All women want to be beautiful. In their pursuit of excellence, they go on diets, getting rid of excess weight, take care of their hair, seeking to improve their appearance, etc. Not any woman who considers the fair sex also considers lips. Plump and sensual, they are able to give the image sexuality and attractiveness. However, far from all, nature endows with desirable features. Do not benefit the beauty of the lips and age-related adjustments. They become more subtle and emphasize the growing signs of wilting.
To preserve their youth and beauty, some women decide on aesthetic procedures. For example, permanent lip makeup. But there are more radical measures. Today they are offered by many beauty salons. Turning to specialists, you can increase the volume of lips with hyaluronic acid.
The substance given to us by nature
Hyaluronic acid is a natural element that is produced by the human body. This substance is nothing but a polysaccharide, which is found in large quantities in our tissues. Hyaluronic acid is the component that provides regenerative processes in the layers of the epidermis. In other words, this valuable element is needed to prevent dehydration and hydration of the skin. As a result, it eliminates the causes that lead to the aging of our body.
It is believed that hyaluronic acid in the right quantities is synthesized by the body. However, this happens only up to 25-30 years. Then the reproduction of this valuable substance begins to decline. And that hyaluronic acid, which is already in the body, is gradually eliminated from it in the process of decay.
Miraculous properties
Hyaluronic acid is produced by connective tissue cells. The main value of this substance lies in the fact that it perfectly retains moisture. So, just one molecule of amazing acid accumulates a thousand water molecules. Due to this, the natural component is capable of:
- transport moisture in the body;
- normalize the water balance in the epidermis;
- activate connective tissue, which increases the formation of collagen and elastin fibers;
- give the tissues volume and elasticity;
- neutralize free radicals.
Means for rejuvenation
We feel a lack of hyaluronic acid in our body with age, when the first wrinkles appear and a gradual withering of the skin begins. Is there any way out of this situation? Yes. It is necessary to replenish the body with the missing amount of a valuable element. However, it should be borne in mind that this can only be done from the outside. For this, various preparations with hyaluronic acid are produced.
It is worth saying that the beneficial properties of this polysaccharide have been known to people for a long time. In ancient times, it was mined from the optic vitreous of cows and bulls, as well as from cocks. However, similar means when used caused various allergic reactions and complications.
Modern developments
Today, in addition to rejuvenating the skin of the face and body, hyaluronic acid for the lips is used. Preparations containing it are produced at a professional level. But at the same time, not only animal tissues serve as raw materials for them. There are many products on the cosmetics and cosmetology market in which hyaluronic acid is synthetically prepared. Scientists have derived an analogue of a moisturizer from specially grown fungi and bacteria. Synthetic hyaluronic acid was 100% identical to natural. Moreover, it is absolutely safe for the human body.
The resulting hyaluronic acid is added to cosmetic ointments and creams. However, the use of such drugs is not so effective. The most popular methods that use lip hyaluronic acid are lipofilling and biorevitalization. Similar procedures are carried out in beauty salons.
Biorevitalization
This procedure is carried out in order to increase the volume of the lips. It consists of several injections of the drug, which contains hyaluronic acid. For lips, such injections are quite effective. And this is confirmed by numerous patient reviews. Lip correction with hyaluronic acid (see photo below) gives them the necessary volume and makes the contours more expressive.
Biorevitalization is applicable to almost any type of skin. Hyaluronic acid saturates tissues with moisture, and also activates metabolic processes in them. This restores skin vitality.
It is believed that the synthesized humidifier in its properties is almost identical to natural. And this affects the fact that hyaluronic acid for the lips is not rejected by the body and does not cause such allergic reactions as redness and swelling. However, this issue is controversial. Lip hyaluronic acid must have a high degree of purification and be of good quality. Only in this case it will be possible to say that the body will easily perceive the preparations based on it.
It is also worth remembering that the attractive lip shape made with hyaluronic acid will not stay with you for the rest of your life. If the basis of the drug is made up of natural components, then these substances are quickly excreted by the body. The effect of injections will be short-lived in this case. What can be done so that lip enlargement with hyaluronic acid lasts as long as possible ? Injection preparations should then have synthetic components, such as silicone.
How is biorevitalization?
If you want your lips with hyaluronic acid (see photo below) to be attractive and natural, then contact only well-established beauty salons.
The first mandatory step in the procedure is to obtain specialist advice. During such a conversation, indications for biorevitalization are determined. Then, possible contraindications are revealed. In addition, the desired shape and volume of the lips are stipulated, because they should look quite harmonious.
Injection with a drug containing lip hyaluronic acid (see photo below) can be quite painful. In order to avoid discomfort, anesthetic cream is applied to the injection site. At the request of the patient, the doctor can make the procedure as comfortable as possible. To do this, he will inject an anesthetic injection similar to a dental one. The patient will not feel discomfort even if he is given such drugs with hyaluronic acid as Ultra and Juverderm. The fact is that anesthetic is already in their composition.
After treating the lips with an antiseptic solution, the next step in the procedure is the introduction of hyaluronic acid itself. In this case, the doctor will use a syringe with the thinnest needle. The duration of biorevitalization is from 30 to 40 minutes.
Using a laser
Today, beauty salons perform not only injection biorevitalization. Laser can also be used to apply hyaluronic acid to the lips. Reviews (see photos before and after carrying out a similar procedure below) specialists highly appreciate this latest technique.
The fact is that the laser has only an external effect on the skin, without violating their integrity. Moreover, the patient is not even the slightest discomfort.
But a similar procedure has some drawbacks. Thus, laser biorevitalization does not make it possible to bring the drug in the tissues to the desired concentration and does not saturate the deep layers of the epidermis with hyaluronic acid.
Lipofilling
This procedure, like biorevitalization, is nothing more than an injection technique. However, in addition to hyaluronic acid, the composition of the injected preparations contains excipients of a non-natural or synthetic origin. The injection contains the patient's own fat cells.
This tissue is taken from the buttocks, abdomen or thighs of a woman with a special syringe, which allows not to make incisions on the tissue.
At its core, lipofilling is a small surgical operation, and therefore requires some preparation. At the initial stage, the specialist examines the patient, being interested in the state of his health and body proportions. In addition, the doctor determines the donor zones, from which he takes the adipose tissue. For this procedure, a regular syringe with a hollow tube (cannula) is used. Next, the resulting material is cleaned with special devices. As a result of this process, whole viable fat cells are separated.
At the last stage, the transplantation itself is performed. The specialist introduces the drug with a thin needle, filling all the area necessary to create a contour.
Indications for lip augmentation
As a rule, those women who seek to create the perfect appearance turn to specialists in beauty salons. And this will help them achieve the procedure during which the doctor injects hyaluronic acid into the lips. The reviews (see the photo of the process below) about the duration of the effect indicate that the next time the contour plastic will have to be done only after six months.
Indications for contacting beauty salons are different. Moreover, beautiful and plump lips after hyaluronic acid want to get:
- Girls aged 17 to 30 years who seek to look attractive and sexy.
- Women from the age of 30, on whose face the first signs of wilting are manifested. The main purpose of visiting cosmetic salons for these patients is to correct facial contours and emphasize the contour of the lips.
- Women who crossed the 50-year threshold. These patients seek to remove or reduce wrinkles, raise the corners of the mouth, and also restore the appearance, contour and color of the lips.
Each time a woman is consulted by a cosmetologist. His main task is to correctly assess the situation, choose the right drug, take into account all the individual characteristics of the patient and possible contraindications.
Who will be denied the procedure?
Of course, lips after hyaluronic acid look attractive and supple. At the same time, those clients who have already gone through this procedure respond only positively about it. However, a specialist, taking into account certain contraindications, may refuse a woman who has applied to a salon. So, you can not increase lips:
- women during pregnancy and breastfeeding;
- especially sensitive to hyaluronic acid;
- patients with bleeding disorders;
- clients with inflammatory processes in the injection area.
For example, if there is a cold sore on the lips, and it is in the active stage, then an unpredictable reaction may occur after the introduction of hyaluronic acid. It is undesirable to conduct contour plastic during the menstrual cycle. This fact will affect the duration of the administered drug.
Side effects
Sometimes patients complain that they had allergic reactions after they underwent a procedure that increases lips with hyaluronic acid (see photo below).
However, this is not due to the polysaccharide itself. The whole thing lies in the excipients that are present in the administered drug. Allergic reactions most often occur when the basis of the agent used is animal tissue. Side effects are also observed with a low degree of purification of hyaluronic acid itself.
Recommendations of specialists
Anyone who has decided to improve the contours of their lips should be prepared for the fact that after the procedure there will be a slight swelling, swelling and redness. But after a few days, all these symptoms will certainly disappear. It is only necessary within seven days after the correction not to visit the pools and saunas, baths and solariums. It is also forbidden during this period to take hot baths. In addition, for three to four days, it is better to abandon any cosmetics. But even if everything goes well, a follow-up examination by a cosmetologist should be carried out without fail. It is advisable to visit a specialist 10-12 days after the procedure.
