Dr Niru's Technique
Always conservative — Dr Niru starts with 0.5ml maximum on first-time patients and reviews at 2 weeks before considering more. Multiple precise injection points rather than bolus injections, for natural shape and feel. The vermillion border is treated with extra care to maintain definition.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much filler do I need?
This depends on your natural lip size and desired outcome. During your consultation, Dr Niru will discuss options and recommend the right amount for a balanced result. Most first-time patients start with 0.5-1ml.
Will it look natural?
Absolutely. Dr Niru's approach is to enhance your natural features, not create an overdone look. A gradual approach is always recommended.
How painful is it?
The filler contains lidocaine (a numbing agent), and topical numbing cream is applied beforehand. Most patients find it very tolerable.
How much should lip fillers cost in the UK?
Reasonable UK pricing for lip filler with a regulated medical/dental professional is £180-£300 per 1ml syringe. Significantly cheaper than this often signals a non-medical injector — that pricing gap reflects training, indemnity, premises and product quality. At The Azim Clinic, lip filler starts from £200 per ml with Dr Niru, GDC No. 170811.
Is 0.5ml lip filler noticeable?
Yes — subtly. 0.5ml is the typical 'first-time' dose for natural enhancement. It produces visible hydration and a slight increase in body without changing your lip shape dramatically. If you want a clearly different look, 1ml is the more typical starting volume — but we always recommend starting small and adding more later rather than over-filling on session one.
How much does 1ml lip filler cost?
UK average is £200-£350 per 1ml. At The Azim Clinic, 1ml lip filler is £200, with no in-appointment up-sell. The full plan, including whether 0.5ml might be a better starting point, is agreed at the free consultation.
What age is best for lip fillers?
Most patients seek lip filler between mid-20s and mid-40s. Younger than mid-20s, natural lip volume is usually adequate and we typically advise waiting. Older than mid-40s, lip filler still works but is often combined with other treatments (peri-oral anti-wrinkle, skin boosters) because lip change after that age is often driven as much by surrounding skin and muscle change as by lip volume.
