Lip Enhancement with Lip Fillers

After every procedure, we will give you very comprehensive aftercare advice. However, if anything is not clear or you forget anything, here are a few reminders:

• Immediately after the treatment, there may be redness, bruising, swelling, tenderness, and/or itching near the injection site. This is normal and generally disappears within a few hours to several days.
• Avoid touching the area for at least 12 hours and avoid applying make-up to the area for 12 hours.
• 100% mineral make-up (such as the Youngblood brand, available in clinic) can be applied immediately after the procedure.
• Avoid alcohol consumption for 12 hours.
• Avoid vigorous aerobic exercise for 24 hours.
• A clean cool pack can be applied directly to the treated area to reduce any swelling. If you experience any discomfort you may also take any painkiller that you normally take, but please note ibuprofen, aspirin or other anti-coagulant medications may increase or prolong the bruising.
• If you get any bruising you may apply arnica cream.
• If you are prone to cold sores (herpes) around the mouth, and this area has been treated, you may experience a breakout. If this occurs, you may want to apply acyclovir cream for a few days following treatment. • Avoid extreme sun exposure, UV light, freezing temperatures, steam rooms and saunas for 2 weeks.
• When the lips are injected the initial swelling and tenderness may last a little longer, sometimes taking up to a week to settle and the lips may look and feel slightly uneven during this time.
• The results of lip fillers are not permanent. Repeated treatments may be necessary to achieve your desired outcome. Individual treatment plans can be discussed with your Medical Practitioner.

Our expert Aesthetic Nurse Prescribers can achieve a wide array of looks. As a clinic we particularly specialise in subtle tweakments that create natural, youthful results.

At your free consultation you can discuss your hopes and goals. We'll only proceed to treatment once we're confident that we can get the results you're looking for.

Absolutely. We want to enhance your natural beauty. It takes a deep knowledge of facial anatomy to know how to create the results that you want.

Our nurses are medical professionals working in a regulated medical clinic. They take their duty of care very seriously.

We never 'over treat' or 'over fill'. In fact, we will decline to offer treatment if we have concerns.

Disappointingly, this type of treatment is still unregulated in the UK. Unqualified practitioners are common, as are unregulated clinics and travelling injectors.

At Good Skin Days we hold ourselves to a much higher standard.

Injectable treatments are only carried out by a medically-qualified Nurse Prescriber with specialist aesthetics training and deep knowledge of facial anatomy.
