Lip fillers are a type of dermal filler – a non-surgical procedure which uses an injectable substance, typically made of hyaluronic acid, to add volume, shape, and fullness to the lips for aesthetic enhancement. Lip filler injections can restore lost volume, treat signs of aging, and give the lips a fuller, plumper, and smoother appearance.
Please Note: Lip filler treatments will be performed up until 2 week prior to international air travel and 48 hours prior to interstate air travel. These measures are to promote patient safety post dermal filler treatment.
Hydrating lip filler procedures performed in our Brisbane injectables clinic offer an effective way to enhance the lips and address common concerns such as lack of volume or asymmetric lips – they can also be used to define the edges of the lips and sharpen the cupid’s bow.
Our experienced Registered Nurses conduct a thorough pre treatment consultation to understand your medical history and asses your facial anatomy to ensure your treatment achieves your desired results. You’ll have the option of proceeding with the lip filer treatment on the same day if you wish or you can schedule it for a later date.

Lip enhancement in our Brisbane clinic is carefully tailored to each patient for natural-looking results with consideration given to your facial anatomy and any existing asymmetries.
After applying either a topical numbing cream, or local anaesthetic (based on your preference) – our experienced Registered Nurses will then skilfully inject the dermal filler using a fine needle or cannula into strategic locations to achieve your desired appearance.
Most of our clients report minimal pain during the procedure, however if you have sensitive lips, we will ensure that you’re given adequate pain prevention.
You shouldn’t need to schedule any downtime after undergoing a lip filler treatment – however you may experience a numb sensation around your mouth from the anaesthetic – so please avoid hot drinks and eating until this wears off.
Some clients report mild discomfort, however this typically last no longer than a few hours.
You may experience palpable lumps at the injection site. Please do not massage these (unless instructed by your healthcare professional), as any lumpiness will subside as the product stabilizes within your tissues.
To ensure the best results from your lip filler treatment you’ll need to avoid a few activities as follows:
Please do not massage the treated area unless instructed, as the dermal filler remains malleable for up to two weeks after treatment.
One of the most common questions we get from our local Brisbane clients is ‘how long will 1ml of lip filler last?’.
Unfortunately it’s not possible to give a 100% accurate prediction of how long your lip filler results will last before requiring a top up as the timeframe can vary depending on each individuals metabolism and history of previous treatments. As a general guide you can expect your lips to retain their fuller appearance for around 6-15 months.
You don’t need to continue to undergo lip filler treatments after this period if you choose not to and your lips will gradually return to their previous appearance as the filler is metabolised by your body.
However, if you want to maintain your lip volume, you’ll need to book in with us again for a top up.
Before undergoing lip filler treatment we want you to be completely informed so our cosmetic injector will thoroughly explain the potential risks and complications of the procedure. Common side effects can include redness, itching, swelling, bruising or tenderness around the lips which all typically subside within a few days.
If you experience any inflammatory or other reactions that last more than 1 week, you should notify your doctor or nurse immediately. If necessary, appropriate treatment may be prescribed. We are here to support you

Lip fillers can last approximately 6-12 months. It is important to be aware that your metabolism can impact the longevity of product. The extent of volume loss in the lip and the history of previous treatments can influence how long a dermal filler product will last.
The $ price can vary depending on the product used. The types of dermal fillers available for lip filler treatments are discussed during your complimentary consultation along with the $ pricing of each filler.
The lip can be a sensitive area. Our experience team of Nurse Practitioners and Registered Nurses provide you with numbing options during your compliment consultation that will be available to you to assist with reducing pain during treatment.
Lip fillers are made up of a natural occurring sugar that work to attract and absorb water. This mechanism helps to provide volume and hydrating effects for your lip tissues.
Lip fillers are aimed to integrate into your tissues. This integration promotes a soft and natural feel. At times lumps can be felt post treatment and we may advise that you massage these areas or present to clinic for review. Lip filler that has developed significantly hard lumps requires a review, although this is uncommon. Lips that have had multiple treatments of dermal fillers over time may develop lumps as a result over filling. It may be suggested during your complimentary consultation that dissolving and starting again is recommended.
Dermal filler treatments during pregnancy are not advisable due to the limited research that is available providing safety and efficacy of treatment. It is important to note that whilst some people may feel dermal fillers are safe it is the use of antibiotics, dissolving agents and other medications that may be necessary should a complication occur that may be deemed unsafe. It is necessary to have significant research that proves all aspects of the treatment safe and not just having dermal fillers in isolation.
If you are on antibiotics you will need to reschedule your Lip Filler treatment to 2 to 4 weeks post ceasing the course. If you have been unwell or are on antibiotics you must bring this to the attention of your clinician so an appropriate appointment can be rescheduled for you. You must at all times be 100% well during treatment. Research demonstrates that people who undergo dermal filler treatments whilst unwell or within a period close to this, are at an increased of infection, granulomas or inflammatory responses.
Lip balm can be used post treatment if it is new and unopened. Remember it is important to avoid the risk of microscopic bacteria and therefore new and unused are recommended. We will apply a balm post treatment prior to you leaving clinic.
This is a good question. To say it does ‘fully dissolve’ is a difficult statement to make. Dermal filler will be metabolised and broken down by the human body. This varies depending on each individual person, their ability to do this and their medical history. Dermal filler and how it is completely metabolised over the years is still undergoing research. There are approx. longevity timelines suggested for each dermal filler. In our clinical experience we have seen circumstances where it appears the dermal filler has completely gone from a visual observation and cases where the dermal filler is still holding results despite suggestions it should have completely metabolised as per longevity timeframe. This question can be further explained during your complimentary consultation.
Swelling can last for approx. 3 to 4 days. It is important to always plan for swelling as we are unable to predict how you will swell post treatment. Some people will have minimal swelling and others can swell quite noticeably. In rare cases swelling can present longer than 4 days.
We recommend no drinking alcohol for at least 24hrs post treatment. Remember alcohol can increase the risk of bruising as it can thin the blood. It is important to consider your alcohol consumption prior to treatment will put you at an increased risk of bruising.
You do not need to get lip fillers done again if you do not want to. The filler will over time metabolise. If you want to maintain volume and prevent volume loss then ongoing dermal filler treatments will be required to maintain desired results. Remember that multiple treatments may be required to reach your desired result endpoint.
