Hyaluronic acid lip fillers to add volume and refine shape and definition — tailored to your natural lip anatomy.
Lip fillers are used to add volume and refine the shape and definition of the lips, tailored to your existing lip anatomy and aesthetic goals.
Patients may choose lip filler treatment for a fuller or more defined appearance, depending on their individual goals.
Balanced approach: we consider lip anatomy, proportions and your goals when planning treatment.
Lip filler treatment uses dermal filler containing hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in the body that retains moisture. It can add volume and improve contour and definition, depending on the amount used, anatomy and goals.
Hyaluronic acid lip fillers commonly last around 6 to 9 months, although longevity varies. The filler is gradually broken down by the body, and further treatment may be considered.
Products and injection areas are selected according to your lip anatomy and agreed treatment plan, aiming for balanced volume, shape and definition.
Every treatment starts with a consultation, and our practitioners undertake ongoing training in aesthetic techniques and clinical practice.
A lip lift is a surgical procedure that shortens the distance between the upper lip and the base of the nose, altering the position and appearance of the upper lip.
In contrast, lip fillers involve injecting hyaluronic acid into the lips to add volume, shape, and definition.
During the procedure, the lips are cleaned and a topical numbing cream may be applied to help reduce discomfort.
The practitioner may gently massage the treated area where clinically appropriate.
After lip filler treatment, you will receive aftercare advice to help manage common temporary effects such as swelling, bruising and tenderness.
You should follow your practitioner’s instructions regarding pressure, massage or manipulation of the treated area.
A lip lift and lip fillers are both cosmetic procedures designed to enhance the appearance of the lips, but they differ in their approach and results.
Results – A lip lift creates a long-term change in lip position, whereas lip fillers provide temporary volume enhancement.
Effects are temporary and commonly last around 6–9 months, depending on the product, individual factors and metabolism.
Suitability is confirmed only after an in-person consultation with one of our practitioners.
Both enhance the appearance of the lips, but they differ in approach, results and recovery.
Each procedure has different considerations, benefits and risks depending on your goals. Book a consultation to discuss which option may be appropriate for you.
A lip lift changes the position of the upper lip, while lip fillers add volume. Your practitioner will explain which approach, if any, suits your anatomy and goals during consultation.
A practitioner assesses your facial structure, discusses your goals and explains the available options.
You can ask questions, and suitability is assessed before any treatment.
The lips are cleaned and a topical numbing cream may be applied. Hyaluronic acid filler is injected into selected areas according to the agreed plan.
Swelling, bruising and tenderness are common and temporary. A cold compress, avoiding strenuous exercise and staying hydrated may be advised.
Changes may be visible immediately, while the final result is assessed once swelling settles. Effects commonly last around 6–9 months; longevity varies.
Individual results vary.
Lip fillers can temporarily enhance the volume, shape and definition of the lips. The extent of change varies with anatomy, product and treatment plan.

Lip fillers may be considered by adults who wish to add volume, refine shape or improve definition of the lips. Suitability depends on individual anatomy, medical history, treatment goals and clinical assessment during consultation.
At Dr. Ducu Clinics, we use dermal fillers from established manufacturers. During your consultation, the practitioner will determine an appropriate filler type based on your individual anatomy, treatment goals and the degree of contouring or volume required.
Changes in lip volume may be visible immediately after the procedure, although swelling and bruising can temporarily affect the appearance. The result is generally assessed once these initial effects have settled, commonly within around 1 to 2 weeks, although recovery varies between patients.
Lip fillers are temporary and are gradually broken down by the body. The effects commonly last around 6 to 9 months, although longevity varies between patients and products.
Lip filler treatment carries risks and possible side effects. Common temporary effects include swelling, bruising, redness and tenderness at the injection sites. Less common but potentially serious complications can occur, and these will be discussed during your consultation before treatment.
Following our clinical aftercare protocols, you must avoid alcohol consumption and significant heat exposure, such as saunas, steam rooms and hot showers, for the first 24 to 48 hours to minimise swelling and bruising. You must also avoid applying makeup for the rest of the day and strictly avoid massaging, pressing or manipulating the lips for at least 7 days to allow the filler to settle properly into the targeted tissue.
You can discuss your desired outcome with your practitioner, who will recommend an appropriate treatment plan based on your existing lip anatomy, individual goals and clinical assessment. The amount of filler required varies between patients.
The price is determined by the treatment plan and the amount of filler required. Book a consultation with one of our practitioners to discuss the treatment options and associated costs.
Most patients find the discomfort manageable. We apply a strong topical numbing cream for 20 to 30 minutes before treatment, and the dermal fillers we use also contain the local anaesthetic lidocaine.
Lip fillers carry risks even when administered by an appropriately trained practitioner. Possible complications include swelling, bruising, infection, allergic reactions, asymmetry, lumps and, rarely, vascular complications that may cause tissue damage. Your practitioner will discuss relevant risks and suitability with you before treatment.
At consultation we assess your anatomy and goals, and explain options, limitations and risks before any treatment.
