Using only the leading and trusted brands, lip fillers are an effective way to restore volume to the lips. Through a series of small injections to the upper and lower lip, a fuller more defined look can be achieved. Based on the results you’re looking for, Dr Dodd will be able to define the quantity of filler required and where it should be placed to create the right level of plumpness.
Results can last up to 12 months, but this can vary depending on a number of factors including the volume injected and lifestyle factors such as smoking and sun exposure.
What to expect during treatment
Similar to anti-wrinkle injections, lip fillers are administered with a needle. As it’s a sensitive area, Dr Dodd can numb the lips with a cream or injection. This makes the treatment pain-free and you’re unlikely to feel the needle at all.
Is it right for me?
Speak to Dr Dodd about the results you’re looking for. He’ll be able to assess your suitability by asking a few questions about your general health – he’ll also look at the volume in your lips currently and advise what areas are best to focus on.
What happens afterwards?
It’s completely normal for your lips to swell after treatment and in the subsequent days. Don’t worry if your lips look bigger than you expected – much of this will be swelling and will settle down in a matter of days. Dr Dodd typically advises his patients to apply ice to the area to help take down some of the inflammation.
