For a subtle result or a "wow" effect
A beautiful, well-defined mouth requires real expertise! With the injection techniques practised by our doctors, it is possible to plump up your lips while preserving the harmony of your face. You can choose a result that's as natural or as "spectacular" as you like!
Taking care of your lips has become an essential beauty routine. However, variations in temperature, make-up, smoking and skin ageing can damage the mucous membranes of the lips and leave them dry. Thanks to its hydrophilic properties, hyaluronic acid attracts water and helps to care for and beautify your lips by adding volume and/or moisture.
Benefits
- Volume : plump up your lips while respecting the harmony of the face, the design of the vermilion and the cupid's bow.
- Hydration : you can choose a more fluid hyaluronic acid to provide deep hydration to the mucous membranes of the lips without necessarily adding extra volume. Lips look smoother, fresher and slightly plumper. This treatment puts an end to dry skin and unsightly furrows on the lips.
- Lip contour : Hyaluronic acid can also be used to treat so-called "smokers' lines", which bother many people because they can make the lower face look older. The main causes are smoking, facial expressions and the natural ageing process of the skin. A little extra: lipstick will no longer smudge into those unsightly little furrows.
- Profiloplasty Lip injections help to balance the proportions of the face and create greater harmony between its different elements. For example, this technique is effective for correcting lips that are too thin or asymmetrical.
During the session
After an in-depth discussion to understand your expectations, your doctor will select the type of hyaluronic acid best suited to your needs, whether for a moisturising or filling effect, and whether you want a natural or more spectacular result. After carefully disinfecting the area concerned, the injection will be made either with a cannula or a needle.
To increase your comfort during the treatment, a local anaesthetic can be applied to the lips. In addition, the lip fillers used also contain an anaesthetic, ensuring maximum comfort during the procedure.
Results
The effects of HA treatment are generally visible as soon as the injection is given, but to fully appreciate the final results, it is necessary to wait 2 to 4 weeks before the swelling subsides and the product settles into place.
Good to know
As the lips are a particularly sensitive area, it is common for them to swell significantly in the 48 hours following treatment. Although this effect may seem impressive, it is completely normal and temporary.
