Lip Fillers are non-permanent injections to provide a non-surgical solution for people who are unhappy with the size or shape of their lips. These injections can be used to safely add volume to both the upper and lower lip.
At our Dermatologist led clinic on Harley Street we can plump and contour the lips with Lip Filler Injections that contain a form of hyaluronic acid which is especially suited for use in the lips.
Lip fillers can be used to give the cupid’s bow on the upper lip a more defined look.
Volume can also be added to the upper and lower lips, to increase fullness and give a more defined smile.
While some people prefer a fuller pout, others may be after a less noticeable result and we are also experienced at subtle lip filler enhancement.
In some people the corners of the mouth turn downwards which makes a person look permanently sad, and this can also be improved with Lip Filler injections.
Finally, these injections can also be used to smooth out what we call ‘smokers lines’ around the outside of the mouth.
In a typical person, the results from lip filler injections will last between 6 to 12 months, depending on the results that you are seeking.
You can also take steps to prolong the results by ensuring that you use lipsticks (or lip balm for men) containing SPF because sun exposure increases damage to the vermillion and that over time will decrease lip volume.
There are different reasons why people may wish to have these treatments. For instance age can cause our lips to become thinner or less defined. Sun damage causes the upper lip to become thinner and the line between the lip’s vermillion and the adjacent skin becomes blurred.
Some people are simply born with thin lips and they wish to increase lip volume in order to provide balance with other parts of their face. The lips have also long been considered a symbol of sensuality and many people have these treatments to achieve a more youthful looking mouth.
We are careful to work with only the best lip fillers and currently use Restylane and Juvederm for Lip Filler treatments at our clinic. Both Restylane and Juvederm are FDA Approved and in our experience provide the best predictable and long lasting results when treating the lips.
The lips are an extremely sensitive area of the body but both Restylane and Juvederm contain anaesthesia components and this will assist to minimise any discomfort during treatment.
Dr Haus has considerable experience with Lip Filler treatments and he personally worked with Restylane when they launched Dermal Fillers for Lips throughout Scandinavia in 2011.

Responses to treatment with Lip Fillers will vary from person to person and may even vary in the same person over time. It is for this reason that results are not guaranteed.
