Lip fillers in Basingstoke — lips that look like yours, only better.

What it is

Lips are a focal point of the face, giving balance and composition to the features around them. Whether yours are thinner than you’d like, you want to enhance your Cupid’s bow, or perioral lines make you look older than you feel, we can help.

Our lip fillers are composed of hyaluronic acid, formulated to integrate with your lip tissue for a smooth, natural-looking enhancement. We offer 0.55, 0.7 and 1ml — but you won’t be expected to know what you need. We establish that in the consultation, where you tell us your aims and we make sure your expectations are realistic.

What it treats

• Thin or uneven lips — subtle volume to balance the top and bottom lip.
• Lost lip definition — sharpening the vermilion border as it blurs with age.
• Smoker's lines — the vertical lines above the lip.
• Downturned mouth corners — a small lift for a more neutral resting expression.
• Dry, crepey lip texture — hydration-focused options for natural improvement.

What our clients ask for

• Reduction of perioral lines (smokers' lines)
• The “Russian lips” / heart-shaped look
• Added volume, for a healthy, hydrated appearance
• Restored balance, symmetry and proportion
• Added definition and a stronger Cupid's bow
• An improved smile or a corrected downturned mouth

Pricing

What to expect

A comprehensive consultation comes first, then a strong anaesthetic cream. We only use fillers with added anaesthetic in them. There’s some soreness and swelling afterwards, which reduces within a few days.

Your body gradually breaks the filler down — results last around 6 months to a year, and top-ups prolong the effect. If you’re unhappy with the result, the filler can be safely dissolved with hyaluronidase.

The evidence

Lip filler uses the same hyaluronic acid technology as dermal fillers, and the trial evidence for HA lip augmentation is solid. Randomised and controlled studies of HA fillers in the lips show significant improvement in lip fullness and lip contour scored by blinded assessors, with correction typically maintained for around 6–12 months before a top-up. Patient satisfaction in these trials is consistently high. What the research is honest about: swelling for a few days after treatment is expected; overfilling is a technique problem, not a product problem; and the results are temporary — the body gradually metabolises the hyaluronic acid.

Aftercare

• Some tenderness, swelling, lumps or unevenness for up to 14 days (mostly settled within 72 hours); a chance of bruising.
• Drink plenty of water. Avoid alcohol, ibuprofen and vitamin A/E/fish oils for 48 hours either side of the appointment.
• No makeup for 6 hours, no exercise for 24 hours, no flight for 72 hours, and avoid excess heat (sunbeds, saunas, holidays) for 7 days.

Common questions

Is it right for me?

Lip enhancement suits people who want their lips to look like theirs on a good day — not a trend shape. It is not suitable during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or if you have an active cold sore (treatment must wait until it has fully healed). The consultation covers shape goals honestly: if the look you're asking for won't suit your face, we'll say so.
