Lip and breast augmentation, facial tightening, and liposuction are just some of the tricks women resort to maintain a youthful appearance. We know that for years lips lose fullness due to lack of collagen and natural fats in our skin. Fortunately, there is a very simple solution. Once upon a time, women had to visit a plastic surgeon to get juicy, full lips. However, implant insertion was sometimes painful, and infections often occurred. Another drawback is that the lips looked completely unnatural, so many women decided to remove the implants. Fortunately, someone came up with the idea to inject hyaluronic acid instead of silicone inserts which is a natural ingredient in our body, and most importantly, they are biodegradable.
With the appearance of dermal fillers, many women have improved their physical appearance in just one painless visit to a professional. The results are immediately visible, and by making sure that it is biodegradable, it dissolves in our body over time, without harming it.
However, before you decide to take this step, it is important to consider a few things.
Research the doctor
This is probably one of the most important things. Before you decide on this step, do a little research to make sure you have found a doctor with a good reputation. It is best if you have a friend who has already done that, so she is satisfied with the result. Research on the Internet, look at the photos, check the qualifications of the doctor, because, unfortunately, there are many beauticians and non-professionals who have undergone short-term training and perform these, not so harmless procedures. Visit this site to make sure you are in good hands. You must have confidence in the person to whom you will entrust the care of your face.
Less is more
Coco Chanel was right when she said that less is more. Just as a little black dress is synonymous with elegance and looks more elegant than colorful dresses full of details, so discreet but beautiful lips attract more attention. So, the same rule applies to cosmetic surgery and other beauty treatments. Very often women exaggerate in their desire to have full, sensual lips, and in the end, the outcome is the opposite of what they expected. That is why it is important to consult an expert and determine how many fillers are enough in accordance to your face. After all, it’s always easier to add a little filler if you think they aren’t enlarged enough.
The results are instant
According to Dr Kien Ha, lip augmentation is performed with the help of microinjection and the process is painless because it is performed with the help of anesthetics. You will need to take about fifteen minutes for this. It is possible that a mild swelling will appear, which will completely disappear in 7-10 days. Hyaluronic acid will stay in your lips for 12-18 months, after which you will need to repeat the procedure. In case you do not want to, you will not have any consequences and your lips will look the same as before.
Who are the best candidates?
Fillers can be injected by anyone dissatisfied with the appearance and fullness of their lips, but we can say that the best results are achieved with women who have small and thin lips, women who are dissatisfied with their appearance, women over 50 who want to remove pronounced wrinkles, but also younger females who lose self-confidence for this very reason. We know that dissatisfaction with physical appearance affects the lack of self-confidence. So, if you think that you will do something good for yourself and love your body with this – go ahead!
What should you know before the procedure?
Before this procedure, avoid anything that could reduce your blood – herbal supplements, ibuprofen, aspirin, because the use of these drugs could encourage bruising. What is even more important is to talk to a doctor. It will best tell you the possible side effects and what to expect at what stage from injection to recovery. If you have any health problems, you must tell your doctor.
Side effects
Although allergies are minimal, this does not mean that they cannot occur. Contraindications often occur in pregnant and breastfeeding women, as well as in people who suffer from lupus and psoriasis. Small bumps may appear that will disappear on their own in ten days. However, if you feel pain and notice discoloration of the skin, consult a doctor immediately.
You can reverse the effect of fillers
For all those who eventually regret it and are not happy with their appearance after the doctor injects them with a filler, there is good news! If you want to restore the old look of your lips, enzymes that accelerate the breakdown of hyaluronic acid will help you with that. However, to get to this, you need to be patient for at least ten days after lip augmentation.
Recovery
We have already mentioned that recovery takes approximately 7-10 days. After that period, your lips will have a final look. What is recommended during this recovery period is to avoid too many cold and hot drinks, to avoid saunas and swimming pools, and it is not recommended to use chopsticks or lip glosses.
Be realistic about expectations
It is very important to know what you want to achieve, but it is even more important to be realistic in your wishes. Angelina Jolie’s lips are one of the most sensual in the world, but keep in mind that this effect cannot be achieved if your lips are naturally thin and small. On the contrary, the effect will be the opposite and not at all attractive. At the first treatment, it is best to apply a smaller amount to avoid the appearance of “duck lips”.
Conclusion
Whatever you’re doing on yourself, you’re doing it solely for yourself, not for your partner or because it’s popular and all your friends already have. Only in this way will you be truly satisfied with yourself.
