Lip injections
Full and curved lips are considered sensual and are often seen as an expression of beauty. However, the ageing process often causes lips to lose volume and contour. Many young people are also often dissatisfied with their lips, as many of them are naturally thin or lack competition.
In this case, lip injections with hyaluronic acid are a popular and non-surgical aesthetic treatment that is used to give the lips more volume, improve the lip contours and enhance the overall appearance of the lips.
Advantages of lip injections
- Emphasizing the lip contour
- Building up the lip volume
- Equalization of asymmetries
- Reduction of lip wrinkles
The treatment
Lip injections with hyaluronic acid begin with a consultation to discuss the patient's individual wishes. In particular, the desired lip volume and contour are determined. The lips are then cleaned and, if necessary, anaesthetized and the hyaluronic acid is injected precisely into the lips. The specialist can also compensate for asymmetrical lip shapes or straighten crooked lips. The results are immediately visible and most patients can quickly resume their normal activities. Occasionally, slight swelling may occur, but this subsides quickly.
