From - £125
Who it is for
-
Lines that show when you purse or relax lips.
-
Lipstick that bleeds up into the lines.
-
Not nose-to-mouth folds. Not marionette lines.
How it works
01 Assess
Face to face. A line that only shows when you purse is movement. A line that stays when the mouth is still is etched.
02 Soften
Filler in the etched line. A small amount. Not a bigger lip.
03 Review
Settle, then look again. We do not use anti-wrinkle on the upper lip.

Common questions
What are smoking lines?
Vertical lines on the upper lip. They can show when you purse, and some stay when the mouth is still. You do not have to smoke to have them.
Are these nose-to-mouth lines?
No. Nose-to-mouth lines run from the side of the nose to the corner of the mouth. Smoking lines are on the lip itself.
Do you use anti-wrinkle here?
No. We do not inject anti-wrinkle into the upper lip. This sitting is filler, and only for a line that is etched.
What if the line only shows when I purse?
Filler does not stop a movement. If there is no line at rest, we say so and we do not treat it for the sake of it.
Will my lip get bigger?
The aim is the line, not a larger lip. A small amount can still swell for a few days. That swelling is not the result.
How much is it?
From £125. The amount is decided in the room, not from a photo.
How long does it last?
Months, not years. Not permanent.
What is the downtime?
Swelling for a few days, often more than the amount would suggest. Makeup when the skin allows.
