Lip Fillers

When you come into Este Medical for a lip filler treatment, one of our skilled team will gently inject the specific area with lip filler using a small needle. This lip filler (also known as dermal filler) is made of synthetic Hyaluronic Acid which is found naturally within our bodies.

It’s this substance that helps to keep our skin firm and full looking. As we age, the levels of Hyaluronic Acid deplete and so the appearance of our skin can ‘sag’. When you have a lip filler treatment you are ‘topping up’ those levels of Hyaluronic Acid and filling in those gaps where the skin has lost its support structure.

At Este Medical we believe that lip fillers are safe. The procedure is conducted safely and hygienically by a trained professional so that you can feel confident in the experience. Of course, as with all treatments, there is always a small risk of unwanted side effects. These, however, are rare.

Reactions to lip filler treatments vary from person to person, and for some, lip fillers can make their lips bleed. However, you can take precautions to minimise this potential side effect by ensuring you don’t drink alcohol for at least two days before and after your treatment.

Lip fillers are made from a synthetic non-animal based form of Hyaluronic Acid. This is a product that is found naturally within the body.

The effects of lip fillers differ from person to person and results do vary. It is usual for results to last up to six to nine months. This all depends on the area treated, the amount of product used, and your body’s response to the filler.
