What it treats
Fillers add volume where the face has lost it, or shape where you would like more definition. The body breaks the gel down gradually over time.
Smile lines
Lines from the nose to the corners of the mouth, and marionette lines.
Cheeks
Volume lost with age, and a gentle lift to the mid-face.
Under-eyes
Hollows under the eyes that make the face look tired.
Temples
Hollow temples, which can narrow the upper face.
Lips
Shape, definition and volume, kept in proportion. See lip filler.
Chin and jawline
Contour and profile, for a clearer line along the jaw.
For fine lines and hydration without added volume, see skin boosters.
Lip filler
Lip filler is a soft hyaluronic acid gel made for the lips. How much to use, and where, is planned with you at the consultation, so the lips stay in proportion with the rest of the face.
Volume
For thin lips, or lips that have lost fullness with age.
Definition
A clearer lip border and Cupid's bow.
Balance
The upper and lower lip in proportion, and the two sides more even.
Lips swell more than other areas, most in the first few days.

Questions
Filler or anti-wrinkle injections?
Anti-wrinkle injections relax the muscles that crease the skin; fillers add volume under a line or a hollow. The two are often combined.
Does it hurt?
Most people feel a little pressure or stinging. A numbing cream is used first, and many fillers also contain a local anaesthetic.
How long does lip filler last?
Usually less long than filler elsewhere in the face, often around 6 to 12 months, because the lips move so much.
Who should not have fillers?
No fillers during pregnancy or breastfeeding, over an infection or cold sore in the area, or with an allergy to the product. Tell us about blood-thinning medication.
