week. Learn more about what to expect after lip filler.
