Ageing can cause changes in our lips, they can begin to flatten and lines around the mouth can appear. Dermal Lip Fillers are used to put back volume in the lips and restore the equilibrium and shape.

Cosmetic doctors and nurses can address loss of volume with the latest dermal filler preparations and injecting techniques, it requires no surgery, no downtime and minimal discomfort.

Our experienced injectors can give you that natural look you desire, using only the best dermal filler formulations.

  • Dermal Fillers are a gel made of naturally occurring substance that is also in your skin. Our experienced injectors use it to put back volume in the lips and restore the equilibrium and shape.

  • Some of the reasons people consider Dermal Fillers for the lips are:

    to add volume to the lips

    to reduce lines around the mouth

    to redefine the lip border

    to lift the lips so they have a younger-looking appearance.

    Turning the corners of the mouth for a lighter expression…

    With age the corners of the mouth can drop, projecting a glum expression. The patient below has had the corners of her mouth lifted and the top border of the mouth enhanced to take years off her appearance.

    Looking for the Perfect Pout……

    If you are looking for a pair of luscious lips, filler can be used to plump out the top and bottom lips for that perfect pout.

    Smokers Lines

    Smoking accelerates the aging process. The tell-tale signs of lines around the top lip can be smoothed with filler.

    Lip Definition

    With age the lip line can become less defined, causing the lip to lose its natural pout and lipsticks to bleed. This can be addressed with a little dermal filler injected into the border.

    Gummy Smile

    These days there is always someone there with a camera of truth, that inevitably, images are downloaded from and posted mercilessly on Facebook – if a gummy smile is making you cringe and spend most of the day untagging yourself from your best friend’s profile, you may wish to consider adjusting your smile with non-surgical injectable therapy.

  • You will have an initial consultation where your expectations and desired outcomes will be discussed. Our clinical aesthetics team may also provide information on other treatments such as Anti-Wrinkle Muscle Relaxants and other comprehensive Facial Rejuvenation treatments that we offer at our clinic that may be suitable.

    If you would like numbing cream to be applied prior to your procedure, please do not hesitate to ask. Ideally, this should to be done half an hour prior to your procedure, but even 10 minutes of application of numbing cream may help. We often use ice as well to minimise discomfort. We pride ourselves on making your experience as comfortable as possible.

    The procedure will take approximately an hour, which includes the numbing time. One of our clinical aesthetic team will gently inject the Dermal Filler under your skin to provide plumpness to your lips and restoring their equilibrium and shape. They will then gently massage the treated areas.

    After your treatment, there is minimal downtime or recovery.

    You may experience slight swelling, redness, pain and firmness to the treated areas. These symptoms are usually mild to moderate and improve after approximately 7 days or less. You can use an ice pack on the area treated if you have any swelling. If symptoms persist or you have any concerns, please do not hesitate to contact our clinic on 07 3003 4000.

    You should see immediate results from your Dermal Filler treatment and results can last for up to 12 months, but results may vary and touch up treatments may be required to reach your desired results at an additional cost.

    If you are unhappy with the results of your Lip Filler treatment, at Cosmetic Image Clinics we can reduce the amount of filler with a product specifically for this purpose. It can provide comfort to some to know that this is available and that results can be reversed if so desired.

  • You may experience slight swelling, redness, tenderness and firmness to the treated areas. These symptoms are usually mild to moderate and improve over the ensuing days. You can use an ice pack on the area treated if you have any swelling and take Panadol, which is rarely required. (Please do not use Ibuprofen/Nurofen as this increases your risk of bruising).

    If symptoms persist or you have any concerns, please do not hesitate to contact our clinic on 07 3003 4000.

    Dermal fillers have not been tested on pregnant or breast feeding women and therefore should not be used during these times.

  • Dermal Skin Fillers have been available for over 20 years and at Cosmetic Image Clinics the fillers we use have been fully tested and undergone rigorous quality assurance.
