Lip Fillers
Plumping pouts with fillers is now one of The Avoca Clinic’s most popular non-surgical procedures. Time and genetics can leave lips looking lacklustre and thin, which can put a large dent in self-esteem. But fillers can help. Whether you want a super natural look or to go all out like Kylie Jenner, our expert team can help create your dream lips.
What to expect
Lip fillers are the ideal way to restore or add plumpness to the lips. Minimally invasive and semi permanent, filler is carefully injected into the lips that have lost their shape, volume or elasticity.
The filler itself is a hyaluronic acid molecule, which is a naturally occurring compound in the body that attracts water and can hold up to 1,000 times its own weight. Injected, this results in a plumper, fuller lip effect.

Your Questions Answered
Lip fillers, sometimes referred to as cosmetic lip enhancement, are an effective way to give your lips more volume, a prettier pout or better definition. The most commonly used technique is an injectable derma-filler, which increases the volume of your lips. It’s a relatively straightforward procedure, requiring no surgery.
The dermal filler is designed to enhance lip volume and redefine lip shape. Is suitable forwomen who wish to increase the size of their lips or who naturally have thin lips.Key factors which affect the way your skin ages and lines and wrinkles develop include:
- Exposure to the sun
- Smoking
- Alcohol
Results vary according to treatment and clinic. At Avoca, patients can expect the results to last for 6-9 months.
No – at most, you will feel a light pinch. The procedure begins with a numbing of the lips – and this is done with a cream, not a needle. The actual filling/injection process doesn’t begin until the patient has been numbed; and all of our medical staff are highly trained and experienced in this specialised field.
Like receiving dermal fillers, it is a relatively unobtrusive procedure.
This depends on what you’re looking for. We have chosen our lip fillers based on years of experience and on-the-job research. And we offer a full range of fillers including Juvederm, Restylane and more.
Recovery time is very fast: Most patients can return to daily routine immediately after the procedure. There is some tenderness for 24 hours afterwards, and there might be some mild bruising
- Firstly, arrange a consultation with our specialist medical aesthetic Doctor.
- Consultations are free but scheduled.
- Discuss and agree on the areas you would like to be treated.
- Our medical aesthetic doctor will recommend the appropriate choice of treatment to achieve the look you want.
Our specialist doctor will cover the lips with a numbing cream. This cream will numb the lips sufficiently so that the treatment can be completed comfortably. The doctor will then inject the treatment precisely where it’s needed.
Depending on the area being treated and the volume of product being used, this process should take approximately 30 minutes.
No – the nerve endings on your lips won’t be affected. This means that after you’ve recovered, your lips will function the same way – even when you kiss!
Any cosmetic procedure carries inherent risks, but at Avoca, we only use the highest end equipment and products; our doctors are highly experienced, and we pride ourselves on our customer care. This includes an open-door policy for all patients – giving them access to our clinic 365 days a year.
