Lip & Cheek Augmentation

How does lip enhancement work?

As we age, our lip size often becomes smaller and loses its’ structure. Hylauronic acid dermal fillers can enhance the lips by increasing volume, correcting asymmetries, adding hydration, improving the lip borders, and lifting the corners, in addition to improving the texture of the lips and the lines above the upper lip. For the area around the mouth e.g. upper lip lines, skin rejuvenation treatments can help reduce the lines, or enhance the effectiveness and longevity of filler products. The choice of products used depends on the clients request. Fine products for fine lines, subtle lip definition and rehydrating the lips, or thicker stronger products for fuller lip volume and shape enhancement.

Some Patients fear appearing overdone with dermal fillers, especially to the lips. We understand your concern, and each patient is individually assessed to provide you with a natural looking lip enhancement.

“I graduated from Guy’s Hospital Dental School, London in 1976 and worked for 8 years in the Hospital and National Health Services in London, Kent and Wales, including the establishment of several successful private Practices.

I studied general practitioner Orthodontics during this period before spending several years in the United States running an airline company and attending many courses and seminars in Oral Surgery.

In 1994, I undertook a partnership, and eventual succession, in a large multi discipline Practice in Germany, where my role was, primarily, in the field of Maxillo-Facial and Oral Surgery, Orthodontics and Cosmetic Dentistry.

I spent the period 2000-2005, working in Southern Africa, in the Oral Surgery department of a hospital as well as part- time in a private Dental Practice.

I am an accredited provider of INVISALIGN orthodontic treatments.

During the last 20 years, I have undertaken advanced training in the use of Botulinum Toxin ( Botox, Dysport and Xeomin) and Dermal Fillers, not only for their therapeutic (medicinal) uses, but also for appearance medicine.

I am accredited by TC Aesthetic Academy in Harley Street, London and also by the Australasian Academy of Dento Facial Aesthetics (AADFA). I am admitted to the International Fellowship in Advanced Aesthetic Science, having interned in Seoul, Korea.

I am a trainer and lecturer in the MATA training academy of Aesthetic Medicine, awarding Level 7 diplomas to postgraduate students.

“I started my Tertiary education at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, Sweden, obtaining my BSc (Hons) in 1995 and then embarked on my PhD, graduating in 2004 . My main dissertation focused on deciphering complexities associated with signal transduction in Basel Cell Carcinoma (BCC).

In 2006, I moved to New Zealand to join the Liggins Institute at the University of Auckland as an NRCGD research fellow, working on epigenetic regulation of human embryo implantation.

In 2008, I moved into the area of molecular diagnosis and was promoted to section leader at LabPLUS within Auckland Hospital- a position I held until my resignation, in 2021, to provide full time Aesthetic services to my patients.

During the last 12 months I have been at the forefront of the team managing the current COVID-19 pandemic and prior to that, a similar role, managing the Swine Flu pandemic, MERS and the ZIKA virus outbreaks.

I am a multi published author and a technical expert for International Accreditation New Zealand in the field of Medical Testing.

I was pivotal in establishing guidelines for HPV testing as a member of the National Screening Unit of the ministry of Health National Cervical Screening Program. I was also a committee member and representative for the New Zealand Institute of Medical Laboratory Science (NZIMLS) and of the National Cervical Pathology Training Service (NZPTS), to support the development, organisation and delivery of HPV training in New Zealand.

I served on the board of the New Zealand Dental Research Foundation, reviewing and allocating funding for research applications.

I have been, and am registered with the Medical Laboratory Science Board of New Zealand, since 2008.

My second career, and passion, as an Aesthetician started in 2005 and I have completed Diploma training in Appearance Medicine including, Botulinum Toxin, Dermal Fillers, All Platelet Rich (PRP) therapies. I have also achieved Diplomas in many advanced treatment therapies including PDO and PCL Threads, Hair Transplantation as well as being fully accredited on Medical Grade and IPL Lasers. I recently completed training on the Cooltech and Ulfit body sculpting machines as well as the Tesla Former body systems.

I have been operating my own Clinic, Glowry, since 2005 and am excited about the amalgamation with Robert and Wellington Cosmetic Clinic. We hope that the new Glowry Cosmetic Clinic will be privileged to look after your aesthetic and appearance needs.”

Teri Robson

“I am a fully qualified beauty therapist and have been working in my chosen Profession for 8 years. I am passionate about delivering patients professional advice and advanced skin treatments in order to help achieve their skin and appearance goals.

I graduated from the Universal College of Learning in 2011 with a Diploma in Beauty Therapy and since then have been trained in many advanced skin therapies including Medical Grade and IPL Lasers, Carbon laser, Dermal Needling, PRP Protocols, Ultrasound skin tightening and recently the clinic took delivery of the Cryomed Cooltech and Tesla Former body sculpting and fat freeze machines which I am now fully trained on.

I have also been accepted onto the MATA course leading to a Masters diploma in Aesthetic Medicine and whilst my current scope of practice precludes me from any of the injectable treatments, I am relishing the opportunity to attain a diploma level of knowledge which will, hopefully, lead in time to Beauty Therapists being allowed to inject under the direct supervision of a doctor- as is the case in the UK and elsewhere.

I have been promoted to the role of Clinic manager within the Glowry organisation and I am looking forward to developing the portfolio of treatments and the quality of care that we all aspire to.

I love to make patients feel confident in their skin by performing advanced skin treatments on the face and body, providing professional skincare advice to achieve a youthful, healthy and radiant skin.

In my spare time I enjoy spending time with family, friends and fur babies, reading, going to the gym and relaxing at the beach. I love food and enjoy baking yummy treats. I also love travelling and going on weekend adventures.”
