Lips Treatment in Manchester
When people say Lips in aesthetics, they almost always mean lip augmentation with dermal fillers. In the UK, that usually means hyaluronic acid filler injected into different layers of the lips. Hyaluronic acid attracts water, so it adds volume, structure, and hydration. The injector places small amounts strategically to shape the border (vermillion), add body, or correct asymmetry. The product sits in the tissue and gradually breaks down over time as your body metabolises it. ([nhs.uk], [mayoclinic.org])
