At Amanda Breslin Aesthetics, patient safety and natural results will always come first. For that reason, I inject a maximum of 1ml of dermal filler into the lips in a single appointment.
The lips are a highly vascular and delicate area. Limiting the volume in one sitting helps reduce excessive pressure within the tissues and lowers the risk of complications. Safety is never something I compromise on and a controlled, measured approach is always best.
Lips also swell immediately after treatment. Injecting more than 1ml at once can make it difficult to properly assess shape, symmetry and balance on the day. By keeping the volume conservative, I can ensure the final result once healed is refined, proportional and suited to your facial features.
Gradual enhancement is key to maintaining soft, natural movement and preventing issues such as overfilling or migration. The lip tissue can only accommodate a certain amount at one time and overloading the lips can lead to stretching or distortion over time.
If additional volume is desired, we simply review at 2–4 weeks once swelling has fully settled. This allows us to build the filler safely and strategically!
This is just something Iv been asked a lot about recently.. Safety first! Ax 🤍✨💉
