Natural Lip Fillers in London

Lip fillers are composed of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring component in soft tissues. They are used to enhance lip volume, define the lips, and address wrinkles around the mouth. Lip fillers are a critical part of facial rejuvenation. Our lips get thinner as we get older. Putting your volume back is very rejuvenating. Lip fillers will compliment a facial rejuvenation using dermal fillers. However, the opposite can happen with over filled lips. Which can be ageing and unnatural.

Common side effects include temporary redness, tenderness, swelling, and bruising at the injection site. While these effects typically subside within a few days, it’s crucial to follow post-procedure care instructions provided by your practitioner. Rare complications, such as asymmetry, nerve damage, infection or vascular occlusion may occur but are significantly less common. To minimise the risk of adverse outcomes, it’s vital to choose a reputable and qualified professional working in a clinical setting.

The risks associated with lip fillers can significantly increase when performed by an inexperienced practitioners. Overuse or excessive injection of lip filler can potentially lead to permanent stretching of the lip skin.
Vascular occlusion is the big elephant in the room. This happens when a blood vessel is occluded by the filler. When this happens the tissue in the area is unable to get blood supply and the skin tissue begins to die. Vascular Occlusion is a risk with all dermal fillers but overfilled lips are very risky and we therefore do not do this. The importance of moderation can not be understated.

Filler migration may occur when dermal fillers unintentionally shift or move from their original injection site over time. This can result in a lack of border definition between the lip and surrounding areas. Factors that can contribute to filler migration, include the type of filler used, the skill of the practitioner performing the injections, the quantity of filler injected, and the quality of aftercare provided. In cases where filler migration occurs, they can easily be dissolved by using a dissolving agent, such as hyaluronidase. We have a specialised dissolving technique to gently and slowly dissolve migrated filler.

Lumps and bumps may occur and usually subside within 72 hours. Causes may be superficial filler or filler movement. We ask clients to massage if this happens and if there is no improvement to return to the clinic in 3 weeks for a correction. This rarely happens but if it does, it’s not difficult to correct.

When done correctly and not overfilled (which we will not ever do), lip fillers should feel like more supple and smoother lips.

We always start with 1ml. We may need to add an additional 4 weeks after the first injection date. The natural work we do rarely requires 3ml. This technique allows for a gradual build up.

This varies greatly from one person to the next. You will require a top up after 6 to 18 months. After the first top up, it can last even longer.

The main reason we see people injected elsewhere telling us that their lip filler didn’t last is because they only had half and ml. People do this because they don’t want their lips “too big”. However, once the swelling subsides, they simply can not see a difference. Other factors like lip size, age, and collagen levels also play a part. The filler used can play a big role in this. We find that many companies have re branded filler to be used specifically on the lips. This filler can have a very low molecule structure and last less.

We apply anaesthesia for pain reduction. Then quick and simple injections targeting desired areas followed by a post-injection lip massage and cold pack to reduce swelling.
