What Happens During a Lip Filler Treatment? Step-by-Step Guide

Hello, I’m Dr. Laura Geige, and I’d like to welcome you to It’s Me & You Clinic, where we offer personalised aesthetic treatments designed to enhance your natural beauty in a safe and professional environment. Lip fillers are one of the most popular treatments we provide, and understandably so—they offer a simple, minimally invasive way to add volume, definition, and balance to your lips. Today, I’ll walk you through the entire lip filler process, from consultation to aftercare, so you know exactly what to expect. If you’re considering lip enhancement, feel free to book a consultation with me here.

Step 1: Consultation and Personalised Assessment

Every successful treatment starts with a thorough consultation. At It’s Me & You Clinic, I begin by sitting down with you to discuss your goals and concerns. We’ll talk about what you’re hoping to achieve—whether you want a subtle enhancement or more noticeable volume. Together, we’ll also review your medical history to ensure the procedure is right for you. This is a time for you to ask any questions, and I’m here to provide honest, straightforward answers.

During this consultation, I carefully assess your facial anatomy, paying close attention to the shape, symmetry, and proportions of your lips. Everyone’s face is unique, so it’s important to develop a bespoke treatment plan that complements your natural features. By the end of this conversation, you’ll have a clear understanding of the process and the expected results. If you’re ready to explore your options, book your consultation now.

Step 2: Preparation and Numbing for Your Comfort

Before we begin the treatment, we ensure your comfort by applying a topical numbing cream to the lips. This cream helps minimise any discomfort during the procedure and takes around 15–20 minutes to take full effect. At It’s Me & You Clinic, your comfort is a top priority, and we take every precaution to ensure a relaxing experience.

While the numbing cream works its magic, we’ll review the treatment plan one final time, ensuring you’re happy with the agreed-upon approach. I’ll also provide a brief overview of what you can expect during the injection process. Ready to experience our personalised care? Schedule your appointment today.

Step 3: The Injection Process – Precision and Care

Once you’re comfortably numb, we’ll move on to the injection process. I use a fine needle or cannula to inject the filler into specific areas of the lips, depending on the desired outcome. Whether we’re adding volume, defining the lip border, or creating a more balanced shape, the technique is always tailored to your individual needs.

Each injection is performed with precision and care, and I regularly check to ensure symmetry and balance throughout the procedure. The entire injection process typically takes around 15–20 minutes, but I’ll take as much time as needed to achieve the best results. Want to enhance your natural beauty?

Step 4: Gentle Massage and Immediate Results

After the injections are complete, I’ll gently massage the treated area to ensure even distribution of the filler. This helps to create a smooth, natural look and feel. We’ll then take a moment to review the results together. If necessary, adjustments can be made to ensure you’re completely satisfied.

It’s normal to see an immediate difference in the appearance of your lips, though they may appear slightly swollen at first. The swelling usually subsides within a few days, revealing the final results. Interested in achieving beautiful, natural-looking lips? Book your appointment today.

Step 5: Aftercare and What to Expect

After the treatment, I’ll provide you with detailed aftercare instructions. It’s important to avoid strenuous exercise, extreme heat, or applying pressure to the lips for at least 24–48 hours. You may experience some mild swelling or bruising, which is perfectly normal and typically resolves within a few days.

I’m always available to answer any questions during your recovery, and we’ll schedule a follow-up appointment if needed. At It’s Me & You Clinic, we’re committed to providing ongoing support to ensure you’re happy with your results. Ready to get started? Schedule your consultation.
