Lip fillers

Lip fillers are often promoted and performed by those who lack the proper education or competence to do so safely and effectively. Before deciding to get this cosmetic treatment, you should do your homework and only go to a recognised clinic. Canterbury Skin and Laser Clinic’s experienced medical professionals have been using lip fillers on patients for a long time. Since the Care Quality Commission monitors Canterbury Skin and Laser Clinic, you may rest assured that the clinic meets all standards for a medical clinic and that you will be treated by a competent professional in a sterile, clean environment. Lip fillers are made from hyaluronic acid, a substance found naturally in the dermis of the skin. After numbing the lips with a lotion, a tiny needle is injected into the lips or lip line to get the desired effect. Some minor oedema is to be expected after treatment, although it can be reduced with an ice pack. It’s normal to experience some light, pinpoint bleeding, and it should stop fast. Lip fillers are not permanent and typically last between six and twelve months.
