What are Lip Fillers? To Whom Can It Be Applied?
Lips have an important place in aesthetic appearance and are the symbol of an attractive face. So much so that many celebrities have come to the fore with their full and attractive lips, and some have been a source of inspiration for lip augmentation. While the volume and contours of the lips are more pronounced at young ages, with age, the lip volume becomes thinner, shrinks, its contours become irregular and the lips move downwards. In some people, the lips are genetically thin. Lip augmentation is often applied to younger people to shape and volumize lips, and to older people to regain the lost volume of the lips over time. Today, dermal fillers containing hyaluronic acid are most commonly preferred. Hyaluronic acid is a constituent that is already present in the connective tissues of our body and begins to decline from the age of 20s. It has a water holding capacity of 1000 times of its own weight. Therefore, after the dermal fillers procedure, the lips gain a more lively, moist and attractive appearance. It also reduces lip dryness as it provides moisture support.
How is Lip Filler Procedure Done?
Lip Filler procedure begins with the physician’s detailed evaluation of the lip shape, lip contour, and the anatomical relationship of the lip with other facial tissues (nose, chin, etc.). Each individual has their own lip structure and curvature. It is possible to make lip augmentation without disturbing the naturalness and it has become more trendy recently. Before the procedure, the lips are numbed by applying anesthetic cream. The dermal filler is injected into the lower layers of the lip with fine needles. The procedure takes 15-20 minutes and the person can return to his/her social life after the procedure. Usually, a control session is recommended 2 weeks after the procedure.
What Should Be Paid Attention to After the Lip Filler Procedure?
Swelling, redness, bruising, and tenderness can be seen after lip filler procedures, and this situation passes within 2-3 days. Make-up should not be applied to this area for 24 hours after the procedure. During the first 3 days, contact with hot and cold substances should be avoided. Hot environments such as baths, saunas and jacuzzis should be avoided for 1 week.
How Long Does Lip Filler Last?
The dermal filler is absorbed by the body over time. The permanence of the dermal filler is about 8-12 months. This period may vary depending on the concentration of the dermal filler used, the skin structure of the person and environmental conditions (smoking etc.). In addition, if lip augmentation is done regularly, the permanence of the filler gradually increases as the fibroblast cells in the body will also be stimulated and produce hyaluronic acid themselves.
Is Lip Filler Procedure Safe?
Hyaluronic acid is a constituent which is naturally found in our body tissues. Dermal fillers containing hyaluronic acid are highly compatible with body tissues and the risk of allergic reaction is very rare. Lip augmentation can be applied by physicians who are trained in this field, and who have sufficient knowledge and experience.
Can Men Have Lip Fillers, Too?
Contrary to popular belief, lips also have an important place in male facial appearance. With age, there is a loss of volume on the lips, regardless of gender. For this reason, men also prefer lip augmentation in the last period of time. The procedure can be done with natural touches, slightly different from women’s, without disturbing the masculine appearance of the face. As a result, in line with the developing technology and the frequent use of social media, aesthetic procedures have gained great importance and in parallel, lip augmentation has taken its place among the frequently applied aesthetic procedures.
