Lip Enhancement Frequently Asked Questions
Lip Enhancement FAQs
Why do people get their lips injected?
Ageing naturally causes your lips to become thinner and lose definition. Where you’re likely to notice most is around the ‘Cupid’s Bow’ – the V-shaped area of your upper lip. You may have used make-up to disguise things, but make-up can bleed down the vertical wrinkles and actually highlight the problem.
What’s so good about getting your lips done?
Lip fillers can be used to give you youthful looking, plump lips. People of all ages with naturally thin or thinning lips can benefit from lip enhancement treatment.
• A more defined smile
• Enhance your pout
• Can help turn the corners of the mouth upwards
• Give lips a more youthful looking appearance
Does it hurt?
Lips are sensitive, therefore a local anaesthetic (cream or dental block) is first applied to the lips to ensure the area is numb. Lip fillers are then very carefully injected into the area required to give you more natural fuller lips.
How long does it take to get your lips done?
The whole lip enhancement procedure should take as little as 30 minutes. To discuss how you can achieve fuller lips with more definition. You can bring in pictures to show us your desired results or we can show you our gallery of before and afters to help inform your choice.
