OVERVIEW

LIP FILLERS, LOUGHBOROUGH

In recent years, lip filler has become an increasingly popular way to enhance and define your lips’ natural shape and plumpness. While many clinics across the country offer this treatment, it’s important to choose the right practitioner to achieve natural-looking results in a safe, sterile environment. At Lux Dental, our lip enhancement treatment involves carefully injecting dermal filler, containing hyaluronic acid, carefully into the lips to replace lost volume and enhance their shape and fullness.

QUESTIONS ABOUT

Lip enhancemen

Fillers contain hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance found in our skin. Our body breaks this down over time, so the filler is also broken down naturally. When injected into the skin, it plumps and hydrates and helps to replace lost volume and structure that occurs through the normal process of ageing. Some fillers also contain local anaesthetic.
Not when it’s done by us! If lip filler is just done using numbing cream (which is what most people do), it is very painful. Your lips are very sensitive, and numbing cream is not sufficient. We use dental blocks. There may be some initial discomfort as we inject into the mouth (similar to when you may have had a filling), but after this you’re completely numb, making the procedure much more comfortable for you.

This procedure does carry risk, especially if it’s not carried out safely. The biggest risk with filler is injecting it into a vessel. Because it is a gel, if left in a vessel, it can cause it to be blocked, or allow the filler to move around the blood vessels causing blockages elsewhere. If this occurs, the filler needs to be dissolved instantly…and we have the dissolving agent with us at all times. To minimise this risk, we inject our filler using a cannula. This is a blunt syringe, which is inserted through a small entry point into the skin. This is a much safer way of injecting any filler, as opposed to using a needle, and minimises the risk of serious complications.

The main side effects are bruising and swelling. The amount varies from one person to the next, but generally these subside within the first few days.

The results usually last for 6-9 months, although it does vary from one individual to the next.

We choose the lip filler product depending on the desired outcome. We stock all major brands such as Juvederm, Restylane and Aliaxin…our favourite is Aliaxin LV!

It is not unusual to need several sittings to achieve the desired size of the lip. We would only ever do one syringe in a single sitting (1ml), and then you can always come back for more.
