Our society is rapidly evolving
and as a result, it has set new beauty standards that place more and more
emphasis on the individual’s external appearance. This has resulted in the
emergence of new aesthetic procedure that pops up every other day.
From the surgical to
non-surgical aesthetic procedures, it can be said without argument that there
is an aesthetic solution for every aesthetic woe. This has
attracted masses of people towards self-enhancement by undergoing various
beauty procedures in order to improve their self-confidence or simply to
satisfy their curiosity.
One such aesthetic
procedure that has gained immense popularity in the recent years if lip fillers
enhancement. It involves the injections of filler substance into the lips to
enhance the definition and volume of lips.
There are two primary products
that are injected into the lips to achieve temporary non-surgical
lip enhancement. These include the collagen fillers and hyaluronic acid
dermal fillers.
Hyaluronic acid naturally
exists in our bodies and is biodegradable when injected into the lips.
Nowadays, hyaluronic acid fillers are commonly used for non-surgical lip
augmentation treatment to create fuller, plump and more defined lips with more
volume.
Collagen is also used as lip
filler. It is a major element of skin which tightens and firms it. For the
purpose of lip enhancement, a purified form of collagen is used that is
extracted from cattle. However, the use of collagen fillers has become limited
and largely replaced by hyaluronic acid fillers.
It is a common perception of
people that lip enhancement looks fake or artificial but this is not always the
case, if it is done gradually it enhances the natural shape of the lips.
It is very important for the
individual to discuss the details and lip area which requires enhancement, to
achieve the desired effect. This should be done with a mutual agreement of the
clinician and the client. For some people its fuller set of lips with lots of
volume and definition while for others it may be only a slight enhancement of
the natural lip definition.
The temporary lip enhancement
using hyaluronic acid fillers last for about 6-12 months on average. After this
period, the product gradually degrades and wears off. In order to maintain the
fuller appearance of lips, the client needs to have repeat fillers treatment.
however, if someone does not want to have repeat lip filler enhancement
treatment, they can choose to stop it without any complications and the lips
would return back to their original natural appearance as they were prior to
lip filler procedure.
Although lip fillers
enhancement is an aesthetic procedure, it still falls into the category of
medical procedures. There are some common reactions that occurs following lip
injections including redness, swelling and at times bruising. The injected area
may also become sore and tender after the treatment. These are temporary and
mild reactions and usually, resolve in few days after you have the non-surgical
lip enhancement treatment.
In rare cases, there can be
allergic reactions and a risk of infection so the treatment should always be
done on clean environment using sterilised equipment. Choose the treatment from
a clinician who has deep understanding of the facial anatomy to prevent any
complications.
