Lip Enhancement | Injectable Lip Rejuvenation
Lips become thinner as we age and we can also develop a mouth frown. Some individuals also develop vertical lines (especially smokers) above the upper lip. The cupid’s bow and philtrum also flatten out.
To get the best results, lip enhancement should involve the correction of all of the above. This achieves a soft, gentle and natural look. We avoid at Nitai Medical & Cosmetic Centre the very distasteful “Daffy Duck” lips.
A soft Dermal Filler with anaesthetic is used to minimise pain and swelling. Other forms of analgesia are also available if the patient is sensitive to pain.
This feels natural like the rest of the lip.
Some bruising can occur which is reduced with application of hirudoid ointment or arnica. This can be covered effectively with makeup.
The number of syringes of filler used will vary depending on the extent of damage seen.
The filler is expected to last 9 months in the lips.
Permanent Dermal Filler is avoided in the lips due to risk of scarring and nodule formulation.
