Lip fillers have really taken the world by storm this year with the likes of Kylie Jenner and Essex girl Megan McKenna (finally) admitting to having the beauty treatment. With the most popular trend among celebs currently being the ‘big lipped look’, you’d be surprised by the many benefits of having the treatment aside from a more prominent pout. Lip fillers can really be enjoyed by anyone, whether you’re seeking to enhance your natural look, you want larger lips, a more defined cupids bow, or want to add symmetry to uneven lips, fillers could benefit you.

So what are fillers?

The procedure consists of is a sterile injectable gel, consisting of hyaluronic acid (HA) – a protein naturally found in the collagen of the skin, and is FDA approved for lip augmentation and dermal fillers in adults. In short, it’s an injection into your lip/lip area. At Aesthetics of Essex we use Juvéderm, which is the leading product in the fillers market. You can read more about Juvéderm here.

How long does the procedure last and does it hurt?

The gel will be injected to your target area using a fine needle and syringe. Prior to this a numbing cream will be applied 10-30 minutes before the procdure to help reduce pain and make the treatment more comfortable. The treatment is non-invasive and has a short down time, continuing your daily routine straight after.

 

How long does it last?

The treatment can also be expected to last up to 8 months, but this varies patient to patient. You will see the results immediately, although it is usually advised you gradually build up size for more natural results.

 

What is the cost?

Fillers cost around £200 – £1000+. However, Aesthetics of Essex are currently offering a reduced price on 0.5ml and 1.0ml of Lip Filler. Contact them here to claim your discount today (the offer is limited and is only running until December so be sure to be quick).

 

Are fillers right for me?

Lip fillers can help restore lost volume and definition. After our lips reach their maximum volume as a young adult, plumping them back up again requires a less natural, but nevertheless, welcome helping hand. However, if your still unsure about whether fillers are right for you, and we don’t blame you after seeing the horror stories of Geordie Shore star Sophie Kasaei and many others botched lips from unprofessional clinic or even ‘do it yourself packs’, be rest assured you’re in the best place with our clinic.  As award winning cosmetics doctor and lip expert Dr Esho from E4’s Body Shockers states:

“Research is key and finding a skilled medically qualified injector is essential. Check qualifications. NHS England recommends injectables should only be carried out by either a surgeon, doctor, dentist or nurse.

Review websites such as the good surgeon guide are a also a great resource as they allow you to see previous reviews by patients on registered medical injectors.

And always ask lots of questions!”
