One of the most widespread interventions, namely the lip augmentation procedure with
hyaluronic acid, is favored by people who want voluminous and well-contoured
lips, but also to improve their general appearance.
As with skin, over time, lips start
to lose the substances that give them shape, structure and volume. For this reason, many people
turn to hyaluronic acid filler injections, in search for a more attractive smile.
The hyaluronic acid lip augmentation filler procedure is performed with local
anesthesia. This is applied for about 10-15 minutes, after which the area is degreased with alcohol
and the product is injected. This is followed by modeling massage. The amount of hyaluronic acid is
determined in consultation with the customer, depending on the desired volume, but also on the
initial state of the lips. The procedure takes about 30 minutes.
It is important to know
that you should stop taking anti-inflammatory and anticoagulant drugs, as well as vitamins E and C,
for a week before the operation. Moreover, 48 hours after the operation, aggressive movements in the
treated area are forbidden, except for light massage. In addition, you can't be exposed to
extreme temperatures for 7 days, and drinking alcohol is forbidden for the first 2 days.

The lip augmentation procedure is performed with local anesthesia. This area is highly innervated, hence it is necessary to apply an anesthetic cream or sometimes injectable treatments to significantly reduce the pain. Most of the time, patients only feel discomfort or pressure. Some types of hyaluronic acid also contain lidocaine, a painkiller that numbs the lips. On the other hand, you should be aware that you may feel pain later, as the skin is stretched. Symptoms can be mild to moderate, but it's important to know that they will go away in a few days.
If you want a lip augmentation procedure, you should keep in mind that the final result will be visible within 7 to 10 days. The appearance is maintained for about 6 months, but it also depends a lot on individual characteristics, such as lifestyle, smoking, sun exposure or indoor tanning. You should know that, as a rule, the first injection lasts the least time.
