lip injections

lip injections

Full and curved lips are considered sensual and are often seen as an expression of beauty. However, the aging process often causes the lips to lose volume and contour. Many young people are also often dissatisfied with their lips, as many of them are naturally thin or have little competition.
Lip injections with hyaluronic acid are a popular, non-surgical aesthetic treatment that is used to add volume to the lips, improve lip contours and enhance the overall appearance of the lips.

The treatment

A lip injection with hyaluronic acid begins with a consultation to discuss the patient's individual wishes. The main question is the desired lip volume and contour. The lips are then cleaned and anesthetized if necessary and the hyaluronic acid is injected precisely into the lips. The specialist can also even out asymmetrical lip shapes or straighten crooked lips. The results are immediately visible and most patients can quickly return to their normal activities. Occasionally, slight swelling may occur, but this quickly subsides.
