Aftercare: what is not allowed after a lip filler treatment?
After your lips have been filled, proper aftercare is very important. Good aftercare ensures faster recovery and an optimal result. We recommend cooling well after the treatment and, if necessary, using anti-bruising cream. In addition, it is important not to put pressure on the treated area for the first few days after the treatment and to take enough rest.
In the first 48 hours after the treatment, it is advised not to exercise. We also recommend not wearing makeup during the first 24 hours after the treatment, and not going to a sauna or tanning bed for two weeks. Furthermore, daily activities can be continued as long as the above advice is taken into account. More aftercare advice.

Lip fillers experiences
Het was mijn eerste keer lip fillers en ik was best zenuwachtig. Gelukkig stelde dokter Carolien me direct op m’n gemak. Ze gebruikte een kleine hoeveelheid filler, vooral in het midden van de bovenlip. Mijn lippen zijn nu net iets voller, maar nog steeds heel natuurlijk. Ik raad de body clinic echt aan!
Ik ben goed geholpen door behandelaar: Hans Jansen.
Tussendoor kreeg ik de spiegel in mijn handen om te bepalen of ik er nog meer in wilde.
Uiteindelijk ben ik gegaan voor 1ml
Ik kom hier zeker nog vaker terug voor een (vervolg) behandeling Show less »
Viel heel erg mee goed geholpen ze stelde me gerust.
Ik blijf zeker terug komen en een mooi resultaat ze was ook eerlijk dat ik beter iets meer ml in kon laten spuiten dat het resultaat mooier wordt en inderdaad super mooi en tevreden.
My skin color is normal, and everything is perfect! Thanks!
Ik werd behandeld door Drs. Hosseini, en ik kan niet genoeg benadrukken hoe professioneel en kundig hij is. Hij neemt de tijd om goed naar je wensen te luisteren en stelt je op je gemak met zijn vriendelijke en rustige benadering. Omdat hij ook huisarts is, voel je meteen dat je in veilige handen bent.
Het resultaat is prachtig , precies zoals ik het wilde.
Ik ga nooit meer ergens anders heen.
Absoluut een aanrader! Show less »

Complication | Incidence per 1,000 treatments |
|---|---|
Swelling (mild) | 200–300 |
Bruising | 150–250 |
Infections | 1–3 |
Vascular complications | 0.05–0.10 |
Treatment techniques and function
There are various injection techniques to perfect the lip contour and correct asymmetry. With the classic needle method (bolus injection), the doctor injects small amounts of hyaluronic acid exactly at the desired locations. The microcannula technique uses a flexible tube, which leads to fewer bruises and faster recovery. Advanced methods such as MD Codes® focus on strategic placement of the filler for a long-lasting and natural result. Which technique is best depends on your wishes and the expertise of the practitioner.

Frequently asked questions about a lip filler treatment
Which lip filler treatments are there?
There are several techniques for filling lips with fillers. The most well-known techniques are:
Russian Method technique
The Russian method technique is the most famous treatment technique. This treatment is characterized by the vertical increase of lip volume. The lips are therefore not filled forward. The method is also called the Russian Flat Lips Method.
Keyhole lip filler
Also known as the "keyhole" method. This way of filling the lips results, in a relaxed position, in a small opening in the middle between the upper and lower lip. This treatment is not performed by every doctor and is not suitable for everyone. Ask your doctor about the possibilities.
Cupid’s Bow lip filler
With the Cupid’s bow technique, the middle of the upper lip border is enhanced. This gives more definition in the center of your lips.
How long does filler last in the lips?
Lip fillers are often effective for 6 to 12 months. The duration depends, among other things, on the brand of filler used. Some brands are known as natural, soft, and dynamic fillers. This applies, for example, to Aliaxin LV, Restylane Kysse, Juvéderm Volift, Teosyal Kiss, and Belotero Lips. Other brands are known as slightly firmer and stiffer; these fillers sometimes provide longer results, but not always. The cosmetic doctor will determine together with you which brand is most suitable for you and your preferences.
How much do lip fillers cost?
The cost of lip fillers depends on the clinic, the practitioner, and the brand used. The cheapest lip treatment in the United Kingdom costs €135. Most prices range between €135 and €262, based on an amount of 0.5 ml.
How long can swelling after lip fillers last?
The duration of swelling after a lip filler treatment can vary, but generally it takes a few days to a week for the swelling to fully subside. In some cases, the swelling may last a little longer, depending on factors such as the individual reaction to the treatment and the technique used. Most swelling will likely disappear within a few days.
What is not allowed after a lip filler treatment?
After a lip filler treatment, there are some activities and habits you should avoid to maintain the best result and prevent complications. For example, it is recommended not to drink alcohol for 24 hours before and up to 48 hours after the treatment, but to continue drinking enough water.
