Lip fillers
A little goes
a long way.
Lip filler is a soft gel, based on hyaluronic acid, a substance your body makes naturally. Placed gently into the lips, it can add subtle volume, shape the edges and even out the balance, working with your natural lip shape rather than against it.
-
A soft, gel-like substance based on hyaluronic acid, placed gently into the lips to add shape and volume.
-
A non-surgical treatment used to define the lip border, add subtle fullness and balance uneven lips.
-
A temporary result the body gradually absorbs over time, so it is never permanent and can be adjusted.
Every treatment starts with a consultation, so we understand the look you want and check it is right for you before anything begins.
Add volume — subtle fullness
Define the border — a crisper edge
Balance uneven lips — evening them out
Soften lip lines — smoother texture
Restore fullness — lips that have thinned
What it can do
More than just
bigger lips.
Good lip filler is not about size, it is about balance and shape. Depending on what you want, it can do any of these, gently and in proportion with the rest of your face. Tap each to see.
Add volume
If you would like a little more fullness, filler can add it gently and evenly, keeping your lips in proportion. We build up gradually, so you end up with more of your own lip rather than an obvious change.

Define the border
A defined lip border gives shape and structure. Filler can gently sharpen the edge and the cupid's bow, which can make lips look tidier and more polished, even without much added volume.
Ask about this
Balance uneven lips
Very few lips are perfectly symmetrical, and that is normal. If it bothers you, filler can subtly even out a thinner side or an uneven curve, bringing the top and bottom into better balance.
Ask about this
Soften lip lines
Fine vertical lines on the lips, sometimes called lip lines, can be softened with a light touch of filler and hydration, smoothing the surface for a fresher look.
Ask about this
Restore fullness
Lips naturally lose a little fullness over the years. Filler can restore some of what has thinned, gently and in keeping with your face, so your lips look like they did rather than different.

Why have it done
at a dental practice?
No one knows lips and the muscles around the mouth quite like a dental professional. It is the area we work in every day, which makes a dental practice a natural and reassuring place to have lip filler done.
The mouth is what we know best.
The mouth is our home ground
Dentists spend their whole careers working around the lips and mouth, and understand the anatomy in real detail. That knowledge guides exactly where filler is placed, for a result that suits how your mouth naturally moves and smiles.
A proper chat first
We never treat on the spot. We start by understanding the look you are after, whether that is more definition or a touch of volume, check it suits your face, and are honest about what will and will not work.
Natural, never overfilled
We have all seen lips that look overdone, and that is never our aim. We work conservatively and in proportion, adding a little at a time, so the result looks like your own lips at their best rather than obviously filled.
A clean, clinical setting
A dental practice is a clinical, hygienic environment held to strict standards. You are in safe, professional hands from the moment you sit down to the aftercare advice you leave with.
How it works
What to expect.
From your first consultation to aftercare, here is how a lip filler appointment works.
We talk it through
First we listen. You tell us what you would like for your lips, more definition, a little volume, or simply better balance, and we check it suits your face and is right for you. Honest advice, no pressure.
We numb and prepare
Once you are happy to go ahead, we cleanse the lips and apply a strong numbing cream, and give it time to work. Lips are sensitive, so we make sure you are comfortable before we begin.
Careful, gradual shaping
Using fine needles or a cannula, we place the filler slowly and check the shape as we go, often sitting you up to see it in proportion. We build gradually rather than all at once, so the result stays natural and even.
Aftercare and settling
Lips often swell for a day or two, which is completely normal and settles to show the true result. We give you clear aftercare advice, and are always here if you have any questions as they settle.
