Lips augmentation and shaping
The hyaluronic acid lip reshaping procedure is a minimally invasive procedure that is recommended for patients who are dissatisfied with the shape of their lips.
The procedure allows to enlarge them, change their contours, as well as firm or moisturize them. It is performed under local anesthesia and takes about 1 hour. The effect of full and moisturized lips lasts for 6. to 12. months, depending on the preparation used and the individual predisposition of the patient.
Hyaluronic acid and lips augmentation – what is it?
Hyaluronic acid is an organic chemical compound from the group of polysaccharides and a natural biopolymer. In the human body, it can be found, m.in, the vitreous humor of the eye, lacrimal fluid, intervertebral discs or synovial fluid. However, the highest content of hyaluronic acid, as much as 56%, is found in the skin, providing it with adequate elasticity and hydration. Hyaluronic acid was first isolated from the bovine eyeball in 1934. From the very beginning, it aroused the interest of scientists and as its properties were discovered, it found wider and wider applications, mainly in medicine (dentistry, gynecology, ophthalmology, orthopedics), and in recent years also in cosmetology and aesthetic medicine. Currently, hyaluronic acid is one of the most popular tissue fillers, with which women and men can reduce scars, signs of aging, improve facial contours or shape and enlarge lips.
Lips augmentation – about the procedure
Hyaluronic acid, which occurs naturally in the human body, has a huge impact on the appearance of the lips, so when the body begins to produce less of it with age, the shape of the lips visibly changes. However, the passage of time is not an obstacle to having sensual and shapely lips – achieving the WOW effect is possible thanks to treatments using hyaluronic acid.
Lips augmentation – what does the procedure look like?
The lips are first anesthetized with an anesthetic cream or lidocaine, so that pain during the procedure is not so noticeable. Then the doctor introduces hyaluronic acid into the red of the lips with a syringe with a thin needle or cannula. In order to evenly distribute the preparation, the doctor performs a gentle lip massage for a while immediately after the injection.
How to prepare for lips augmentation?
Lips augmentation and modeling with hyaluronic acid does not require any special preparation on the part of the patient. Before the preparation is administered, there is, of course, a medical consultation, during which the patient talks to the doctor about the course of the entire procedure, the expected effects and possible contraindications to the procedure. The doctor also selects the most appropriate preparation.
Recommendations after lips augmentation or modeling surgery
After the administration of hyaluronic acid, the effect is immediate. However, on the day of the procedure and for the next few days, there is visible swelling, which may make the lips seem too large at first. This is a completely natural phenomenon and is an integral part of any treatment with hyaluronic acid. Apart from swelling lasting several days, which can be alleviated, for example, with ice packs, patients are usually not accompanied by any other symptoms.
Lips augmentation – effects
In aesthetic medicine and cosmetology, hyaluronic acid is used primarily due to its ability to bind large amounts of water. By injecting the lips with hyaluronic acid, we can not only improve their contour and visibly enlarge them, but also firm, moisturize and strengthen the red lip. In addition, hyaluronic acid can also reduce wrinkles forming around the mouth (the so-called smoker’s wrinkles). All this without the artificial effect that patients are so afraid of.
