What is involved in the treatment?

Dermal lip fillers are always administered by our fully-qualified and trained practitioners which can help to plump-up the lips and give them a naturally-looking glow. Each practitioner who administers synthetic fillers will have gone through the relevant training course and certification. The fillers that are used on the lips will be of a smooth-like consistency, and those with a more granular consistency will be avoided to give each patient optimal lip skin smoothing, lifting, and tightening.

What products are used?

At Synergy Dental, our practitioners use a range of different products that can either be chosen by the patient or professionally recommended. We generally use a safe Juvederm treatment as a first choice, but patients will be given information on other types of products to choose from as well. The products used at Synergy will never be permeant (lasting anything from 9 months to a year) which can be a huge advantage for those unsure about making a permanent commitment to the look.

How is the procedure done?

The treatment itself is quite simple and pain-free. This is because all dermal filler treatments are done by trained professionals. The treatment only involved being injected with a series of small injections in the relevant areas. This may be slightly more sensitive when being done around the lips – compared with other areas of the face – but local anaesthetic can be used to numb the area being injected.

The treatment should take no longer than 20-30 minutes, with little recovery needed. It is recommended, though, to have a period of rest for the first 24 hours after the treatment session. Expect some mild swelling, soreness, and redness during this period. These side effects should decline over 24 to 48 hours.

Who will benefit the most from the treatment?

The treatment is usually catered to individuals who feel that their lips are not emphasized enough naturally. This can often damage a person’s self-image and can make them feel quite insecure. The treatment gives the option for people to come and tweak fine details of their lips in order to get the result they want.
