FAQS

The best way to book a treatment is through our online booking system however if your treatment isn’t listed please send us a message through Instagram or email

For all dermal filler treatments we use a fantastic numbing cream that contains a local anaesthetic called lidocaine. We never start the treatment until you feel completely comfortable and numb. All of the fillers we use also have lidocaine incorporated within them. Some clients may experience some minimal discomfort. Anti-wrinkle treatments are minimally invasive and no numbing cream is required.

We always ensure that when you leave your appointment your filler is completely smooth, we also give strict post treatment advice to ensure the filler stays this way. However some individuals may find that they still experience lumpiness, thankfully this isn’t something we come across very often at Derma Plus Aesthetics, due to our injection technique and strict post treatment advice.

We always aim to keep the lips as natural as possible and usually adhere to the golden phi ratio to give you a natural fullness. If you have seen some of our clients with slightly fuller looking lips, this is because they have requested this look. We carry out the procedure in stages and allow you to have a look at each stage to give you more control over the final result and to ensure you leave 100% happy.

We have listed the treatment time next to each individual treatment. Each procedure may only take as little as a few minutes; however we often spend a substantial length of time during your consultation to ensure we give you your desired outcome. Anti-wrinkle appointments will take approximately 20 minutes, dermal filler treatments take between 30-60 minutes.

All of our clinics have parking either directly outside or nearby.  

We accept bank transfer or cash payments, as well as card payments though there is a 2% charge for these.  We do not offer finance options.

Yes, we require a small non-refundable deposit via bank transfer when booking to secure your appointment. Your deposit will be deducted from your total.

All deposits are non-refundable, however we may be able to hold your deposit for when you are able to re-book if more than 7 days  notice has been given.

We ask all clients to ensure they arrive on time, if you are late to your appointment we may not have time to carry out your treatment and you will lose your deposit. All clients need to adhere to the Covid policy restrictions. We are happy to reschedule the appointment with 7 days notice, but after this time or you may loose your deposit.

We currently only work with the highest quality dermal filler and anti-wrinkle products, produced by market leading manufacturers, such as Juvederm and Teosyal. We will explain the different brands of filler during your consultation and allow you to make an informed decision on which one you want to choose. If you have a specific product you would like us to use, please contact us.

It completely depends on the individual and which filler you decide to choose. The majority of clients come back for a lip filler top up within 3 months of their first appointment, however once you have had fillers for a while the results generally last longer and clients may leave it 6-12 months between top ups. Juvederm Volift is a longer lasting filler which lasts around 12-15 months. Anti-wrinkle injection top-ups may be required every 3-6 months depending on which treatment you have.  

Everybody has a certain amount of empty space inside their lips which we have to fill before we add any volume. Clients may experience some generalised swelling after treatment however after around 10-14 days, when all your swelling has gone down and the filler has settled clients often find that their lips decrease in size quite significantly. If you want subtle volume adding to both top and bottom lip we generally recommend starting with 1ml of filler. You will have an in-depth consultation with one of our practitioners, prior to your treatment, who will help you decide on the best volume to choose.

Everybody has a certain amount of empty space inside their lips which we have to fill before we can add volume. Clients may experience some generalised swelling after treatment however after 10-14 days, when all your swelling has gone down and the filler has settled, clients can find that their lips decrease in size quite significantly. This is completely normal and happens to many individuals, you will need to keep building your lips up by having regular top ups in the beginning.  

Everyone is completely different. Some clients find that they won’t get any bruising/swelling at all, whereas other clients may experience significant bruising/swelling. We give pre/post treatment advice to minimise your risk of bruising, however it cannot always be avoided.  

Dermal filler can be dissolved with the injection of hyaluronidase. This is an enzyme which speeds up the natural break down of hyaluronic acid (dermal filler). We would only recommend the use of this substance in an absolute emergency as it has the potential to break-down naturally occurring hyaluronic acid (natural tissue). In the rare instance you are unhappy with your treatment, we recommend softly massaging the area to help stimulate bond breakdown.  

Yes, with all treatments you will receive an in-depth consultation with one of our experienced practitioners. We will ask you about your desired outcomes and expectations; we will also give you our recommendations as to which treatment will make you look more aesthetically pleasing.  

It is very difficult to make a full recommendation based on a picture and we will need to see you in person to make a full assessment. However if you send us some clear pictures we may be able to give you some guidance.  

For ALL of our treatments clients must be 18 and over. We will not treat anyone younger than this even with parental consent. If you look younger than 25 you may be asked for ID.
