Lip modeling with tissue filler injections

Lip modeling

When forming the contour of the lips, they are thickened so that they appear fuller, more puffy, and wrinkles are reduced both on the lips and in area around them. In most cases lip modeling requires the use of tissue fillers, and less frequently – auto-fat injections.

  • Hyaluronic acid: TEOSYAL, MATRIDEX, RESTYLANE, FILORGA X-HA® VOLUME, FILORGA X-HA3® , JUVEDERM ULTRA);
  • Semi-synthetic tissue fillers (made from hyaluronic acid and acrylic hydrogel – DERMALIVE).

How do lip modeling with tissue fillers work?

Tissue fillers are injected in your lips:

  • They increase the volume of your lips, make them bigger and thicker, thus eradicating small wrinkles on the lips and around them.
  • They stimulate new collagen fiber creation.

Is the procedure safe ?

Lip modeling with tissue filler injections is a safe procedure. You can not only thicken your lips, but also correct their shape, mitigate it, or even totally cure some of the facial wrinkles (eg, this is particularly suitable for wrinkles, coming from the nose toward the corner of the lips), adjust the shape of the face (accentuate cheekbones or the chin, correct their shape).

Every year thousands of patients choose this treatment method, so it quickly became a very popular method to correct visible signs of aging.

All tissue fillers used in our clinic are of non-animal origin.

Hyaluronic acid fillers – consisting of hyaluronic acid (many of our body tissues contain it, e.g., cartilage, ligaments, etc..). They are more natural to our body, but are decomposed and removed from the body faster (the effect lasts for about 6-7 months, depending on the manufacturer).

Semi-synthetic tissue fillers (DERMADEEP) – consisting of hyaluronic acid and non-resorbant acrylic hydrogel particles. Due to this composition, the human body cannot decompose and remove the medicine as fast as the other types (the effect lasts up to several years).
