Dermal fillers | Lip fillers Oakville | Merrion Medical Aesthetics Oakville

Key point: Most modern lip fillers are hyaluronic acid based gels designed to hydrate and softly add volume.

I use medical-grade hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers because HA integrates smoothly and supports natural-looking results for the lips and surrounding facial features. HA also attracts water, which enhances softness and shape.

If needed, HA is adjustable and dissolvable with hyaluronidase—an important safety advantage for precise refinement.

Key point: Yes—my technique prioritizes balance and proportion so your facial features look refreshed, not “done.”

Subtle dosing and layered placement let me soften signs of aging while preserving your expression. Think: you on your best day—no template faces here.

During consultation I map your anatomy, photo-document, and agree a conservative plan that can be built gradually.

Key point: Botox treats movement lines; fillers restore volume or shape—most patients benefit from a thoughtful combination.

Botox relaxes muscles that create frown lines, forehead lines, and crow’s feet. Fillers address volume loss (cheeks, lips, under-eye hollows) and contour. I’ll design a plan that fits your goals, downtime tolerance, and budget.

Key point: Most treatments are “socially ready” the same day; expect occasional mild swelling or pinpoint bruising for 24–72 hours.

Botox has essentially no downtime. Lip fillers and other HA injections may swell for a day or two (lips swell more). I provide aftercare to minimize swelling and help results settle quickly.

Key point: Longevity typically ranges 6–12 months in lips, depending on product, metabolism, and movement.

Because we use our lips constantly, they metabolize faster than mid-face areas. We’ll pick an HA formula that balances softness with staying power.

Key point: Yes—HA fillers can be dissolved with hyaluronidase to fine-tune or reverse.

This is part of why I prefer hyaluronic acid based products for first-time patients and for delicate areas like the lips.

Key point: No—we don’t provide hair restoration at Merrion, but we can recommend reputable medical practices if you’re exploring it.

Our focus is medical aesthetics for skin rejuvenation—botox, dermal fillers, peels, microneedling, and selective laser/energy resurfacing. Ask us for vetted referrals during your free consultation.

Key point: We start conservatively, respect facial proportions, and build gradually with review photos.

I tailor doses to your anatomy, light, and movement patterns. The goal is harmony—restoring soft curves and structure without drawing attention to “work done.”

Key point: Arrive well-hydrated, avoid blood-thinners when safe, and protect skin with SPF after treatment.

I’ll share a simple prep/aftercare checklist (cold packs, gentle cleansing, no heavy workouts for 24 hours post-injections, and daily broad-spectrum sunscreen).

Key point: Healthy adults with realistic goals do well; certain medical conditions, infections, or pregnancy mean we postpone.

We’ll review your health history, medications, and timing (e.g., upcoming events) to choose the safest plan and recovery time window.
