How does it work?
Dermal fillers work by boosting the skin's supply of hyaluronic acid. They fillers revitalise and add volume to the skin, instantly diminishing the appearance of lines and wrinkles, giving a natural and softer appearance
What can I expect?
Following an initial consultation and if suitable to have the treatment, a medical questionnaire and consent is obtained and photographs taken of the areas to be treated. The area is cleansed and local anaesthetic cream is applied. The product used will generally contain lidocaine, an anaesthetic agent within the filler to ensure a more comfortable procedure. This is relatively painless and the whole procedure takes approximately one hour, after which you can return to work or other activities.
Following lip enhancement/augmentation ice is usually applied to alleviate any swelling.
