Lip augmentation

Lip augmentation is a cosmetic procedure that rejuvenates and adds plumpness and volume.

 

At your consultation, you and your doctor will discuss what you want to achieve in terms of lip shape and volume. To date, the majority of clients have opted for a natural look.

 

Results:

You will see some results as soon as the treatment is finished. The full effects will develop over the next four weeks. The results will normally last for 9-12 months.

 

Review:

We will usually ask you to a review appointment 14 days after the treatment. At this stage, further touch-up injections can be given if needed. There is no charge for this review.

 

Note:

This procedure is performed under local anaesthesia to minimise discomfort.

  1. This treatment takes about 45 minutes, which includes a detailed consultation with your doctor.
  2. First, we administer a local anaesthetic (dental block) into the gums to numb any feeling in the lips.
  3. We then make a series of small injections of dissolvable hyaluronic acid filler into the lips. We use the thinnest industry-standard needles available on the market in order on the market in order to minimise discomfort and reduce downtime.
  1. You may experience minor bruising and/or swelling. This should go away in a day or two.
  2. It is advisable not to apply makeup to the treated area for 24 hours or so.
  3. Over the next four weeks, try not to apply strong pressure to the lip area.
  4. Drink 1-2 litres of water a day for optimum results.
