Lip Filler *

If you’ve ever wanted a little extra definition for your lips or found that your natural pout is depleting as you age, you’ve probably thought about lip fillers.

Over the years, this treatment has evolved into an art form, offering subtle and natural enhancements that help you feel naturally confident or something used more for modification and to fit your aesthetic.

Whether you’re looking for a volume boost or a more defined shape, lip fillers are an aliens fave way to do so!

Let’s explore what lip fillers are, how they work, and what makes them our most popular dermal filler treatment.

  • Lip fillers are injectable treatments made from hyaluronic acid (HA), a substance naturally found in your skin. HA-based fillers, like Revolax & Restylane, are specifically designed to add volume, define shape, and hydrate your lips while maintaining a soft and natural feel.

    The beauty of lip fillers lies in their versatility—your treatment can be completely tailored to suit your unique goals, whether that’s enhancing your natural lip shape, restoring lost volume, creating a more symmetrical look or for gender affirmation.

  • 1. Enhanced Volume and Shape

    Lip fillers can increase the size of your lips while defining their shape. This makes them ideal for anyone looking to balance proportions or achieve a more sculpted shape and height.

    2. Improved Symmetry

    Many people have slight asymmetry in their lips, where one side or lip is thinner than the other. Fillers can correct this imbalance, giving you a more harmonious look.

    3. Hydration Boost

    Because hyaluronic acid attracts and retains moisture, lip fillers not only add volume but also hydrate your lips, leaving them soft and smooth.

    4. Reversible

    One of the great things about HA-based fillers is that they’re temporary and fully reversible. If you decide the look isn’t for you, the filler can be dissolved.

    5. Customisable Results

    Lip fillers are not one-size-fits-all. Your practitioner will work with you to achieve the look you want, whether that’s a subtle enhancement or a more dramatic transformation.

    6. Youthful Appearance

    Lips tend to lose volume and definition with age, leading to a thinner appearance and the formation of fine lines around the mouth. Lip fillers restore lost volume and smooth these lines, giving you a fresher, more youthful look.

  • Lip fillers are perfect for anyone who wants to enhance or restore their lips, regardless of age. Common goals include:

    • Adding volume to naturally thin lips.

    • Defining the lip border for a more sculpted look.

    • Correcting asymmetry between the upper and lower lips.

    • Restoring volume lost due to aging.

    • Smoothing fine lines around the mouth (smoker’s lines).

  • 1. Consultation:

    Your journey begins with a consultation where you’ll discuss your goals and preferences. Your practitioner will go through all of the possible complications and all of the procedures we carry out to keep you as safe as possible.

    2. Preparation:

    A numbing cream is typically applied to ensure you’re comfortable during the procedure, you’re en cleaned and prepped for treatment.

    3. Injection:

    Using a fine needle the filler is carefully injected into specific areas of your lips. This process is usually the shortest part of your appointment!

    4. Post-Treatment:

    You may experience swelling, tenderness, or bruising, but these effects usually subside within a few days. Applying ice packs and avoiding strenuous activity can help speed up recovery, don’t stress we will go through all of this in your consultation and send you an email with it all on for your reference too.

    5. Results:

    You’ll notice immediate improvements, but the main side effects will settle within 1–2 weeks and total healing after 4 weeks. The effects typically lasts 10-12 months, depending on the type of filler and your metabolism.
