Lip Fillers Results
Lip fillers, statistically, are the third most frequent cosmetic procedure after Botox Cosmetics and Laser hair removal. The procedure includes implementing HA fillers such as Juvederm and Restylane, Juvederm, or Revenesse.
The procedure
After a full consultation with the client, we discuss the benefits and risks of the cosmetic procedure. Moreover, we review the medical history and possible contraindications and provide full after-care instruction. We review the consent forms with the patient and the client sign them. An application of 2% lidocaine or a cold air chiller can relieve the pain. According to the filler thickness, the cosmetic injector implements the fillers using a 30-32G needle.
Case 1022
A client in her twenties, who had received lips fillers previously, approached us for better anatomical definition and volume in the upper and lower lips. They are injected into the vermilion border, philtrum column, and lip pillows. Afterward, the injection points apply Arnica cream and polyprotein with a cold massage.
