The lip correction procedure at the moment can be safely called one of the most popular and sought-after procedures in aesthetic medicine. Almost every esthetician, first of all, wants to master the skills of performing this procedure, and seeks to acquire as much theoretical and practical knowledge as possible about the correct lip correction techniques. Olga Zabnenkova, candidate of medical sciences, dermatologist at MEDSI CDC, cosmetologist, professor of RUDN University, vice-president of the society of aesthetic medicine, certified trainer of Caregen company, member of the expert council on botulinum therapy Olga Zabnenkova spoke about the features of her author's lip correction technique especially for estet-portal.com. Read an exclusive interview with a specialist on the site right now.
Tell us about the features of your author's lip correction technique?
If we are talking about the author's lip correction technique, we must understand that it does not exist as such, and it implies the use of various methods. This is the fundamental difference.
I don't correct all lip variations with the same method, which results in all patients looking like the same model.
For each patient, as an author, I select the individual lip correction technique that is right for him.
Are there any peculiarities of the lip correction technique, depending on the age of the patient and whether he smokes?
This is a very interesting moment, because now our patients are much younger, and a huge number of young patients come to us. If earlier we thought that young patients – these are those who are 33-35 years old, now they are 22-25 years old. And these patients also have certain features in their work. With them, we try to work with drugs that are as soft as possible, which quickly disappear. These patients want a lot, right away, and they come back very quickly. Therefore, for such patients it is better to offer biorevitalizants – preparations that moisturize the lips, but quickly leave them. For age patients, the fundamental point – not only restoration of lip volume, but also work with a pouch. And very often patients come specifically for the correction of wrinkles in the area of nasolabial folds and wrinkles « puppets. And when such patients are offered lip correction – they are always afraid because they have seen the "beauty" that beauticians sometimes create. For such patients, a special technique was developed, I called it "tete-a-tete", which allows you to increase the red border, but without increasing the volume of the lips. And the lips become more saturated, more visually noticeable, but there is no peculiar way forward of the lips. When we work with patients who actively smoke, we always warn them that it is very important not only to use fillers, but also combined techniques, first of all, various options for laser resurfacing or peeling. And the fundamental point – lips with aging. They always do not require large volumes, that is, it is always the minimum volume.
Does the method and direction of drug administration affect the effectiveness of the chosen lip correction technique?In fact, very often I hear the opinion that no matter how the gel is injected into the lips, it will be evenly distributed in the tissues, and, in principle, it is enough just to inject it in a single mass. But it is precisely this introduction in a single mass that gives the feeling of sausages instead of lips.
p>Direction of the drug, route of administration, vectors – all this can significantly change the shape of the lips.
It is no coincidence that there is such a thing as "Parisian lips", when the drug is injected in linear vertical injections, and the effect of small narrow lips with a high red border is created. Therefore, the way you administer the drug, and even the direction of administration from top to bottom or from bottom to top, and from the side of the red border or from the side of the mucosa, is, in fact, of fundamental importance. But the question is not even in the techniques, although this is also an indicator of safety and efficiency. The question is what do you want to get in the end, so that there are not just lips on the face, but that they are in harmony with the overall structure of the face. Therefore, in some cases we start with lip correction, and in some cases we postpone this procedure as the latest method of correcting age-related changes.
