Lip Enhancement.

What is Lip Enhancement ?

Lip fillers are cosmetic injections designed to enhance natural beauty, augment the lips for a more dramatic effect, sharpen the border of the lips (vermillion border), correct asymmetry of the lips and restore balance to lip proportions.

Filler can also be used to create/enhance lip pouts and volume.

How it Works.

These fillers contain hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in the body that helps to retain moisture and add volume.

Results can last from several months to a year, depending on the type of filler used and individual factors.

Is it Painful?

Lip filler can be a little uncomfortable as the lips are a very sensitive area. Shanella can use numbing cream or her dental anaesthesia skills to make this pain-free.

What are the side effects/risks ?

As with any procedure where a needle is used, there is a risk of bleeding, bruising, pain, and swelling with lip filler treatments. If any of these develop, it is usually short-lived, and it does vary person to person. Some people can develop swelling/oedema (fluid retention) which can last for several weeks, or may even need the filler dissolving.

Small deposits of filler can occasionally be felt, which can usually be easily corrected. Allergic reaction, infection and granulomas (inflammatory lumps) are rare possible complications.

Even rarer complications include injection of filler into, or compression of, a blood vessel. This can cause vascular compromise/occlusion.

Shanella takes steps to prevent these and is well equipped to deal with any complications. Results last: 6 — 12 months (non-permanent)

Recovery Time .

The typical recovery time for lip fillers is usually about 24 to 48 hours for the initial swelling and bruising to subside. However, it can take up to two weeks for the full results to settle in and for any minor swelling or bruising to completely disappear.

It’s essential to follow post-treatment care instructions provided to ensure the best outcome.
