Lip filler
Lip filler can be injected for two reasons, to look younger or to look more beautiful. They can replace lost volume caused by the ageing process or add volume to a thin or not well defined lip.
We use only premium long lasting temporary lip fillers. These are a smooth, colourless injectable gel, a product which naturally occurs in our skin and joints to hydrate and lubricate.
For your comfort, the dermal fillers we use are formulated using local anaesthetic and A strong numbing cream is applied to the area prior to the treatment. Ice is also used to decrease pain and to reduce the risk of bruising. The lip filler is injected using a very fine needle. Lip filler will last 6-12 months on average.
