Lips that have thinned, lost their definition, or feel dry and lined around the mouth. It can be volume, it can be hydration, it can be both — and the right treatment depends on which it is.
Three things tend to happen to lips over time:
Any one of these can happen on its own or in combination. The treatment depends on which is the primary concern — volume, definition, or lines — and that's what the consultation determines.
Thin lips and perioral lines are partly a volume and partly a hydration problem. Lip balms hydrate the surface and can make the lips feel better, but they can't restore volume that's been lost or redefine a border that's softened. Fine lines around the mouth are often partly muscle-driven (from pursing the lips), which no cream can address.
How we treat it
Hyaluronic acid filler to restore lip volume and definition, or skin boosters to hydrate fine perioral lines. Tailored to your lips and what you want. From £210.
Lip thinning and lost definition are volume problems, so the treatment restores volume. Lip filler is hyaluronic acid gel — the substance already in your skin — placed precisely to restore the fullness and definition that age has taken. The aim is proportion and shape, not size. A good lip treatment is about the right amount in the right place, not more.
For fine lines around the mouth, the approach depends on the cause: if they're volume-driven, a small amount of filler smooths them. If they're muscle-driven, anti-wrinkle can relax the pursing action. Often a combination works best. The consultation determines the right approach for your lips.
A consultation first. Georgie will look at your lips, listen to what you'd like to change, and tell you honestly what's achievable. The treatment takes 30–45 minutes. There will be swelling for 24–48 hours — this is normal and settles. Bruising is possible. Final results settle over two weeks.
Not suitable during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or with certain active lip infections.
Lip enhancement restores natural-looking volume and definition when the aim is proportion and shape. What it shouldn't do is make you look different — the aim is a better version of your lips, not someone else's. If you're worried about looking overdone, that's the right worry to have, and it's why the consultation matters: we start conservative and build. You can always add more; you can't easily take it back.
Lip enhancement with hyaluronic acid filler hydrates the lip from within and smooths the fine vertical lines. It restores natural shape rather than adding volume you don't want.
Natural results come from understanding lip anatomy and using the right amount of product. Overfilling is what creates the 'trout pout' — not filler itself. The aim is proportion and definition, not size.
Yes. Fine vertical lines around the mouth (barcode lines) can be treated with small amounts of filler or anti-wrinkle, depending on whether they're caused by volume loss or muscle action. A consultation determines the right approach.
Hyaluronic acid fillers are the most-used type of dermal filler and have a strong safety profile. They're reversible if needed. As with any injection, there's a small risk of bruising, swelling, or lumpiness, which the consultation covers.
