Lip Fillers

We will talk about your lip concerns and discuss how we can address them with cosmetic treatments like lip injections. After assessing your individual lip shape, we will outline a bespoke treatment plan based on the type of filler used and the results we expect to achieve for you. We will only proceed once we are confident we can meet all your expectations. Photographs will also be taken to monitor your results, allowing us to compare the natural enhancement over time.

Your treatment will be carried out by one of Aesthetic Edge’s experienced practitioners, which includes specialist doctors and nurses. The team is handpicked and trained by clinic founder Dr. Maxine Morgan, who is a global trainer for Juvéderm, the manufacturer of the hyaluronic acid dermal filler used at Aesthetic Edge.

Lips injected with Juvederm Volbella should feel exactly like natural-looking lips: soft, smooth, and supple, similar to how natural lip fillers feel.

A beautiful lip shape is about symmetry as much as volume. Many clients come to us because they want to correct an asymmetrical shape or an imbalance between the top and bottom lip. Our skilled practitioners can address both lip size and shape in the same treatment, for optimal results. We can also help with smokers lines and nose to mouth lines.

The trout pout is the very opposite of the lip filler result we offer or endorse at Aesthetic Edge. This unnatural, exaggerated look can be caused by factors such as too much filler, the wrong type of filler used, poor practitioner technique, and incorrect product placement along the lip border. At Aesthetic Edge, all our lip filler treatments are carried out by highly-trained medical professionals, using premium filler designed especially for the lips. We pride ourselves on discreet, natural enhancement, and we would always underfill rather than overfill initially. If clients feel they would benefit from additional volume, this can easily be addressed at a follow-up appointment. Our client satisfaction rates speak for themselves.

The exact amount will vary from person to person, and this will be discussed at your consultation. We will always choose to inject less at first, and offer a top-up if needed, to achieve natural-looking lips.

Alcohol could potentially worsen bruising and initial swelling by dilating the blood vessels, so we would advise not drinking alcohol for 24 hours after treatment, particularly if you are prone to bruising.

Absolutely. This cosmetic treatment is increasingly popular with men, and we use it to treat all the same concerns, such as thin lips, loss of volume, and asymmetry. Our skilled practitioners are experienced in treating all clients.

Lip filler treatments are suitable for addressing a number of concerns including naturally thin lips, lips that have lost volume with age, and asymmetrical lips. At your initial consultation, we will discuss your concerns and take your medical history to ensure you are a suitable candidate for cosmetic treatments like lip injections.

The treated area will swell slightly immediately afterward, but this should settle completely within a few days. As with any injectable treatment, there is a chance of bruising, although the risk is minimised by our expertise and the use of ultra-fine cannulas. Skilled practitioners at Aesthetic Edge ensure that downtime is minimal, allowing you to quickly return to normal facial expressions.

Hyaluronic acid dermal filler can be dissolved by injecting an enzyme called hyaluronidase into the lips. This naturally-occurring enzyme breaks down the filler so it can be eliminated by the body. It is important to emphasise that the vast majority of lip filler reversal work carried out at Aesthetic Edge is with patients who have had unsatisfactory treatments elsewhere, often from permanent fillers that have been improperly placed. We only use temporary, natural lip fillers, which allow for flexibility and adjustments.

Natural lip fillers are dermal fillers designed to enhance the lips while maintaining a soft, natural-looking result. They often contain hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in the body.
