Lip fillers at Cloud Nine Medical Aesthetics start from £120 for 0.5ml, £150 for 0.7ml, and £180 for 1ml of premium hyaluronic acid filler. This includes your consultation, treatment, and 2-week follow-up. We're just a 10-minute drive from Merthyr Tydfil town centre, offering the same quality as Cardiff clinics but at better prices with free parking.

Most patients describe dermal fillers as very tolerable. We use premium fillers containing lidocaine (numbing agent) and can apply additional numbing cream if needed. Kirk's gentle technique and use of cannulas where appropriate minimises discomfort. Most patients rate the discomfort as 2-3 out of 10.

Dermal fillers typically last 6-18 months depending on the area treated. Lip fillers usually last 6-9 months, while cheek and jawline fillers can last 12-18 months. Individual results vary based on metabolism, lifestyle factors, and the type of filler used. We offer maintenance packages for regular patients from Merthyr Tydfil.

At Cloud Nine, we specialise in natural-looking results. Kirk's approach focuses on enhancing your natural features rather than creating an overdone look. We start conservatively and can always add more. During your consultation, we'll discuss your goals and show you examples to ensure we achieve the look you want.

Kirk is trained in complications management and carries hyaluronidase (dissolving agent) for safety. We're HIW compliant, Save Face verified, and carry £6M medical malpractice insurance.

Botox relaxes muscles to smooth expression lines (wrinkles from movement) while dermal fillers add volume to plump lips, restore cheek volume, and fill static lines. Many patients benefit from both treatments - Botox for the upper face (forehead, crow's feet) and fillers for volume loss (lips, cheeks, folds). We'll advise the best approach during your free consultation.

Yes, hyaluronic acid fillers can be safely dissolved using hyaluronidase enzyme. We offer filler dissolving services starting at £150 for one area. This is useful for corrections or if you want to start fresh. We always carry hyaluronidase in clinic for safety. Many patients come to us from other clinics for corrections.
