WHAT IS LIP FILLER?
The application of hyaluronic acid-containing fillers to the lip area by injection is called lip filler. Filling application time is stated as approximately 15 minutes. Local anesthesia is used in the procedure. In this way, the feeling of pain is reduced as much as possible. Additionally, you can return to daily life immediately after the procedure. The permanence period of hyaluronic acid lip fillers varies. Depending on the person's metabolism and the product used, permanence can be achieved for an average of 9-12 months.
WHAT IS THE PURPOSE FOR LIP FILLERS?
Lip fillers can be applied to look more beautiful, younger, more interesting or if there is a need for medical treatment. Not everyone may be born with the lips they dream of when they look in the mirror. But everyone can achieve their dreams with lip fillers, to a certain extent. Before this procedure, a detailed physical examination is performed. The person should be examined in detail, informed about possible complaints, and a decision should be made with the help of a doctor.
HOW CAN LIP FILLER CHANGE?
Many different results can be achieved with lip filling.
• Lip volume can be increased. Thus, people can have fuller and younger lips instead of lips that are naturally small or lose volume and moisture with age.
• Lip contour becomes clear. With age, especially in smokers, there may be ambiguity in the lip boundaries. With lip filling applications, lip borders (frame) can be made sharper and more distinct. Thus, people can have a younger and more attractive appearance.
• The lips are shaped. Especially in the corners of the lips, unhappy facial expressions due to sagging or deformities occur when the colored part of the lips turns inward. These defects can be corrected with filling applications.
• The ratio of the lips to each other is corrected. The upper lips have a smaller volume than the lower lips. However, physicians can evaluate patients' faces holistically and create personalized lip ratios. Targeted ratios can be achieved with filling applications.
• The appearance of the lips can be improved. Anatomically, the upper lip is located in front of the lower lip. With lip filler, the ideal appearance can be achieved by giving both volume and shape to the lips.
