Lip fillers are very popular with young persons at the moment. They can definitely enhance the lips in younger patients who feel unhappy about the volume or shape of their lips. The results depend on what the patient requires and also the skill of the practitioner. If the patient wants to have larger lips we carefully assess the balance of the features of the face to make sure that the resulting enhanced lips are balanced and still look natural.

 

The lips change as we age. Lip fillers can be used to to restore the volume that is reduced as people age. Due to the natural process of ageing people lose subcutaneous fat and volume of the lips. The lip line can become less defined and people notice that lipstick may bleed into the skin around the lips. The lips lose their softness and can look dry and thin.

 

At Mid Kent Aesthetics Clinic we aspire to achieve natural lip enhancement, adding volume to the lips, contouring and shaping the lip outline and boosting our clients’ confidence with small amounts of dermal filler such as JUVÉDERM.

 

The dermal filler is injected to the area with either a cannula or needle depending on the needs of the patient. Some patients will want only slight natural augmentation to recreate the plumpness lost over time. A younger patient could require more volume to the lips that they feel would improve the overall balance of their face.

The natural Juvéderm fillers that we prefer are reversable, unlike many other forms of fillers.
