Lip fillers

People with thin lips often seek lip fillers as a cosmetic solution to enhance their lip volume and achieve a fuller, more pronounced pout. Ideal candidates for lip fillers are those who are looking to enhance the appearance of their lips by adding volume, shape, or structure.

At Dr. Ducu Clinics, we exclusively utilise dermal fillers from reputable brands, ensuring that all products meet the highest standards of safety and effectiveness. In your consultation, our doctor will carefully determine the most appropriate filler type for your needs, considering the level of contouring required, and the outcomes you wish to achieve.

The effects of lip fillers are visible immediately after the procedure, although the final results are more apparent once the initial swelling and bruising subside. This usually takes around 1 to 2 weeks. During this period, the filler settles into place, and the lips adjust to their new shape and volume, revealing the complete outcome of the treatment.

Lip fillers aren’t permanent and dissolve naturally over time. Depending on which filler you choose, the results of the injections can last from six months to over a year.

While lip filler treatment carries minimal risks, some possible side effects include temporary swelling, bruising, and tenderness at the injection sites.

After the procedure the following activities are forbidden, for at least 3 weeks in most cases: manipulating the area(s) of injection, alcohol use, exposure to sun or other types of radiations, extreme temperatures (such as hot/cold showers, sauna, etc), using products for skin that are not recommended by the doctor for the area undergoing the procedure, makeup (may be not recommended for a period of time), any movements or actions of/on the area that can affect or traumatise the area (such as massaging the area, hitting, procedures or treatments on the area unless previously being assessed and deemed suitable by a healthcare practitioner).

There may be some swelling and bruising post procedure whichis a normal reaction, if any concerns please contact the Dr Ducu London team. We will always keep in contact with you to ensure you are well and for any enquires please feel free to contact us any time.

 You can express your desired outcome to your provider and they will devise a treatment plan that best suits you. Ultimately, the decision hinges on whether you prefer a significantly fuller pout or merely wish to enhance your lips with a slight increase in volume.

The price it’s determinate by the amount that the doctor will be using to achieve the results and the number of areas that need to be treated. The best course of action will be to book in a consultation with one of our doctors.

Wearing glasses after nose filler injections typically won’t damage the filler itself, but it may affect the distribution of the filler. It’s advisable to avoid wearing glasses or any other items that put pressure on the nose for the first few days after the procedure.

Lip fillers, when administered correctly by a qualified professional, are safe and do not cause permanent damage to the lips. However, they can cause allergic reactions or other side effects, but their risk is minimum.
