What are Lip Fillers?
Lip Filler treatment is a popular non-surgical treatment to boost both the shape and volume of the lips via the injection of Dermal Filler.
Lip volume can be depleted leading to a thinner, flatter appearance for a number of reasons, including ageing or weight loss.Wrinkles and fine lines may also appear, contributing to a less toned look with a less defined lip border and a flattened cupid's bow, creating an overall tired and aged appearance.
Lip Fillers can provide a quick, safe and effective solution to reverse these symptoms and deliver improved lip volume and contour.
At Altan Tekin Clinic, we only use licensed products by JUVÉDERM® or RESTYLANE®. These are made from the naturally occurring substance Hyaluronic Acid to plump up the skin. The Fillers will dissolve over time and are reabsorbed into the body. Temporary Fillers are the safest and lower the risk of any long term side effects from occurring.
The results of Lip Filler treatment can last between 6-12 months, although this varies from person to person. The treatment will need to be repeated in order to maintain your results.
Why Do People Have Lip Filler?
Lip Filler is designed to address a range of functional and medical concerns, and can also achieve aesthetic improvements:
Medical reasons:
To correct asymmetry or shape irregularities following trauma, scarring, or congenital differences such as cleft lip scarring.
To restore lip structure and hydration in cases of thinning caused by medical treatment or conditions.
Aesthetic reasons:
To enhance lip volume and definition for a fuller, natural-looking result.
To refine lip balance and contour in harmony with surrounding facial features.
To restore youthful lip shape and softness, improving confidence in facial expression.
Benefits of Lip Filler
Lip Filler is a very popular treatment among people of all ages for many different reasons:
Increased lip volume - For people with small or thin lips who don't like how this makes them look, Lip Filler can be used to increase the body and volume of the lips, making them plumper.
Defined lip border - Genetics and ageing can cause the border of the lips (known as the vermillion border) to be undefined resulting in a flat appearance. By using Lip Filler, the lip border can be redefined and the projection of the lips improved. This can be combined with increasing the size of the lips, or as a standalone treatment, where the lips are kept the same size. Defining the vermillion border, and increasing the lips projection, can make the lips appear larger.
Smooth lower face - The lower portion of the face can be affected by lines and wrinkles in different areas due to loss of collagen in the skin. Lip Filler can help to add support into this area, reducing the appearance of lines and wrinkles.
Enhanced facial proportions - Either having small lips, or the upper or lower lip being larger than the other, can create an unbalanced appearance to the face. Injecting Lip Filler into the area can restore the balance of the face, creating a proportionate appearance.
Immediate results - Dermal Lip Fillers are a popular choice as the results are immediate. As soon as your consultant has completed your injections, you will be able to see your desired results.
Minimal downtime - Unlike surgical alternatives, Lip Filler treatment doesn't involve any recovery time and you will be able to return to your day to day activities, including work, sraight away. It is normal to experience some bruising or swelling for a few days following your treatment, but you won't need to adjust your plans to account for this.
No surgical intervention - Lip Filler procedures don't involve any general anaesthetic or sedation and as there is no surgical treatment involved, there are no dressings or scarring involved.
The Cost of Lip Fillers
The cost of Filler treatments at Altan Tekin Clinic may vary depending on the type of Filler and the amount needed for the treatment.
Which Parts of the Lip Can Be Enhanced with Dermal Filler?
Lip Border (Vermillion Border)
Dermal Fillers can be injected into the vermillion border to add definition and projection to the lips. This treatment will subtly help your lips to look healthier and more hydrated without dramatically affecting the size of the lips. This can be coupled with other treatments to improve lip volume.
Upper and Lower Lip
Lip Filler can help restore or increase volume to the body of the lower and upper lip. This can be a subtle enhancement or a more dramatic transformation, depending on what you hope to achieve through the treatment. This can improve the proportions of the face and address concerns such as a thin upper lip.
Cupid's Bow
The v-shape contour in the centre of the upper lip is called the cupid's bow. Dermal Lip Filler can be used to contour and add curvature to the natural lip shape. This is a good treatment if you have a flat lip. This can be coupled with Lip Filler injections to the philtrum column for an enhanced result.
Corners of the Mouth
Lines that extend from the corners of the lips down towards the chin are known as Marionette Lines. These troublesome lines can make a person appear sad or frowning. Sometimes these lines can be so severe that saliva builds up in the corners of the mouth, making the area sore. Lip Fillers can soften the lines and better support this area of the face.
Injecting Dermal Filler into the corners of the mouth can also help to lift the outer edges of the mouth creating a more open and happy expression. This is an effective treatment for people who are worried that the outer corners of their mouth droop making them look permanently sad.
Smoker's Lines
Also sometimes known as barcode lines, Smoker's Lines are the vertical fine lines that fan out from the upper lip. These lines are particularly prevalent among smokers due to the frequent pursing of the lips when smoking. These lines can add years to a person’s face and the lack of lip definition can cause lipstick to bleed, drawing further attention to the problem area. Lip border treatment can help to smooth out these wrinkles and redefine the upper lip.
Philtrum Column
The Philtrum Columns are the two raised lines that travel from the upper lip to the bottom of the nose. Some people have prominent, well defined, Philtrum Columns while others are entirely flat above the upper lip, with no natural Philtrum Columns. As we age, we lose this definition as the area above our upper lip gets longer and flatter. Creating a Philtrum Column will add curve and contouring, giving this area a youthful appearance and providing improved support to this part of the face.
Lower Face
The use of lower face treatments can help to improve the lips by providing better support to this particular facial feature. Lower face treatments can help to improve the appearance of nasolabial lines, the mental crease and jaw and chin definition.
What Does Lip Filler Involve?
Lip Fillers are injected using a very fine needle into the lip region by your qualified consultant, and deliver immediate results.
Typically, a Lip Filler treatment requires one or two vials of injectable filler, depending on your desired results. We only use Lip Fillers based on Hyaluronic Acid at Altan Tekin Clinic, a dissolvable substance that occurs naturally in the body and is completely safe to use.
Ahead of your treatment, your consultant will have a thorough consultation and assessment with you, to ensure you are suitable for Lip Filler. They may then apply a topical local anaesthetic to reduce any discomfort during the procedure.
The treatment should take approximately 15 minutes. Results can be seen straight away, although there may be some swelling and bruising which can take up to 10 days to subside.
