Lip Fillers at Skin Medical

Lip fillers are injectable treatments that add volume, shape, and definition to the lips using substances like hyaluronic acid. At Skin Medical we only use premium HA lip filler brands.  Lip fillers are made of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the skin. This makes the filler low-risk and well-accepted by the body. Juvederm is a commonly used hyaluronic acid lip filler. If necessary, the filler can be easily dissolved with an enzyme called hyaluronidase. While there are other fillers made from different chemicals, hyaluronic acid fillers are generally recommended for lip treatments due to their safety and effectiveness.

Fillers are injected into the lips to plump them up, enhance their shape, and smooth out lines around the mouth.

The procedure involves a series of small injections, taking about 30-45 minutes. A numbing cream is applied to minimise discomfort.

Results typically last between 6 to 12 months, depending on the type of filler used and individual factors.

Common side effects include swelling, bruising, and tenderness at the injection site. These usually subside within a few days. Your final result may not be obvious for a few days until the swelling in the lips has reduced.

The treatment is generally well-tolerated. A numbing cream is used to reduce discomfort during the procedure.

Avoid alcohol, aspirin, and anti-inflammatory medications for a few days before the treatment to reduce the risk of bruising.

Avoid strenuous exercise, excessive heat, and alcohol for 24 hours post-treatment. Applying ice can help reduce swelling.
