Lip Enhancement

When performed by appropriately trained medical practitioners, Dermal Lip Fillers are very safe. The hyaluronic gel is completely natural, and over time, the filler will slowly dissolve, causing no harm to you. Juvederm® lip fillers have an excellent reputation and safety record; they are FDA-approved and created by Allergan.

At Sheer Laser Clinic, you will only ever be treated by one of our highly trained Doctors or Cosmetic Nurses. We believe it is only safe to be administered by someone who is medically trained.

You should be able to see the results of your treatment immediately, although you may need to wait for slight redness or swelling to subside to fully appreciate the results.

Dermal Filler treatments typically last up to six months, after which they breakdown and are absorbed by your body. You may decide to book a another treatment before the fillers wear off.

Recovery time can be from a few hours to a few days depending on your reaction to the treatment. However, most people find that they can return straight back to work after treatment.

The most common side effects are mild to moderate and include slight redness, swelling or bruising at the injection site, but these effects usually resolve themselves within a week. Twelve hours after your treatment, you can cover up any discolouration with make-up. Other risks are less likely in the right hands but we will talk you through all of the potential side effects at your initial consultation, so you feel fully informed.

Naturally you will have questions and some concerns about the treatment which is why we would start your journey by inviting you in for a one-to-one free consultation with our Doctor or Cosmetic Nurse, so that they can provide you with advice as to the most suitable form of treatment for you. We may recommend another treatment if there’s one that we believe would give you a better outcome; we may even advise you against treatment if we feel this to be in your best interest. At all times, we ensure that you receive an an honest assessment that puts your needs first.

As with any treatment to the skin, injections should be avoided in areas where the skin is swollen or where infections are present. Lip Fillers are not suitable for anyone with severe allergies. You should not consider dermal fillers of any kind if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
