Lip Fillers

At Binsina Skin & Laser Clinic, lip fillers are a popular non-surgical treatment designed to enhance lip volume, shape, and symmetry. Lip fillers typically use hyaluronic acid (HA), a naturally occurring substance in the body known for its hydrating and volumizing properties.

This treatment is ideal for those seeking to add volume to naturally thin lips, improve lip contour, or address age-related volume loss. The treatment process involves the precise injection of hyaluronic acid-based fillers into specific areas of the lips.

A numbing cream is applied beforehand to minimise discomfort, and the procedure generally takes around 30-45 minutes. Our skilled practitioner uses fine needles to carefully shape and enhance the lips, taking your other features into account to ensure a balanced and natural look. Once injected, the hyaluronic acid binds with water molecules in the skin, hydrating and plumping the lips. Lip fillers are customisable, allowing for subtle adjustments to achieve your desired appearance without surgery or significant downtime.

Benefits of Lip Fillers

Lip fillers provide a non-surgical solution to enhance lip volume, shape, and symmetry for a more youthful, balanced appearance.

  • Enhances Volume: Adds fullness to naturally thin lips or addresses age-related volume loss for a plumper look.
  • Defines Shape: Improves lip contour and enhances the natural lip line for a more defined and balanced appearance.
  • Non-Surgical: A minimally invasive procedure with little downtime, making it convenient for those seeking subtle lip enhancement.
  • Hydrated Lips: Hyaluronic acid fillers provide deep hydration, keeping lips moisturised and reducing the appearance of fine lines.

Are Lip Fillers right for you?

With lip fillers, you can expect immediate improvement in lip volume, shape, and contour right after the treatment. Initial swelling may make the lips appear fuller than the final result, but this typically subsides within 1-2 days.

Full results become visible within a week, revealing more natural-looking lips as the filler settles and swelling fully reduces. Lip fillers typically last between 6-12 months, depending on factors such as the type of filler used and individual metabolism. To maintain the enhanced look, touch-up treatments are recommended as lip fillers will gradually dissolve. We often recommend repeating the treatment every 9-12 months based on your desired level of fullness and natural volume retention.
