Lip filler treatment with an NMC-registered nurse at Perfectus Derma, Soho

The short answer

What this treatment is

Great lip filler is quiet. Our nurses work with Stylage Special Lips and Stylage Lips Plus, soft hyaluronic acid gels made for the lips, to define your border, refine shape and restore volume that time has thinned. The starting point is your own lip: its proportions, how it moves when you speak and smile, and how it sits against your chin and profile. Treatment takes around 60 minutes including numbing cream, costs £300 for 1ml, and builds gradually where a subtle first step serves you better. The results our patients love are subtle, soft and beautifully balanced. If it is your first visit, everything begins with a face-to-face consultation.

Patient journey

What to expect

Consultation & preparation

Avoid alcohol for 24 hours before your appointment and, where medically appropriate, pause blood-thinning supplements such as fish oil to reduce bruising. Tell your nurse at consultation if you get cold sores, as lip treatment can trigger a flare and this may affect timing. Keep dental work at least 2 weeks away from your appointment where possible.

During treatment

How does lip filler work?

Lip fillers are soft hyaluronic acid gels injected in small, precise amounts to define the lip border, balance the top and bottom lip and restore volume that has thinned over time. Hyaluronic acid occurs naturally in your skin, so the gel integrates and moves with you. We use Stylage Special Lips and Stylage Lips Plus, CE-marked products designed specifically for lips. Numbing cream goes on first, the appointment takes around 60 minutes, and swelling settles over the first 24 to 48 hours.

What makes a lip result look natural?

Proportion, not size. A natural result keeps the gentle ratio between your top and bottom lip, follows your existing border rather than inflating past it, and moves normally when you talk, eat and smile. That is why we start conservatively: 1ml or less at a first appointment, reviewed once swelling has settled. Lips that have thinned with age often need definition more than volume. Chasing a trend shape from a screen is the one brief we will always talk you out of.

What is profile balancing?

Lips sit in a face, not on their own. Viewed from the side, the balance between your nose, lips and chin decides how harmonious a result looks, and sometimes a modest chin adjustment flatters the lips more than another millilitre ever could. Our nurses assess your profile at consultation and, where it helps, plan lip filler alongside chin support using Stylage dermal filler. The combination is designed as one picture and priced at consultation.

Is a lip flip a better option for me?

Sometimes. A lip flip is not a filler: it is an anti-wrinkle treatment that relaxes the small muscle around the upper lip, letting the lip roll gently outwards to show a little more of itself without any added volume. It suits patients whose upper lip tucks in when they smile, and it can also soften a gummy smile. You will find it, with pricing, on our Anti-Wrinkle Injections page; at consultation we will honestly advise which route fits your lips.

Where can I get lip filler near me in central London?

We treat lips at 111 Charing Cross Road in Soho, inside UNTIL, a short walk of about 5 minutes from Tottenham Court Road and Leicester Square stations. Appointments run Monday to Friday 8am to 7pm and Saturday 9am to 5pm. Every new patient begins with a face-to-face consultation, and some treatments are not carried out on the same day as that first visit.

Aftercare

Swelling is part of lip filler and usually peaks the morning after treatment before settling over 24 to 48 hours. Avoid makeup on the lips, strenuous exercise, alcohol and very hot drinks for 24 hours, and try not to press or massage your lips. Judge your final shape at 2 weeks, once everything has settled.

FAQ

Common
questions

How much does lip filler cost?

Lip augmentation with 1ml of Stylage Special Lips or Lips Plus is £300, including numbing cream, your treatment session of around 60 minutes and aftercare guidance. If a smaller, more gradual approach suits your lips, your nurse will discuss options and costs openly at your face-to-face consultation before anything is booked.

How long does lip filler last?

Most lip filler lasts 6 to 12 months. The lips move constantly, so they break hyaluronic acid down faster than stiller areas such as the chin, which is why filler elsewhere can last up to 18 months. Regular reviews keep your result topped up gradually. Duration varies from individual to individual.

Does lip filler hurt?

The lips are sensitive, so we take comfort seriously. Numbing cream is applied and given time to work before any injection, and for certain treatments a regional nerve block can be added at additional cost. Most patients describe pressure and brief stings rather than real pain, and the appointment is never rushed.

Will my lips look obviously done?

Not with us. We follow your natural border, keep your lip ratio intact and add volume in conservative steps, reviewing once swelling has settled before considering more. Swelling in the first 48 hours is normal and temporary, so judge nothing until it passes. If you ever want less, filler can be dissolved.

Can lip filler be dissolved?

Yes. Because we use hyaluronic acid fillers, a prescriber can dissolve them with hyaluronidase if you change your mind or if previous work needs correcting before we start again. Elective filler dissolving is £300 and is often done before re-treatment, so new filler starts from the best possible foundation.
