Page 3 | Do You Have Lip Fillers?

childofthe607080s · 19/10/2025 12:15

I would never say to someone’s face and if asked I would be polite so you can’t say no one notices

dh sometimes asks something like “was that face slightly strange “ edit out of hearing -

Yes, and I love them. My lips have kinda got thinner with age which annoyed me as they used to have a gorgeous plump shape so I have them topped up once a year. They look great.

As for my motives (because you specifically asked) - my lips thinning with age upset me just as my hair thinning with age would upset someone else- noone would judge anyone for being upset about thinning hair so I dont see why lips changing with age would be any different.

I really didn’t realise it can be just a once a year thing you have done. Kinda thought it would be an every 8 week thing. Guess it’s not that expensive after all.

It’s interesting when people say, ‘nobody has noticed’. How do you prove a negative?!

Because you know your own relationships best. My mum, who I’m super close to and we talk about everything, hasn’t noticed. I have no qualms about telling her, but I was waiting for her to notice (my litmus test, if you like, as if anyone was going to notice and say something, it would be her 100%) and I’d have been happy to say “yeah I’ve had a little bit of filler” but a year later I’m still waiting 😂

I think very thin lips are unattractive so a little bit of filler can really help. I hated my lips when I was younger and 100% would have had filler. Somehow they've naturally got a little bit fuller over the years so I've not succumbed.

I have naturally big lips and was teased when I was younger. Now they happen to be in fashion, like big arses they never used to be. Why are big lips such a thing now?!

I imagine people get the filler dissolved rather than live with something they are not happy with.

Oh right didn't know they could do that.

Someone I worked with had a lip flip
The wet inner part of the lip showed and she spat all the time .

Exactly. It may not be filler but it’s not normal to see the underside of your lip like that!

It must be awful if they really don’t look how one expected and they are really upset by them, especially after forking out for them and having to live with them.

The women I see with them look like ducks from the side. Their top lips stick out unnaturally.

Not for me. I feel like beautiful women make themselves unattractive with them. Natural lips are far more attractive in my opinion.

Is she happy with them though?

I’ve also got a disappearing top lip due to my age - do you get it done just on the top one?

Show quote history

Yes only the top one, the doctor I go to is really good. He asked what look I was after as I said as natural as possible. He said if I wanted the full blown up look then he wasn’t the person to do it.

I have but it’s so subtle that no-one, and I mean no-one, has noticed. Not even my own husband who couldn’t really tell I’d had anything done. I go to a licensed medical clinic who are active in campaigning for regulation in the industry. They don’t do the frozen forehead look or big overblown lips. Their aim is giving (mostly) mature women a bit of confidence back, and 75% of their work is fixing the backstreet lash tech botched jobs. I’ve always had very full lips naturally but in my mid-50s they’d begun to “deflate” and look a bit baggy with age and weight loss. I’d also acquired some lovely “smoker’s lines” on my upper lip even though I’ve never touched a cigarette and they really bothered me. So I had a tiny amount of filler put in to plump out the volume and lines. It’s just enough that I can see the difference, I feel like I have my own lips back and I’m absolutely delighted. I’ve had it around a year now and they have recommended a review every 18 months or so.

Ah ok that’s totally fair enough, really interesting to hear people’s reasoning to why they have lip fillers, makes you understand more about them. I guess for some it also becomes an addiction when they just want them bigger each time.

Nope. But I have full lips anyway so fascinating to see it as a trend

Ah sorry I missed this pic earlier just went back to have a look when another poster mentioned it.

I have to say your lips looking stunning and very natural.

No. Facially I’m low maintenance and happy to be so. I do spend a lot on my six weekly hair cut and colour though.

It's a typical MN 'derision poorly disguised as naïve curiosity' thread. There are gazillions of them. Wide-eyed OP saying 'Oh but I don't understand and I'm really, really curious. No judgement, obviously! If only someone could explain...', when all they actually want is to get everyone to join them in bitching about people they think have inferior taste. And hopefully attract some of the posters who actually have that thing, so they can ask them disingenuous questions about it.

I wouldn't have lip fillers, but there's no need to be an arse about it.

Or posters like yourself trying to stir things up between posters. There gazillions of your type.

Yes, I’m mid 50’s and now have nearly normal sized lips (still small) compared with virtually no top lip.
How about you OP?

I’ve also got a disappearing top lip due to my age - do you get it done just on the top one?

Mademetoxic · 19/10/2025 11:12

👏 side point of view - always noticeable no matter how small they seem to be! They give the person a weird shape lip from the side hahaha.

Show quote history

Well yeah but if someone has very thin lips then they might think that's a price worth paying for looking better overall, if thin lips don't suit them.

Having full duck lips done is clearly mad, but it's a matter of degree.

I mean you didn’t really articulate the point of your thread very well though did you? Just an abrupt ‘do you have lip fillers’ so not sure why you’re so pleased with yourself that the PP didn’t get the point when you didn’t even explain ‘the point’.

It seems you have no point other than to childishly say ‘wow don’t some women look so ‘scary’ with their lip filler’ and ‘I wonder why’ when it’s obvious why. Beauty is subjective but if you get off on starting these pointless threads you do you boo 🙄.

Why do people like yourselves post on threads you seem to think have no point? Why not just close the post down and get on with your day rather than making useless comments.

I have s lip blush, so not a filler as such but a semi permanent lip liner & lipstick

I love it, gives my face a bit of colour & still going strong after 2.5 years

@ConnieHeart

Ooh, can I ask where you had this done? I have the palest lips and look so much better with lipstick, but it is a faff.
