Refresh Your Skin and Rejuvenate Your Body
Lip fillers are one of our most popular treatments at Malan Aesthetics, Selby. They are a dermal filler treatment in the lip and work to add volume to thin lips, correct uneven lip shape, smooth out smoker’s lines and we have also treated scars on the lips with dermal fillers. We do not use permanent lip fillers at Malan Aesthetics so top up treatments will be required. Lip fillers can last between 6 to 12 months.

The treatment itself involves application of a cream to numb the lips, so that the treatment is comfortable. A tiny needle is placed into the lips or lipstick lines to give the desired results. The treatment usually takes around 30 minutes. There is usually some swelling after the treatment; this can be reduced with the application of an ice pack. You may experience some pin-point bleeding but this will stop very quickly. Initially, there is some swelling and the lips may feel bigger than you would like. However, please bear in mind that the swelling will soon go down to reveal the final result. This usually takes a week to 2 weeks but can take longer. We may advise you to apply arnica cream to reduce bruising but it also helps to hydrate the lips as the swelling settles. Occasionally, you may be able to feel the filler, in which case gentle massage may be helpful. We are always here to support you after the treatment so anything you are concerned about, you can always return for review.

As thinning lips become a common reality as we get older, the safe and effective anti ageing treatment of lip enhancement has become increasingly popular. The best way to give lips a fuller, plumper appearance – and hence a more attractive, youthful appearance – is to restore lost volume and moisture with fillers that contain the body’s own natural material, hyaluronic acid. Lip augmentation is the most common form of treatment to subtly smooth fine lines around the mouth.

Lip injections are a dermal filler treatment in the lips. It can add volume to thin lips, correct uneven lip shape, smooth out smoker’s lines and we have also treated scars on the lips with dermal fillers.
It is made of Hyaluronic Acid (HA), which is a substance that naturally occurs in the dermis of the skin. It can be found in many beauty products, as it is a hydrophilic molecule, meaning that it attracts water. It can hold up to 1000 x its own weight in water making it an excellent hydrator. Some common brands of lip injections are Restylane, Juvederm, Beloterol, Teosayal, Emervel now rebranded with Restylane, Perfectha etc.
Lip injections are a cosmetic treatment, and like all medical procedures, there is always a chance that something could go wrong. However, if performed by experienced and qualified practitioners, it is a safe procedure.
The legislation in the UK for those offering injectable treatments is practically non-existent. You can go to a plastic surgeon, a dermatologist, a cosmetic doctor, a dentist, a nurse, and even a chiropodist or a beautician or indeed anyone who advertises the treatment! Non-medical practitioners definitely will not be able to look after you or prescribe if anything unexpected happens. What’s more, qualified experienced practitioners will be able to use an enzyme to dissolve the filler should that be advised.
It might be difficult to believe from the horror stories out there, but the treatment is not that painful. Of course, the discomfort level will mostly depend on your doctor’s technique and your own pain tolerance - swelling and bruising will occur.
This varies depending on the product used, the amount of filler used and the injector’s technique. There is always some degree of swelling which naturally resolves over a week or two. Application of ice post treatment helps to reduce swelling and bruising.
Fillers at Malan Aesthetics are only carried out by qualified but even more importantly very experienced dental nurse. Your lips should be fuller and smoother without the appearance of lumps inside the lips or above the lips.
