Lip fillers are one of our most popular facial aesthetics treatments.
We believe in a ‘less is more’ approach to administering fillers so that the result complements all the elements that make your face uniquely beautiful
The benefits of lip fillers
No recovery time following treatment
Dermal fillers don’t demand that patients take any time off work following treatment.
Minimally-invasive alternative to surgery
Lip fillers produce predictable results and offer patients an alternative to surgery for enhancing the beauty of the lip area. The treatment uses a very fine needle, and as a numbing agent is used, you won’t experience any discomfort when they are administered.
Address multiple aesthetic concerns with the lip area.
Lip fillers can:
- Add volume to plump the lips and create a fuller pout.
- Add definition.
- Reduce the appearance of smile lines around the mouth.
- Reduce the appearance of marionette lines.
- Reduce the appearance of barcode lines on the lips.
Your treatment journey with lip fillers
Step 1: Consultation
Our facial aesthetics treatments are preceded by a consultation. This is an important step, allowing your practitioner to assess if you are medically suitable for treatment. Pregnant and breastfeeding women are not suitable for treatment.
Step 2: Planning your treatment
The lips and surrounding area of the skin are closely examined. We will ask you a few questions about your lifestyle to ascertain how this may have affected the quality of the skin on the lips. Your practitioner will pinpoint where to administer the fillers to achieve the type of definition, contouring and plumping you are hoping for.
Step 3: Administering the filler
The filler contains a numbing agent that will ensure you feel only some very light pressure when administered. The treatment process takes just 10-15 minutes.
FAQs
How do lip fillers work?
Lip fillers are made up of hyaluronic acid, which exists naturally in the skin. Hyaluronic acid is a moisture-drawing, naturally occurring substance in the skin. The fillers reinstate lost supplies of hyaluronic acid to the lip area, leaving you with younger-looking lips.
Can I have lip fillers if I naturally have thin lips?
Yes. We treat many patients who naturally have a thin lip area.
How long do lip fillers last?
Lip fillers last for approximately 6 months. 4-6-monthly top-up treatments are recommended to maintain the results.
Are there any treatment side effects?
Some minor side effects, including redness and bruising, are common in the days following treatment. These side effects should not last for longer than 48 hours.
