Dermal filler treatments can be used to replace volume and restore contour and shape lost from the face as part of the ageing process. When injected correctly, fillers can help lift and soften the signs of ageing on the face.
Lip filler injections are popular with both women and men of different ages. However, getting natural and age-appropriate results requires both advanced injection techniques and the correct choice of filler. This is particularly true when it comes to lip filler for mature lips, such as a woman in her 50s, and involves more than simply injecting any filler into the lips hoping for the best. Our cosmetic doctor, Dr Kieren Bong, is widely known as the ‘Lip King of Scotland’, and one of his signature treatments is offering balanced, sensuous, and beautiful lip filler injections which are both natural-looking and age-appropriate.
Are women in their 50’s too old for lip fillers?
Definitely not! While lip filler injections are increasingly popular among women in their 20s and 30s, there is no upper age limit for this treatment. In fact, at our Glasgow clinic, we see many women in their 50s responding very well to this treatment. Our advanced lip filler injection for mature lips is a highly effective solution to age-related thinning lips. However, it is essential to mention that it can take more than one session and a higher quantity of filler to achieve satisfactory results in older women, significantly if the skin above the top lip has lengthened considerably.
Will it look natural?
Dr Bong is well known for his skill in creating subtle improvements in his patients’ appearance. His mantra is ‘people will notice, but nobody will know. In other words, most people will not even realise you have fillers on your lips. However, your friends, colleagues and family will notice that you look more youthful and vibrant. This is because we only use hyaluronic acid soft tissue filler, and the biggest safety net we can offer you is that in the unlikely event that you do not like the results, the filler can be dissolved. In other words, the effects can be reversed entirely.
If you have mature lips and are interested in finding out more about lip filler treatment, please get in touch with us to schedule a consultation with Dr Bong. During your consultation, Dr Bong will let you know what is achievable and, even more importantly, what is not possible. It is prudent to take a ‘slow and steady approach with lip filler treatments. It is far easier to increase the lip size with a second injecting session than to reduce/remove it after injecting too much when the treatment is initially administered. While it may be more costly to have the treatment over two separate sessions, it is the correct approach when dealing with mature lips.
Dr Bong’s practice will not only enhance your upper and lower lips for a more balanced look, but he will also not do so without first examining your entire face and formulating a balanced injection strategy for you. He will explain his lip augmentation approach in plain English and in a way that makes sense to you, including how his advanced injection technique aligns with what you are hoping to achieve.
