The procedure
The treatment focuses on the lip area and is tailored to your needs. Comfort options may be offered beforehand to help reduce discomfort. The process time can vary depending on the extent of the treatment. Temporary effects such as swelling or bruising may occur and resolve over time.
Reasons for lip volume treatment
Lip volume treatment may be considered by patients who notice a decrease in lip volume over time. It may also be used to address asymmetry or differences in lip shape. This is a non-surgical approach that can be tailored to each patient’s needs.

Recovery period
After the procedure, you may notice temporary effects such as pain, swelling, bruising, or tenderness in the treated area. These effects usually resolve over time. Simple measures like using an ice pack or over-the-counter pain relief may help with discomfort.
You may be advised to avoid strenuous activities, excessive heat, or touching the treated area for the first 24 to 48 hours. Keeping the lips moisturised and following aftercare instructions can also support recovery.
The length of recovery varies between patients and depends on factors such as overall health, age, lifestyle, and skin condition. Adhering to aftercare guidance, including limiting strenuous activity and sun exposure, can influence how long recovery takes.
