COSMETIC TREATMENTS AT LÚUM  

Lip enhancement

The shape, volume, and finer details of the peri-oral region can play a crucial role in a woman's femininity and sensuality. Men can also seek subtle enhancements to their lips through the use of fillers, with the aim of improving their shape and proportions. The technique, product choice, and volume of filler required will differ depending on factors such as age, gender, ethnicity, and facial features. 

During your consultation at Lúum, we will customise a filler treatment specifically for you, taking into account your overall features, profile, and surrounding facial characteristics. 

  • As every face is individual a 1:1 consultation is required to ensure you are a suitable candidate. A personalised quote will be given during consultation should you wish to proceed treatment can be carried out during this appointment. 

FAQs

Our clinicians use fine needles to administer dermal filler to the lips comfortable and safely – all whilst respecting your natural anatomy.

  • Yes, results are instant with dermal filler. However, you may experience some mild to moderate swelling in the area immediately post treatment. The main swelling is generally present for 48-72 hours, however dermal fillers can take 2-4 weeks to completely settle in to the tissues.

  • Lip Fillers generally last 6-12 months. This depends on many lifestyle factors such as metabolism, stress factors, exercise and individual anatomy.
