Frequently Asked Questions
WHAT IS A LIP FILLER OR LIP ENHANCEMENT TREATMENT?
Lips are more delicate than the skin on other areas of the face. The soft tissue of the lips is constantly moving and subject to dryness quickly. The lip fillers are injectable products made of a material that replicates a naturally occurring substance in our skin. Injecting them gives back hydration to your skin and lips, reversing the effects of ageing or adding instant volume.
Due to TGA restriction, we are not allowed to publish the different types of lip fillers that we use.
