Lip Filler/Enhancement
What are Lip Fillers?
Lip fillers or lip enhancements are cosmetic procedures designed to enhance the appearance of the lips by adding volume, shape, and definition. They typically involve injecting a gel-like substance, such as hyaluronic acid or collagen, into the lips to increase their size or alter their shape.
Hyaluronic acid fillers are the most commonly used type of lip filler. Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance in the body that helps maintain hydration and volume in the skin. When injected into the lips, hyaluronic acid fillers can add volume and shape while also improving lip hydration and texture.

How do lip fillers work?
Our Lip Fillers are exclusively Hyaluronic acid-based formulations, which have obtained CE marking and approval. This stringent selection ensures the utmost safety and efficacy of our treatments. Hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body, promotes hydration and volume retention in the skin by drawing in and retaining water, thus delivering natural-looking results. By adhering to CE-marked and approved products, we uphold a high safety profile, prioritizing the well-being and satisfaction of our patients.
Are Lip Fillers safe?
Since patient safety is our utmost priority, as qualified medical professionals, we have a very good understanding of human facial anatomy to ensure dermal fillers are safely administered.
When administered by qualified medical professionals in appropriate doses, Lip/Dermal fillers are generally considered safe. As with any medical procedure, there are potential risks and side effects. At our clinic, we use various syringe and cannula techniques to administer the fillers effectively and safely. Common side effects may include temporary redness, swelling, bruising or tenderness at the injection site, which typically subside within a few days. Other more serious risks include infection and Vascular Occlusion. These scenarios are very rare and usually result from inexperience, poor product placement, incorrect or low-quality products, overfilling or injecting into a blood vessel. To reduce the chances of this happening, choose a doctor or nurse injector with experience. Ensure you feel comfortable and confident with them before committing to a procedure and make sure they have experience doing the procedure.
