Lip Filler

Say hello to lovely lips

Lip fillers are one of the most requested aesthetic treatments in the UK. With the Instagram age in full swing, we find that people (not just the ladies) are increasingly looking to enhance their lips and gain that sultry selfie. Here at VIVA Skin Clinics our focus is on balance, proportions and natural results. The same can be said for lips. Whilst we appreciate a luscious pout, we believe lips can be full and plump without looking obviously ‘done’.

Filling the lips is an art. At VIVA Skin Clinics, we use hyaluronic acid dermal fillers to gently and naturally add volume to the lips, and surrounding area creating a natural fullness and enhanced shape and structure.

Using lip fillers following a full facial assessment, we can not only increase volume, but restore balance and proportion to the face, even out any lip asymmetry and help smooth smokers lines leaving the lips looking fresh and youthful.

Common questions

Does it hurt?

Lip fillers typically contain local anaesthetic to help minimise any discomfort. We also apply a numbing cream prior to injections, so that you can be sure your treatment will be comfortable.
Are there any side effects?

Some swelling and bruising may occur post treatment. This will usually subside within 48 hours, and any bruising can easily be covered with makeup. Should you experience any other side effects (rarely numbness or lumping) please contact the clinic.
What result can I expect?

Once swelling has subsided, the effects of your treatment will continue to develop. You will notice that your lips appear balanced, fuller and more hydrated. You are sure to be delighted with your plump refresh lips.
Is it safe?

At VIVA Skin Clinics, lip fillers are only administered by highly trained professionals. The lips contain many nerve endings and blood vessels and should never be treated by anyone who is not a highly trained medical professional. We use only the highest quality dermal fillers with an excellent safety profile.
Which product is used?

For Lip Fillers, we use JUVÉDERM VOLIFT or VOLBELLA.

Client reviews

Everything about my experience was wonderful. I suffer from anxiety, so I was extremely anxious beforehand, but Dr Critchley immediately put me at ease with his calming, friendly, and fun demeanour. I noticed a few reviewers saying that they had to wait a while to be seen, but this wasn't the case with me. I had a 3-5 minute wait at most. The procedure itself is very brief and I have absolutely no bruising. Before having treatment it's important to have a realistic expectation of what can be achieved. Dr Critchley was honest with me and said that my under eye circles really weren't that bad, but that we all have some sort of creasing under our eyes, meaning that no amount of filler can completely obliterate ALL traces of under eye circles. However, the fillers have done wonders for my self-esteem, as the improvement to the appearance of my eyes is substantial. Now I can happily go outside without 5 layers of concealer! I definitely wouldn't go anywhere else for my fillers. Thank you Dr Critchley!

Within 5 minutes of meeting Dr. Rupert, I knew he had the answers to what I’ve been searching for! This was my first time ever getting any cosmetic work done, so I was a little nervous, but Dr. Rupert was very reassuring. He was informative in every step throughout the process, from educating me beforehand to what exactly was happening during each injection.I really appreciate his attention to detail to ensure the most natural enhancements. Overall, I had the absolute best experience and am beyond thrilled with my results!

I am not sure about the treatment itself although Dr. Rupert as a person is nice and professional. Had to top up the Botox as did not work and still not good work after the second top up, plus I am having new wrinkles now after the dermal fillers around the mouth. Left side of the face looks different to the right side after dermal fillers. Overall, not impressed. I subsequently heard dermal fillers don't really work to get rid of marionette lines( this is my primary concern) and I can see why now. I also wish all face treatment salons/clinics start using proper day light angle rather than showing me my "before and after" photos taken in a place with no natural light.

Love love love Dr Rupert and what he does, I recommend him to all my friends. People have commented how surprised they are I’ve had Botox/fillers as it looks so natural. He makes you feel so comfortable and at ease and I trust him 100% with my face. I won’t go to anyone else.

I had been considering tear trough fillers for a while because I was very unhappy with the darkness of my under eyes. After doing some research I found the VIVA Skin Clinic and decided to book a consultation. As a newbie to cosmetic enhancements world, I was scared of what to expect and how it would all go but once I met Dr. Rupert Critchley I really felt put at ease and comfortable so I decided to go ahead not only with the tear through filler procedure but also with botox for my gummy smile. Neither of the treatments were painful, just a little unconfortable. All I can say is that Dr. Critchley is amazing and the results for both procedures made me very happy, my confidence has been boosted, I haven't felt this good about myself in a long time. Highly recommended :-)
