Patient guide to lip filler treatment
Type of treatment:
Lip filler treatment
Non-surgical lip augmentation work is my speciality. I've trained both in the UK & also abroad in Norway, with the very lovely world lip augmentation specialist- Julie Horne.
Lip fillers are still the most popular cosmetic dermal filler treatments worldwide. So, I tend to receive more questions about lip work than any other type of treatment I carry out.
There are a lot of common questions I receive. So, based on my experience, I wrote a patient guide to answer the most common questions I regularly receive. The guide is split in to three sections- the questions I receive about pre-treatment, in-treatment & post-treatment.

Thanks so much for my treatment Viv (lip augmentation).
I’m so happy with the results after being conscious of my top lip for a long time. Viv put me at ease from the get go and was very informative & ran me through the whole process thoroughly.
He is very professional, not rushing any of the process & always checking if I am ok or if I have any questions.
I would recommend to anyone.

Lip augmentation, skin booster
This is the third time Viv has done my lips and a sunekos treatment and I am delighted with the results as usual.
His clinic is immaculate, relaxing and Viv is so welcoming, friendly and very professional. His attention to detail is second to none and you feel you're in safe hands from the start with every step of the procedure explained.
Sunekos treatment has refreshed and plumped up my skin and is a fantastic alternative to fillers and as usual the lip treatment is totally tailored to what each individual wants to achieve.
Highly recommend Viv.

First time getting lip filler and I was really nervous about it at first but Viv was really thorough and took the time to explain everything. Thought it might hurt as well but needn’t have worried as Viv took the time to numb the lips completely and hardly felt a thing. Viv took the time to listen to exactly what I wanted as I wanted really natural looking lips and to just enhance what I already have. So happy with the results and would recommend him 100%. Thank you

It was my first time having any fillers treatments, from my very first experience i definitely 100% recommended going to skinpharma Aesthetics. Vivek made me feel comfortable and friendly. Lovley relaxing room and music was so relaxing that i could just fell asleep 😊 definitely be going to Vivek again for my treatments, i wouldn't go to anyone else. But skinpharma Aesthetics.

If you are looking for fuller natural looking lips don’t look any further! Viv explained the whole procedure and made me feel at ease regarding the process so much so I could have fallen asleep during treatment! Definitely will be back and couldn’t thank him enough! Thank you for my new lips 💋

Lip augmentation
On Saturday I had my first ever lip augmentation treatment with Viv. Prior to this we had a consultation and Viv thoroughly explained everything to me. Before my actual appointment I was very apprehensive and nervous - I knew what to expect but it didn’t really quell those fears.
Once I arrived at the clinic I was greeted by Viv, in full PPE, and I quickly relaxed as the clinic is just so peaceful and serene. One of the best things about the appointment was Viv’s practise - the way he talked me through everything without rushing, the way he starts the treatment and stopped to show me what exactly he was doing and why - it’s a fine art for him, down to a tee.
Afterwards I was a little shocked at how swollen my lips had become so quickly but Viv reassured me how normal it was and just how much they would end up reducing by.
All in all every review I’d already read if Viv was spot on, he’s knowledgeable, experienced and really calming. And for once all the reviews I read were true and everything he told me about aftercare has ring true, too. For my first time lip experience this was really the perfect setting.

I have been getting lip filler with Viv for a couple of years now and I can honestly say I would never go anywhere else.
He is so professional and always takes the time to explain what he will be doing. He makes sure to check throughout the treatment that you are happy with how it’s going and always makes me feel at ease.
Always a 5 star review from me!

I hadn’t seen Viv in a while, in that time he’d changed premises, but his level of care and attention has not changed. After not seeing me for a while, he was as welcoming as ever, it was like having a catch-up with a friend.
The new (to me) premise is so fresh looking, and clinical but not cold, it’s comfortable and well thought out.
I’d gone to get a round of lip filler, essentially starting over again with the break I’d taken and now that my lips are settled I couldn’t be happier. Viv is so thorough and precise in what he does, and now that he uses ultrasound technology for lip structure mapping I wouldn’t feel comfortable enough going to anyone else. Nobody will have your best interest at heart like Viv does. It’s so rare to see the level of care and consideration that you get with Viv, and each time I see him is a whole experience. Every injection explained, thought out, exactly where it should be. I appreciate the communication and explanations as to why he’ll inject in those specific ways or places to achieve the best and safest look, without it verging on excessive. I’m always made to feel so comfortable, both with the treatment and expected outcome as well as physically comfortable with rounds of numbing cream and breaks to show and explain the process, so I know exactly what is happening and what that looks like and based on that, I can make a decision on what I’d like doing next. It’s because of Viv’s level of training, care and attention in his work and bettering himself with further training that he has me as a customer for as long as I want aesthetic treatments, and with my results looking as natural and beautiful as they do, I think that’ll be for a long time to come.

First time getting lip fillers. I was concerned how much it was going to hurt but Viv numbed my lips using numbing cream and ice and I barely felt a thing. Less painful than botox I had had at other companies.
I am super happy with the shape of my new lips. They are so natural. Viv took a lot of time checking I was very happy with the shape and adding more where I thought necessary. I will def be returning

Visited Viv today finally after plucking up the courage to get a lip treatment. I was really nervous about the pain of this treatment but viv made me feel at ease and did everything in slow stages. The pain was bearable, no where near what I thought and now I have beautiful lips. I wouldn't go anywhere else now. Professional, caring and the best work. thanks again.
