Target Dark Spots, Melasma, and Uneven Pigmentation Safely

Hyperpigmentation is a common skin condition caused by an overproduction of melanin, the pigment responsible for skin colour. It can appear as dark spots, age spots, melasma, or other areas of discoloration and is often triggered by sun exposure, hormones, genetics, or certain medications.

At our Norwich aesthetics clinic, we offer a range of treatments to reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation and restore a more even, youthful complexion. Depending on the severity, options include topical creams, chemical peels, and advanced laser therapies, all tailored to your skin type and goals.

Do lip fillers hurt?

Lip fillers are generally well tolerated and most patients describe the treatment as mildly uncomfortable rather than painful. A numbing cream or local anaesthetic is applied beforehand, and the filler itself contains a gentle anaesthetic to make the process more comfortable. You may feel a slight pinch or pressure during the injections and some tenderness or swelling afterwards, but this usually settles within a few days. Overall, the procedure is quick, safe, and designed to be as comfortable as possible.

Yes, lip fillers are considered safe when carried out by a qualified and experienced medical professional. The products used are made of hyaluronic acid, a substance that naturally occurs in the body, which means they are well-tolerated and can be safely broken down over time. Like any treatment, there are some risks, such as swelling, bruising, or minor asymmetry, but these are usually temporary and manageable. Choosing a medically trained practitioner is the best way to ensure the procedure is performed safely and tailored to your needs.

Lip fillers are not permanent and typically last between 6 to 12 months, depending on the individual and the type of filler used. Factors such as your metabolism, lifestyle, and how much filler is applied can all influence how long the results remain visible. Over time, the body naturally breaks down the filler, and many people choose to have top-up treatments to maintain their desired look. Your practitioner will advise you on the best treatment plan to achieve results that feel natural and long-lasting.

During your lip filler consultation, you’ll have a discussion with Dr Saba Raja, about the lip problems you wish to address, and the new lip look you’re keen to try. She will help guide you through the different lip shape options, and give you honest, expert advice, about the shape that is likely to best suit you.

Yes, you can eat and drink after having lip fillers, but it’s best to wait until the numbing cream has completely worn off to avoid accidentally biting your lips. For the first 24 hours, it’s sensible to avoid alcohol, very hot drinks, and spicy foods, as these can increase swelling or irritation. Sticking to gentle foods and staying hydrated will help your lips heal comfortably. Most people return to normal eating and drinking the same day, with only minor adjustments needed during the initial healing period.
