What clients typically ask.
Answers below are summaries of widely accepted clinical practice. Your specific plan is always confirmed in consultation.
What does lip enhancement involve?
Lip enhancement uses cross-linked hyaluronic acid placed at the vermilion border, the philtrum columns, and within the body of the lip depending on the treatment goal. The approach prioritises proportion, definition, and symmetry over raw volume.
How is it different from lip filler?
The distinction is largely semantic, as the product is the same. In practice, 'lip enhancement' signals a more conservative treatment focused on refining and defining existing anatomy rather than adding volume. First-time clients often receive 0.5 ml, enough to sharpen the border without altering the overall character of the face.
Will the lips feel natural?
Yes, when placed correctly. Soft HA gels engineered for lip tissue move with natural expression and integrate within 2 to 3 weeks. Product that is too dense or overfilled can feel firm; this is avoided by selecting the appropriate viscosity and placing it correctly.
How long does it last?
Lip filler metabolises faster than filler in deeper tissue planes because the lips move constantly. Most clients see duration of 6 to 9 months. Maintaining results with a smaller top-up before complete dissolution produces a smoother long-term outcome.
What aftercare is needed?
Expect swelling and mild asymmetry for 24 to 72 hours, and some bruising for up to a week. The final result settles at approximately 14 days, which is when the review takes place. Avoid intense heat, vigorous exercise, and facials for 48 hours.
