A reliable address for lip fillers in Amsterdam.

A lip filler treatment can be performed to create fuller lips, improve contour or correct any asymmetry. This treatment can make lips appear fuller, softer and more youthful. Not everyone has full lips. Also, lip volume can decrease with age. A lip filler treatment using hyaluronic acid filler provides the ideal solution for this.

I would like a natural result, is that possible?

At JECT Clinics, we believe a natural result is extremely important. Our doctors will look closely at the shape and volume of your lips prior to lip filler treatment. They will also look closely at the relationship between the upper and lower lip and any asymmetry. A treatment plan will be created based on your personal goals and desires. When filling the lips, your own lip shape will be kept as much as possible. Thus, the treatment gives a beautiful natural result that will continue to fit well with the rest of your face. Of course our doctors will advise you with honesty and attention.

What are the lips filled with?

The lips are filled with a hyaluronic acid filler. Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance in our bodies, especially in the skin. Because hyaluronic acid is naturally broken down in the body, the results of hyaluronic acid fillers are temporary. The exact length of effect varies from several months to about a year, depending on the specific product and the person's individual response to treatment. Hyaluronic acid fillers are popular because of their natural look, safety and temporary nature.

There are many different types of hyaluronic acid fillers. At JECT Clinics, we work exclusively with Restylane fillers for lips. This brand is considered the best filler in the world. Restylane was the first brand of hyaluronic acid fillers worldwide. Also, Restylane remains at the forefront of research and quality compared to other brands.

Specifically for the lips, we use Restylane Kysse. This is a special filler for naturally looking fuller lips. Restylane Kysse is unique because it uses a technology that makes the lips supple and allows them to move naturally. In addition to giving fuller lips, the hyaluronic acid in the filler also helps retain moisture. This gives enhanced hydration to the lips. The results last for a long time, an average of nine to 12 months. This makes it a popular choice for people who want fuller and beautifully defined lips.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long should the lips heal after treatment?

After lip filler treatment, it may take several days to two weeks for the lips to heal completely. Immediately after treatment, some side effects may occur, such as swelling, redness, bruising or sensitivity at the injection sites. These side effects usually disappear within a few days to a week. During this time, it is important to properly care for and protect the lips. Avoid heavy pressure on the lips, avoid hot drinks and exposure to direct sunlight, and use lip balm to keep the lips moisturized.

What should I not do after lip filler treatment?

After lip filler treatment, there are some things you should avoid to avoid complications and maintain the best results:

Avoid alcohol or smoking for 24 hours: Alcohol can dilate blood vessels and increase the risk of swelling and bruising. Avoiding alcohol during this period can promote the healing process and minimize any side effects. Smoking can delay healing and increase the risk of complications such as swelling, bruising and infection. In addition, smoking can accelerate the aging process of the skin, which can negatively affect the effect duration of the lip filler.
Avoid lip makeup for 24 hours: We recommend not applying makeup to the treated lips for the first 24 hours after lip filler treatment. This helps to prevent infection and minimizes the risk of irritation of the treated areas. However, it is important to continue to care for the lips with a neutral lip balm, such as petroleum jelly. After the first day, you can wear makeup again.
Avoid sports or strenuous exercise: For 48 hours after treatment, avoid intense physical activity. This is because sports or strenuous exercise can increase blood circulation and cause or worsen swelling. This may delay the healing process.
Avoid other facial treatments: We recommend avoiding facials, facial peels, microdermabrasion, microneedling and/or laser treatments for up to two weeks after treatment. These treatments can irritate the treated lips or increase the risk of complications
Avoid visiting the sauna or tanning bed: We recommend that you do not visit saunas or tanning beds for up to two weeks after lip filler treatment. Heat can cause swelling and inflammation, which can slow down the healing process and increase the risk of complications. In addition, it is important to avoid exposure to strong UV radiation. This includes direct sunlight, tanning beds and other sources of intense UV radiation. UV radiation can irritate the sensitive skin around the lips and cause inflammation, which can delay the healing process and increase the risk of complications. It is important to wear sunscreen with a high SPF during this period if you do have to go out in the sun.
Avoid swimming: We recommend avoiding swimming for up to two weeks after lip filler treatment. This applies to swimming pools, lakes, rivers and the sea. Avoiding swimming during this time can help protect the treated lips from exposure to bacteria and chemicals that may be present in the water, which can reduce the risk of infection.

Should I massage my lips after lip filler treatment?

In general, our doctors do indeed recommend massaging the lips after treatment. This should often be performed for two weeks, massaging the lips twice a day for several minutes. The main purpose of this is to prevent residual bumps. Our doctors provide clear and specific massage instructions after the lip filler treatment. It is important to follow them with proper attention.
‍
However, the advice to massage the lips may vary from person to person. Our doctors tailor the advice for each individual. It is always best to follow your practitioner's specific guidelines and recommendations and discuss any questions or concerns with them. They can give you the best advice based on your individual situation and the type of filler used.

When should I repeat the treatment?

Often a lip filler treatment is repeated after 9 to 12 months. However, this depends on several factors, including the type of filler used, your metabolism, lifestyle and individual response to treatment. In practice, we often see that the lip fillers stay in the body longer when previous lip filler treatments have already taken place. After several months, the filler is gradually broken down by your body, returning the volume and shape of your lips to their original state.
‍
When you notice the volume of your lips decreasing, you can make an appointment for a follow-up treatment. However, it is important not to undergo repeated treatments too often, as excessive injections can increase the risk of complications and cause an unnatural result. Therefore, we always recommend following our doctors' treatment advice to the best of your ability.
