Lip filler can add definition to the borders of your lips, and the shape / size of your lips can be enhanced either subtly or dramatically according to your preferences. Our non-surgical lip enhancement procedure is also ideal for reducing lines and creases around the mouth area (including ‘smoker’s lines’).

This depends on the outcome the client is trying to achieve, leading brands include Juvéderm® and MaiLi for lip filler. Both include a built-in anaesthetic making them less painful to have injected than other fillers.
