How Do Lip Fillers Work?

• Enhanced Volume: Get fuller, more luscious lips, perfect for those with naturally thin lips or age-related volume loss.

• Improved Symmetry: Correct any imbalances for a more harmonious and symmetrical smile, even helping to reduce a “gummy smile.”

• Youthful Appearance: Fuller lips are associated with youth and vitality. Lip fillers smooth fine lines and wrinkles around the mouth, restoring a youthful look.

• Customisable Results: Whether you want a subtle enhancement or a more dramatic change, lip fillers allow for tailored treatments based on your unique preferences.

Lip fillers work by injecting small amounts of dermal filler into the lips. These fillers hydrate and enhance the lips, providing a plump, yet natural look with careful attention to symmetry and balance.

Dermal fillers made of hyaluronic acid (HA)—a naturally occurring substance in the body—are used to create this effect. The result is a natural fullness that’s tailored to your desired look, giving you a refreshed and perfectly proportioned smile.

Benefits of Lip Fillers

The Lip Filler Procedure

The lip filler procedure takes about 30 minutes, or 60 minutes when including consultation time. During your consultation, we’ll assess whether lip fillers are the right choice for your goals. If so, a numbing cream will be applied to ensure comfort, taking about 10 minutes to take effect. Dermal fillers are then injected into the lips to add volume, shape, and definition.

While results are immediate, you may experience some redness, swelling, or bruising, which should fully subside within two weeks.

Risks of Lip Fillers

As with any injectable treatment, lip fillers do come with some risks. Common side effects include redness, swelling, bruising, and tenderness, which are all normal post-treatment. However, choosing an experienced and skilled injector significantly reduces the risk of more severe complications, such as:

• Filler Migration: The product can move away from the intended area, leading to uneven results or “duck lips.”

• Lumps or Bumps: Some individuals may experience small lumps in the lips.

• Infection or Vascular Occlusion: In rare cases, incorrect placement can lead to more severe issues, such as infection or vascular occlusion (blocked blood flow), which may result in skin damage.

To minimise these risks, always choose an experienced medical professional for your treatment. Feel confident and informed before proceeding, ensuring your injector has the expertise and qualifications to deliver the best results.

Do Lip Fillers Hurt?

Since dermal fillers are administered with a needle, some level of discomfort is expected. However, at My Features, we prioritise your comfort. To make the process as pain-free as possible, we apply a topical anaesthetic and use advanced fillers that contain lidocaine to numb the area further.

Certain areas, like the lips, may be more sensitive due to the higher concentration of nerve endings. But rest assured, the procedure is generally well-tolerated. Our highly trained practitioners use the latest injection techniques to ensure you experience minimal discomfort while achieving the best possible results.

Your safety and comfort are always our top priorities, and we’re here to make the process as smooth and comfortable as possible.

Are Lip Fillers Safe?

At My Features, your safety is our top priority. Lip fillers are a safe and effective treatment when administered by highly trained professionals. The lips contain many nerve endings and blood vessels, so it’s crucial that only qualified medical experts perform the procedure. That’s why, at My Features, all our treatments are carried out by highly skilled practitioners with extensive training and experience.

We also use only the highest quality dermal fillers, known for their excellent safety profiles, ensuring you receive the safest and most effective treatment possible.

How Long Do Lip Fillers Last?

On average, hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers last between 6 to 18 months, depending on the individual. For lip fillers specifically, the typical duration is around 6 to 9 months. However, the longevity of your fillers can vary based on factors such as the amount of filler used, the area treated, and your metabolism and lifestyle.

During your consultation, our expert injectors will assess these factors and provide you with a more tailored estimate of how long your results may last, ensuring you know exactly what to expect.

How Can I Make My Lip Fillers Last Longer?

• Follow Aftercare Instructions: Be sure to follow the aftercare guidelines provided by our practitioners to ensure optimal healing.

• Use Medical-Grade Skincare Products: These products can help maintain the integrity and appearance of your skin, enhancing your filler results.

• Schedule Maintenance Appointments: Regular maintenance sessions ensure your lips remain beautifully plump and defined for longer.

• Maintain a Healthy Skincare Routine: Protect your skin by minimising exposure to UV radiation and using quality skincare products.

• Stay Hydrated and Eat a Balanced Diet: Proper hydration and nutrition help support the longevity of your fillers.
