Lip design treatment is a non-surgical, effective and affordable way to improve the size and shape of your lips or rejuvenate the skin around the lips. During treatment, a special hyaluronic acid (HA) gel is placed in and around the lips, helping to plump and shape the lips and soften fine wrinkles around the lips, giving them a fuller and more defined appearance. Results are immediate and can last for up to six months, depending on the product used.
Contact us to discuss your treatment options. We will gladly answer any questions you have and assist you in finding the best solution for your needs.
Lip Design treatments use hyaluronic gel to add volume and definition to the lips. The hyaluronic gel is evenly distributed throughout the lip area. Lip filler can be used to re-create symmetry and a natural harmony between the lip area and the rest of the face.
Lip Design treatment can provide many benefits including smooth, plump lips, a more balanced facial symmetry, and a more youthful appearance to wrinkled, aged skin around the lips. The results are instantaneous and can last for up to 6 months depending on the type of product used.

What is lip design and lip enhancement treatment?
Lip filler is cosmetic & clinical treatment into the lips to re-volumize them, improve their shape and improve skin texture to reduce fine lip lines and bleeding vertical lip lines. Lip fillers are used to give the lips more definition and structure, as well as improve their symmetry.
Why do people need lip fillers?
Lip fillers are often chosen for cosmetic reasons to improve the appearance of lips that have thinned with age or simply to enhance the shape and size of the lips. Lip filler may also help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles around the mouth, add definition to thin lips, or even improve facial symmetry. In addition to aesthetic improvement, lip filler can also boost hydration levels and prevent fine wrinkles and dryness on the lips.
Which areas can be treated?
The areas where lip fillers can be used:
- Vertical Lip Wrinkles (‘smoker’s or lipstick ‘bleed’ lines) – These are fine creases visible above and below the top and bottom lips. They often extend onto the lips as well and can be quite deep on the top lip extending towards the nose.
- Narrow Lips – This is sometimes a family feature or physical appearance that is shared by several family members. It can be exacerbated by the loss of a visible lip border because of cold sores and sun damage.
- General enhancement of size, fullness and shape – Lip filler are commonly used to give an increased volume to the lips. Specialised techniques are used to create your desired result whether it’s ‘A Classic Lip’, ‘A Russian Lip’, ‘A French Lip’ or your personal ‘Designed Lip’.
How long do the effects of lip filler last?
The effects of lip fillers typically last for up to six months, however, this can vary depending on the type of product used.
Will my skin appear frozen and unnatural?
No, lip filler will not make your skin appear frozen or unnatural. The results should be natural and subtle, enhancing your lips and mouth rather than changing them completely.
Is the process painful?
The procedure is relatively painless, but everyone’s pain threshold varies. The use of local anaesthetic treatments and numbing creams can be used to minimise any discomfort and this will be discussed prior to your lip filler treatment.
Are there any side effects?
Side effects are relatively rare, however, like any other medical procedure there may be some risks involved depending upon the area treated and your cosmetic practitioner will discuss this fully before your treatment. Some immediate effects include tenderness, redness, swelling and bruising. These effects usually subside in a few days.
What is the cost?
The cost of treatment varies depending on the area to be treated, the type of lip filler that is required, the volume of lip filler needed and the number of treatments recommended. During your consultation, one of our cosmetic practitioners will determine the amount of lip filler needed, which can be immediately followed by your treatment. Before your treatment begins, you will always be asked to approve the number of units and the cost.
