There are lip fillers that can be less invasive and require shorter recovery times. For example, Fotona’s laser lip treatment (LipLase) can achieve a natural plumping up of the lips without the need for injections or time recovering from swelling and bruising.
This article explores the different alternatives to lip fillers currently available, and details the different benefits and potential drawbacks of each one.
The CREO Clinic’s lip expert and aesthetic doctor, Dr. Gina Schoeman, is able to create artful adjustments to the lips using Fotona LipLase treatments. Her targeted laser applications harness the power of both Er:YAG and Nd:YAG laser modalities to enhance the volume of the lips in a short, non-invasive, and highly effective procedure.
It’s crucial to consult with an aesthetic doctor, for safe and effective lip enhancement treatments to ensure the best outcomes and minimise risks.

While injectable lip fillers can be an excellent treatment for people who have lack or have lost significant lip volume, there are some people that may prefer to avoid lip filler injections. Some may have an aversion to needles, for example, or feel concerned about the possible complications such as bruising, swelling or vascular occlusion. Whatever your concern, there are alternatives available that can achieve similar results and offer more security from side-effects.
The CREO Clinic offers targeted Fotona LipLase treatment to volumize and smooth lips without using filler injections. LipLase is a holistic treatment that not only gives instant plumpness to the lips but also smooths their texture, including wrinkles and smokers lines around the natural contours of the lip area.
LipLase works by stimulating the lower and upper lip area using Er:YAG and Nd:YAG laser energy to stimulate the production of collagen. Collagen gives strength and elasticity to the skin, smoothing out fine lines and plumping up the lips. The treatment is non-invasive, requires no downtime, and its enhancements are long lasting – up to 6 months before a top up may be required. Its effects can be more modest than lip fillers, but our patients are always delighted by the aesthetic improvements it makes.
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is an ingredient used in many natural lip fillers and lip enhancing products. It occurs naturally in the body and is reported to create fuller lips by attracting and retaining water in the skin, giving them volume and hydration.
HA can be applied needle-free and topically using lip pencils, glosses, serums, or balms, and can help to plump and smooth the lips by increasing the hydration of the top layers of skin. These topical applications may make temporary improvements, but there is little clinical evidence for their efficacy as a lip plumper, and they are unlikely to offer long lasting lip enhancement.
Lip masks generally come in either a palm or a bio cellulose gel that can be applied to the lips then left for a period – sometimes overnight – before it is removed. Lip masks can contain different types of moisturisers that ensure your lips are hydrated and help to nourish your lips.
The effect of lip masks as a lip filler alternative is often limited, and may differ in effectiveness between different varieties. Use of lip masks cannot be considered as a way to achieve significant enhancements to the lips and lip area.
Hydrafacial Perk is technology designed to administer hydration serums to the lips and other areas of skin. It contains different hydrating ingredients such as peony extract and peppermint that may help improve lip plumpness. It can be applied at home to maximise results, but Hydrafacial Perk is unlikely to create significant changes to the lips, and is often used as a complementary treatment to more long-term alternatives, such as LipLase.
LipLase is cheaper than lip filler while still providing high-quality results. LipLase creates deep lying neocollagenesis – improving the lips and the skin around the lips in a holistic and long lasting way. The Fotona laser is precise and generally provides even results.
The cost of LipLase treatments at the CREO Clinic begin from £290, whereas lip filler begins from £350.
Dr. Schoeman will provide more information on the number of LipLase sessions you will need assessing your needs during your first consultation. After this, a full cost breakdown can be provided.
The most effective alternative to lip fillers are LipLase laser treatments – it has similarly long lasting results, and can create noticeable enhancements to the lips, lip lines, and skin around the lips. It improves plumpness, overall volume, and also reduces fine lines around the mouth.
There are many methods that can help to plump lips without filler, such as lip masks, topical hyaluronic acid applications, and the highly effective Fotona LipLase treatment.
Non-invasive lip filler refers to treatments that can improve the volume and firmness of the lips without the need for injections. Many people want to avoid injectable dermal fillers, and thus prefer to use laser treatments such as Fotona LipLase that can provide similar, natural -looking enhancements without the use of needles.
As a highly experienced lip expert and aesthetic doctor, Dr. Schoeman has made countless successful lip filler treatments, always achieving natural-looking, long-lasting, lip plumping results on several skin tones. Her knowledge of the Fotona SP Dynamis laser allows her to expertly apply LipLase to give lips proportionate, balanced volume that addresses natural signs of ageing and gives the lips a youthful appearance.
