Hyaluronic Acid Lip Treatment

What is Hyaluronic Acid Lip Treatment?

Hyaluronic acid lip treatment involves injecting hyaluronic acid into the lips to enhance their volume and shape them into the desired form.

Since this procedure doesn’t require surgical incisions, it carries minimal risk and downtime, making it a very popular and convenient cosmetic treatment.

Our Commitment to Hyaluronic Acid Lip Treatment

The treatment is performed by a dental specialist, who carefully considers the alignment of your teeth and smile line to ensure a balanced result.
We pay close attention to the overall balance of your face, including the E-line, during the procedure.
We only use high-quality, safe hyaluronic acid products that have been carefully selected.
Anesthesia is administered from inside the oral cavity, a technique only dentists can perform. We ensure comfort even for patients sensitive to pain.
The lip design, injection sites, and the amount of hyaluronic acid injected are all meticulously planned in consultation with the patient before the procedure begins.
During the treatment, the injections are administered gradually and carefully, following the pre-established treatment plan, to achieve the best possible outcome.

Treatment Example of Adding Volume to the Upper Lip

BEFORE

AFTER

This is a case where hyaluronic acid was used to add volume to the upper lip.

Not only did the treatment enhance the appearance from the front, but it also gave the profile a more youthful and charming look.

Lip Hyaluronic Acid + Botox : A case of Anti-aging Care

BEFORE

AFTER

This case involved anti-aging treatment for the lower face using a combination of hyaluronic acid injections to the lips and Botox injections.

The M-shape of the lip was enhanced with hyaluronic acid. Botox injections to the masseter muscles resulted in a slimming effect and reduced nasolabial folds, while also helping to prevent teeth clenching.

Smile lift Botox (depressor anguli oris muscle) was used to lift the corners of the mouth and reduce the wrinkles around the mouth area.

Recommended as the Final Touch After Cosmetic Surgery

Many patients who come from overseas choose to undergo hyaluronic acid lip treatment or Botox injections as the final touch after their cosmetic surgery.

For those who desire an even more perfect facial appearance, hyaluronic acid lip treatment is highly recommended.

Recommended Lip Designs

Lip designs can be tailored to your preferences by adjusting the amount and location of the injections to achieve your desired look. Here are some of the most popular designs:

M-Shaped Lips

Before

After

Adding volume to the center of the upper lip and the areas next to the corners of the mouth creates an M-shape on the inner part of the upper lip, making the corners of the mouth appear lifted. This design is popular for its cute and charming look.

C-Curl Lips

By adding volume to the outer edges of the upper lip, the lips appear slightly curled upward, creating the effect of shortening the philtrum (the space between the upper lip and the nose).

Square Lips

This design involves adding volume to the inner part of the lower lip and shaping the outer edge of the lower lip into a square-like form.

Hyaluronic Acid Lip Treatment Procedure

Consultation

During the consultation, we will discuss your concerns and the desired outcome.

Based on your preferred design, we will create a detailed treatment plan, including the precise amount and locations for hyaluronic acid injections.

By thoroughly consulting with the dental specialist performing the procedure, you can ensure that the injection sites and amounts are chosen to achieve your ideal lip appearance.

Oral Anesthesia

By administering local anesthesia inside the mouth, the hyaluronic acid injections can be performed with minimal pain.

Hyaluronic Acid Injection

According to your preferences and the treatment plan, the hyaluronic acid is carefully injected. You will also have the opportunity to check the results in a mirror before the procedure is completed.

Post-Injection Care Instructions

It is possible to experience temporary redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site. On the day of the procedure, please avoid intense exercise, alcohol consumption, and long baths. Additionally, refrain from touching the injection area unnecessarily.

Effectiveness and Duration

The effects are immediate, and you can start noticing them right after the injection. The duration of the effects varies depending on the amount injected and the type of product used, typically lasting between 3 months to 1 year.

Aftercare

A few days after the procedure, the swelling will subside. If you wish to have additional injections at that stage, we can accommodate your request.

Hyaluronic acid is purchased in single units, and if there is any remaining product after the initial injection, you can receive a touch-up within two weeks at no extra cost, using the leftover amount.

If you wish to have additional injections beyond the initial two-week period or if you require more than the remaining amount, you will need to purchase another unit of hyaluronic acid for the procedure.
