Lip Augmentation (Hyaluronic Acid)

Hyaluronic acid lip enhancement to add subtle volume, improve symmetry and define the lip border, planned to stay in proportion with the rest of the face. Smaller 0.5 ml sessions suit first-timers or gentle refreshes, while 1 ml allows more shaping. A hydrating option with added vitamins is available for lips that mainly need moisture and a tidy border rather than extra volume.

Lip augmentation at MediArt Clinic uses soft, cross-linked hyaluronic acid filler to enhance the lips' volume, shape and border definition while keeping movement and proportion natural. Treatment starts with a discussion of your goals — more hydration and a defined border, a little extra volume, or correction of asymmetry — and the doctor recommends a volume accordingly, often starting conservatively with 0.5 ml for first-time patients. A strong topical anaesthetic is applied and the filler products also contain lidocaine, so the procedure is generally well tolerated. The gel is placed with a fine needle or cannula and shaped by hand; results are immediate, though lips commonly swell for a day or two and small bruises can occur. Final shape is usually clear within one to two weeks. Hyaluronic acid lip filler is generally associated with a duration of several months as the lips are mobile and metabolise filler relatively quickly. For patients whose main concern is dryness, a hydrating formulation with added vitamins is offered. As with all hyaluronic acid treatments the result can be dissolved with hyaluronidase if you wish to adjust or reverse it. Lip enhancement is for adults seeking subtle, balanced lips; suitability is confirmed at consultation.
