01/

Can anyone carry out this work?

Patient safety is our first concern! As with any injections like these, there are always risks of infection; damage to skin, nerves & tissue & the possibility of allergic reactions. We are trained to minimise those risks in the first place & also to handle any problems safely, should they happen.

Does lip enhancement hurt?

We apply a prescription-strength numbing cream prior to your treatment which makes the treatment very tolerable. The dermal fillers used also contain a local anaesthetic which also makes it a more comfortable experience.

03/

What fillers do you use?

We do stock all premium fillers such as Juvederm, Teosyal which we will only purchase from reputable aesthetics pharmacies. We tailor filler to your desired outcome and what we can achieve with your anatomy in mind so we are firm believers one brand of filler does not suit all.

What are the side effects?

You will receive a full consultation with your appointed medical practitioner. They will discuss all risks, side effects, benefits of treatment and what to expect, together with a treatment plan.

What should I do after treatment?

You should avoid rubbing or touching the injected areas and avoid having facials or massage for 48 hours to ensure that the treatment remains at the site of injection and to prevent any infection at the injection site. Avoid steam baths, saunas, vigorous exercise and alcohol for 48 hours.
