Want fuller, more defined lips but unsure whether to choose lip tattooing, dermal fillers, or a combination? You’re not alone. Perth’s beauty enthusiasts are increasingly opting for these treatments to combat thinning lips, asymmetry, or fading colour. Let’s break down how each works, their pros and cons, and why combining them might give you the ultimate lip upgrade.
At Elite Look, we specialize in semi-permanent lip tattooing (like our popular Aquarelle Lip Blush Tattoo) and collaborate with trusted injectors to help Perth clients achieve balanced, natural-looking results. But first, let’s explore your options.
Think of lip tattoos and fillers as two sides of the same coin:
Lip Tattoo | Lip Filler |
---|---|
Adds long-lasting colour and definition | Adds temporary volume and plumpness |
Lasts 1–3 years | Lasts 6–12 months |
Minimal downtime (3–7 days) | Moderate downtime (7–14 days) |
Ideal for uneven pigment or shape | Perfect for thin lips or lost volume |
Costs $500–$1,000 | Costs $500–$800 per syringe |
Lip tattoos use pigment to stain the lips, creating a “your lips but better” look. For example, a Perth office worker might opt for a subtle lip blush to skip reapplying lipstick before meetings at Elizabeth Quay.
Lip fillers, meanwhile, use hyaluronic acid to add volume. A Fremantle local might choose fillers to restore youthful fullness lost with age.
Low Maintenance
Wake up with Instagram-ready lips. No smudged lipstick during Swan River picnics or Cottesloe swims.
Sun-Smart Solution
Perth’s UV rays fade traditional lipstick. Tattooed pigment resists fading, even in our harsh climate.
Customisable Styles
Choose from:
Our Claremont clients often pair lip tattoos with eyebrow microblading for a polished, low-effort look.
Fillers excel if you:
A Scarborough beachgoer might get fillers before summer for a voluminous pout in photos.
Many Perth clients at our Subiaco studio pair both treatments for:
✅ Enhanced Shape
Fillers add volume; tattoos define edges.
✅ Longer-Lasting Results
Tattoos maintain colour as fillers dissolve.
✅ Cost Efficiency
Fewer filler top-ups needed over time.
Pro Tip: Get fillers first. Let swelling subside (2–4 weeks), then tattoo over the new shape for crisp, lasting definition.
Climate
Lifestyle
Active? Tattoos survive surf sessions better than lipstick.
Trends
Perth favours natural looks. Our Aquarelle technique mimics a barely-there tint.
So, you’re sold on enhancing your lips—but how do you pick the right option? Let’s cut through the noise. Whether you’re sipping coffee in Leederville or jogging along Hillarys Boat Harbour, your lifestyle matters when choosing between lip tattoos, fillers, or both.
Imagine this: You’re scrolling Instagram and spot a Perth influencer with the perfect pout. Is it filler? Tattoo? Both? Let’s break down how to match your goals with the right treatment.
Pro Tip: Bring inspo pics to your Elite Look consultation. Our Subiaco artists use them to map your ideal shape and colour.
Let’s be real—no one loves needles. Here’s how Perth clients describe each treatment:
Lip Tattoo | Lip Filler |
---|---|
“Like tiny cat scratches” | “A deep pinch” |
Numbing cream provided | Numbing cream and ice used |
Mild swelling for 1–2 days | Swelling peaks at 48 hours |
Fun fact: Many clients binge Netflix during tattoo sessions. “I watched Bridgerton while getting my lip blush,” says Sarah from East Perth.
Lip enhancement isn’t cheap, but smart choices save money long-term.
Scenario: You have $1,500 to spend.
Winner? Option B. Elite Look’s combo packages stretch your dollar further.
We’ve all seen those photos—lips so overfilled they could double as pool floats. Here’s how Elite Look and our partner injectors keep your results looking natural:
Start Small
Think of fillers like seasoning: a little goes a long way. Most Perth clients need just 0.5ml for their first treatment.
Choose Experience
Our injectors use micro-droplet techniques to mimic natural lip texture—no “shelf lip” here[6].
Wait It Out
Swelling lies! That “duck lip” panic at hour 24? It’ll settle by day 7.
Case Study: Emma from Fremantle almost cancelled her work Christmas party after fillers. “By day 5, the swelling dropped, and I had perfect Kardashian-lite lips!”
Pairing tattoo and filler isn’t just trendy—it’s smart. Think of it like building a house:
Fillers = Foundation
Adds volume and structure.
Tattoo = Paint
Defines edges and adds colour.
Perth Perk: Our UV-resistant pigments (Aquarelle Lip Blush) won’t fade during Swan Valley wine tours.
Client | Treatment | Result |
---|---|---|
Mia, 28 (Northbridge) | 0.5ml filler + Ombre tattoo | 20% more volume, defined Cupid’s bow |
Lena, 45 (Cottesloe) | 1ml filler + Lip blush | Restored 1990s overline, natural tint |

Picture this: You walk into a boutique in Claremont and ask for a dress that fits you perfectly—not the mannequin. That’s exactly how we approach lip enhancement at Elite Look. In 2025, Perth’s beauty scene demands personalization, and cookie-cutter lips are as outdated as dial-up internet. Let’s explore how we craft bespoke lip transformations for every face shape, skin tone, and lifestyle across WA.
Perth’s diversity is its strength—from the golden-skinned surfers of Scarborough to the olive-toned professionals in West Perth. Generic lip solutions? They’re like serving Margaret River wine at a Swan Valley brewery. Here’s what makes customization crucial:
Local Fact: 78% of Elite Look clients request adjustments to “standard” lip shapes to match their heritage (2025 Perth Cosmetic Trends Report).
Face Shape Science
Example: A Fremantle fisherwoman with a strong jawline got subtle ombre shading to create feminine curves without losing her rugged charm.
Skin Tone Alchemy
Our artists mix pigments like master vintners, considering:
Lifestyle Mapping
Age-Appropriate Enhancement
Gone are the flat, static lip tattoos. Our 3D Aquarelle Blush uses pigments that:
🌡️ Warm with your body temperature (perfect for chilly Albany mornings)
💧 Adjust to hydration levels (no more chalky winter lips)
☀️ Resist UV fading (tested in WA’s brutal sun)

Imagine your face as a masterpiece—lips are the bold brushstrokes, but without balanced brows and defined eyes, the painting feels incomplete. At Elite Look, we don’t just enhance lips; we craft head-to-lip harmony that turns Perth’s busiest women into effortless beauties. Let’s explore how pairing lip enhancements with our eyebrow microblading and eyeliner tattoos creates a symphony of features that’s so Perth, it’s practically coastal-core.
Think of your face as a trifecta:
Neglect one, and the whole composition wobbles like a Leederville barista’s latte art. Here’s how we balance all three for Perth’s signature understated glam:
Perth’s harsh light exposes every beauty shortcut. Our powder brow tattoos solve two problems at once:
Brow Benefit | Lip Synergy |
---|---|
Defines face shape | Balances lip volume |
Corrects asymmetry | Draws attention to cupid’s bow |
Adds depth | Makes lip color appear richer |
Local Hack: Claremont socialites pair ombre brows with nude lip blush for that “I woke up flawless” farmer’s market chic.
A Fremantle fisherman’s daughter taught us this truth: “Eyes that sparkle make lips look fuller without filler.” Here’s why 68% of our lip clients add eyeliner tattoos:
Optical Illusion
Low-Effort Glam
Time Machine Effect
Pro Move: Combine smokey eyeliner tattoo with ombre lips for sunset drinks at Cottesloe’s Il Lido.
Three services, one transformative equation:
Eyebrows (E) + Eyes (E) + Lips (L) = 5x Confidence
“I got all three before my Swan Valley wedding,” says Priya, 29. “Photos looked airbrushed—no editing needed!”
