What happens in my lip filler appointment?
1- Consultation- this is to ensure that this treatment is suitable for you. Your medical and social history will be discussed in order to create a treatment plan. Photographs will also be taken for medical records to record the results of the treatment, don't worry these don't go anywhere! We may ask you if you're happy to use some photographs for marketing purposes. If you're not happy for them to be shared, just let us know! 2- Cleaning: Making sure the skin is free from any bacteria is essential to safe and infection-free treatment. Your skin will be cleaned with a specialised disinfectant. It is useful, therefore to not wear makeup to your appointment. 3- Anaesthetic: Either the topical anaesthetic is applied to the lips or a dental block is given. 4- Injection of filler: Careful injections into the surrounding areas of the lips, and then the volume. Initially, any asymmetry is corrected, and then full shape and volume are created. 5- Postoperative Photographs: So we can show you before and after pictures of your lovely lips! 6/ Postoperative instructions : see below.
