What are Lip Fillers?
Lip fillers, or lip augmentation, enhances your lips with more volume and definition. It reduces the appearance of fine lines, giving you fuller lips and a younger appearance.
The lip filler we use is dermal filler, the safest and most well-known brand is Juvederm, which come from hyaluronic acid.
We have hyaluronic acid in our bodies already. It gives our skin the elasticity and plumpness that gives us our youthful appearance. Both fillers are produced as a gel and neither of them contains animal or human DNA which means it is one of the safest fillers on the market today.
Prices: 1ml – £180, 0.5ml – £120
What Is this Procedure?
We give you an anaesthetic which is a strong numbing cream. The lip area is sensitive and we want you to feel comfortable throughout the procedure. The fillers are then injected into the appropriate areas and massaged to provide the natural look you require.
How long do lip fillers last?
Your newly plump lips will normally last between 6-12 months. Although each person is different, some will find it doesn’t last the full 6 months. This can be caused by smoking, fast metabolism, regular exercise or kissing..
