During our focused consultation, we'll explore options for addressing concerns in areas surrounding the lips, such as the corners of the mouth and lines that may appear around the lips or extend downward from the corners. We'll discuss personalised approaches and evaluate how enhancing these areas can contribute to your overall facial aesthetics. Join us to determine the most beneficial strategy for your individual needs.

We do not have a signature lip filler technique at Aesthetic Avenue. Our techniques when approaching Lip Filler treatments are tailored to each individual, their unique anatomy and aesthetic goals. A “signature technique” is like having a cookie cutter approach and treating each individual the same, regardless of their anatomy or aesthetic goals.

This will vary from individual to individual and the rate at which their filler metabolises, as well as the product being used. As a guide 6-18 months. This will be discussed during your consultation.

You can book for either or. During the consultation process we discuss your anatomy and desired goals. Nurse Raluka will together with you create a treatment plan and explain product and quantity recommendations and options. Our goals is always natural looking lips. It is important to note that the lips start to swell as they are being injected, and the result you see immediately is not how they will settle.

Yes it will. The swelling is worst during the first 24-48 hour period. By 72 hours some swelling will start to subside. Please allow up to 2 weeks for any residual swelling to subside. Some patients swell significantly whilst others may not have much swelling at all. Nurse Raluka will explain the lip filler healing process - Trust, they will settle.

Minor lumps and bumps post lip filler are normal. We advise not to massage the lips, but to attend your 2 week complimentary follow up appointment. Nurse Raluka will massage your lips and together you will assess your treatment outcome. Dermal Filler can take 2-6 weeks to fully integrate into your tissue.

During the first 2 weeks, your lips may also feel tight, tender and firm, as they start to integrate they will soften.

Swelling and bruising may results from injections and is variable from individual to individual. Usually, swelling in the lips is more significant. You will be provided with a take home ice pack to assist in the management of swelling and bruising.

The key to achieving natural results is the provider that you choose, their technique, and the quality of product that they provide treatment with. The most important factor would be picking the right provider. We encourage clients to seek multiple opinions.

Pain is a very subjective experience and each individual has a different pain threshold. At Aesthetic Avenue we aim to make you as comfortable as possible during your procedure. We utilise strong topical anaesthetic, ice, stress balls and distraction induced analgesia (vibration device).

This will vary from treatment to treatment and the number of areas we are addressing at one time. Procedure time can range from 30 minutes to 60 minutes.

All appointments allow time for a consultation prior to treatment to discuss your concerns, devise a treatment plan and answer any questions.

At Aesthetic Avenue, you will never feel rushed.

All medical procedures carry a degree of risk. The main side effects and risks associated with Lip Filler are: bleeding, bruising, swelling and small chance of infection. A rare complication is called a “Vascular Occlusion”. This is when dermal filler is inadvertently injected into a blood vessel, and can impair the blood flow to the area of skin/tissue. This is reversible but it needs to be dissolved immediately. If it happens at the time of injection it will be reversed straight away. Nurse Raluka will educate you regarding the signs and symptoms to look out for which include excessive pain, white or patchy discolouration at or near the site of injection. You will be provided with an after hour number to contact Nurse Raluka should you have any concerns or questions.

Unfortunately we cannot treat anyone under the age of 18, even with parental consent.
