Improves Perioral & Lip Wrinkle reduction

With advancing age, the lips lose their shape, volume and moisture resulting in an aged appearance of a dry thinned out lip with downturned corners of the mouth and associated wrinkles. The lips then become disproportionate to the rest of the facial features resulting in an elder appearance.

At Dr Sknn, we sculpt lips taking the whole perioral area into consideration when treatments are planned. Dr Shaffu performs lip augmentations at Dr Sknn using Juvederm, a full aesthetic consultation prior to any treatment is performed including evaluating which signs of lip and facial ageing have occurred. Dr Shaffu then formulates a bespoke treatment plan including analysing areas that require improvement, in specific, to sculpt the perfect lips a variety of specialised techniques are used to improve the shape, volume and moisture of the lips.
