Over the years, the lips become thinner and lose their smooth surface. In addition, small wrinkles gather around the lips, emphasizing the woman's age. Modern aesthetic medicine is able to correct the volume of the lips and create ideal proportions through injections, as well as correct small wrinkles around the mouth.

This gives the face a natural harmony, the lips look fuller, sensual, and the smile – more attractive.

Puffy expressive female lips have always been the object of admiration for men   and the pride of their owners. The sensuality and attractiveness of plump lips attracts attention, and this fact has long been used by famous actresses – for example, the charming Marilyn Monroe gladly emphasized her quite voluminous lips with bright scarlet lipstick.

Today, for those women who consider their own lips not attractive enough and too thin, there are excellent opportunities to give them the desired volume, to make them full and sexy, not only due to bright lipstick. Modern innovative lip augmentation techniques allow you to achieve excellent results in modeling the desired shape of the lips, allowing women to feel beautiful.

Techniques to achieve lip augmentation

Today, a variety of procedures, preparations and techniques allow achieving a voluminous shape of the lips, but it is precisely in this variety that a certain risk lies: the procedure should be carried out only by an experienced cosmetologist who can choose such a drug with hyaluronic acid for lip augmentation that will not cause harm and will not lead to complications in a particular patient.

In my practice, I use Philosohi gel based on hyaluronic acid for lip augmentation procedures. Preparations of this class are commonly referred to as dermal fillers, or fillers. The principle of operation of such a filler preparation is very simple:

  • using microinjection gel containing  hyaluronic acid, injected into the lips;
  • hyaluronic acid attracts water molecules and holds them, providing a visual effect of plumpness and hydration.

Since hyaluronic acid for the human body – absolutely natural component compatible with its tissues, then the procedure is unlikely to cause harm. In addition, within about six months, the injected gel with hyaluronic acid is gradually absorbed, decomposing into water and carbon dioxide, which are excreted from the body naturally.

The volume of the lips is lost, they return to their original shape, and a new injection procedure is required to give them fullness.

Correction of wrinkles in the perioral region in combination with lip augmentation

In addition to lip augmentation and correction of their shape, a significant rejuvenating effect is provided by the elimination of purse-string wrinkles, which usually become the first manifestation of age-related changes in the perioral region.

To correct the area around the lips, it must be remembered that you will have to work with the circular muscle of the mouth, which is very mobile, and due to active facial expressions, wrinkles appear early here. When correcting such mimic wrinkles, threadlifting with V-line threads (Taimemachin) gives a good effect.

The placement of these monofilaments across the muscle axis allows to block facial expressions to a certain extent and obtain an indirect botulinum-like effect. Moreover, the natural features of the face from the setting of such threads do not change, and the result of the procedure is visible immediately, but the maximum effect can be assessed after about a month. In order to smooth the skin in the perioral zone as much as possible, you can work the skin directly on the purse-string wrinkles.

An additional advantage of threadlifting with V-line threads is that the procedure allows, in addition to eliminating purse-string wrinkles, to achieve contouring of the red border of the lips and obtain an excellent aesthetic effect from the procedure that will please the patient.

In addition, a well-defined lip contour can be obtained by setting  mono thread V-line, retreating at the same time 0.2 mm above the contour.

Installation of threads in the perioral region allows the doctor to achieve the following results:

  • lasting lifting effect,
  • smoothing purse-string wrinkles and softening marionette wrinkles,
  • clearly defined red border of the lips,
  • raised corners of the mouth,
  • correction of the fullness and shape of the lips,
  • reduction of manifestations of gravitational ptosis, in which the distance between the upper lip and the tip of the nose increases.

The advantages of using mesothreads for lifting the lips and the area around them is that they allow you to achieve an absolute natural appearance of the patient with a distinct effect of rejuvenation. The lifting effect persists for a long time without a withdrawal effect, and after about 180-240 days (depending on the characteristics of the patient's body), the threads dissolve, decompose into water and carbon dioxide, and are excreted from the body without harming it. But after them, a formed mesh-framework of its own collagen fibers remains, supporting the shape of the lips.

If the patient wants, in addition to correcting the handicap of the lips, to add volume to them, then two weeks after the installation of mesothreads, contour plastic surgery can be resorted to.

In addition to age-related changes in the perioral zone, patients often ask to correct the so-called "gingival" smile – when the upper gum is completely or partially exposed. Such a smile can be of the central and lateral type, it requires aesthetic correction with botulinum toxin preparations.

In the case of the central type of gingival smile, it is recommended to inject 1-2 units of botulinum toxin into the upper part of the nasolabial fold, with the lateral type, the same dose should be injected approximately at the border of the lower and middle third of the nasolabial fold.

In conclusion, I would like to say that, despite the chosen lip correction technique, it is necessary to achieve the most natural result, since the most beautiful smile – sincere  and natural.
