This is a minimally invasive treatment that takes only about 15 minutes to perform. The technique consists of injecting hyaluronic acid into the lips to increase their thickness, to highlight the outline and to lift the corners of the mouth, and to diminish the wrinkles on the side of the lips.
If it is the first time you are going to have a lip filler, some experts recommend that it be done in two or three times, seeing little by little how the lip evolves. In this way, you can shape it as desired until the desired result is obtained.
Why is it performed?
Lip filler treatment with hyaluronic acid is the best option to add volume to your lips. But not only that. A good specialist in peribuccal aesthetics can go far beyond the increase of volume, because thanks to hyaluronic acid can improve the structure of the lip: correcting the asymmetries of the mouth, mark the cupid’s bow, reduce the gummy smile, raise the corners, eliminate the bar code, rejuvenate the peribuccal area, outline the lip, and also make disappear the black triangles that are between the teeth.
What does it consist of?
Lip filler with hyaluronic acid is a method of lip filler without surgery that is performed by infiltration of hyaluronic acid outlining and filling the lip to create a natural and sensual lip.
What few people know is that this technique also serves to hydrate the lips and not only to increase their volume. Therefore, it is highly recommended for those who suffer from dehydrated or chapped lips, especially in the colder months.
What is the preparation for hyaluronic acid injections?
To prepare the skin before hyaluronic acid infiltration, two points must be taken into account:
- Avoid exposure to the sun and do not drink alcohol either the day before or the day of the treatment.
- Aspirin should not be taken for three days before “D” day. This will avoid the appearance of hematomas.
Is the postoperative recovery mild?
The recovery is very fast and mild, but you should avoid sun exposure for 48 hours after treatment and apply a little cold in the area. Hyaluronic acid is a substance that is reabsorbed by our body, therefore, the effects gradually diminish. Normally the results are seen in its initial state between six months to a year.
