With almost immediate results, the aim of the treatment is to create a natural, soft look that adds fullness and will last for up to six months.
This is achieved using our highest quality, hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers; a smooth gel which is injected into the treatment area by our fully-trained medical professionals.
It works by not only plumping the lip directly but also trapping water within lips for a natural, plump pout and reducing elasticity.
This will give your lips a youthful and rejuvenated appearance and can also be used for things like lifting the corners of the mouth.
Over time, your body will break down the filler, making this a perfectly safe and non-permanent treatment. However, with our expertise, we will ensure you have fabulous and long-lasting results that you can be proud of.
Here at S-Thetics Clinic, our team will help you to create the exact look you want, whether that is a subtle change or much fuller lips, using a personalised treatment plan agreed upon during your detailed consultation prior to any treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions
Lip Fillers
1. What results can I expect?
This short treatment is ideal for adding the volume and definition you desire to your mouth. Our team, who have extensive medical training, will use only the best dermal filler products to create a stunning look that suits your face.
Miss Sherina Balaratnam is one of the UK’s most experienced practitioners in this field, holding the prestigious title of ‘Local Country Ambassador’ (LCA) for Allergan, the manufacturers of BOTOX and the Juvederm range of dermal fillers.
Her ‘less is more’ approach and overwhelming experience in facial anatomy means you will be in the best hands when undergoing your treatment – and don’t worry, there won’t be any ‘duck lips’ here!
We only use the highest grade medical products, meaning your results will be natural, subtle and expertly created to give you the lips you have always wanted.
While you will instantly notice a difference, it is also important to be aware that it can take up to two or three weeks for the product to completely settle.
However, longevity of the results can be affected by lifestyle factors, such as smoking or sun exposure, as these can affect how quickly your body breaks down the filler.
2. How does it work?
Around 20-30 minutes prior to the treatment, a member of our medical team will apply an anaesthetic to your lips, which should make the treatment more comfortable. They will then use a fine needle to inject the filler into strategic spots, creating your desired look.
3. Is there any downtime?
Post-treatment, your lips may feel tender and sore for the first couple of days, giving you the sensation that something is ‘in’ your lips. Don’t worry, this is completely normal.
With lip fillers, we would recommend avoiding make-up on the area for around 12 hours. However, we would also ask patients to avoid extreme warm environments such as saunas or sunbeds for up to two weeks post-treatment.
Your practitioner will give you a full brief on how to look after your lips following the procedure to ensure you get the best results.
4. Is this treatment suitable for me?
At S-Thetics Clinic, we believe a detailed consultation and full VISIA skin analysis are essential before performing any treatment.
It is during this consultation that we will discuss your suitability for lip fillers, though, generally they can be used on a wide range of patients.
However, filler treatments are not suitable if you are pregnant, breastfeeding or undergoing IVF.
5. Are there any side effects?
As with any medical procedure, there is a risk of unwanted side effects with HA dermal filler treatments. Most side effects are normally short-lived and often relate to the injection procedure.
Following injection, there may be redness, slight swelling, or bruising around the injection area but these usually only last a few days.
