Do you suffer from a thin and narrow upper lip? With lip filler, the upper lip can be brought back into proportion with the lower lip.
The relationship between the upper and lower lips is important in creating the perfect lips. A narrow upper lip and fuller lower lip is common. Therefore, a little difference in volume between the upper and lower lips is natural. But too big a difference can be distracting. Filling the upper lip with lip fillers can correct this in a beautiful and natural way.
If you have a very narrow upper lip, with a very full lower lip, it is possible to have only the upper lip filled. However, it is important to always maintain a natural ratio between the upper and lower lip. If the difference between the upper and lower lip is not too large, the lower lip will probably be treated a little. This is to prevent the upper lip from becoming unnaturally large.
On average, lip fillers last about 9 to 12 months. Of course, the exact length of effect varies by type of filler, location of treated area and, of course, by person. Are you satisfied with the volume of your lips after your treatment? Then we recommend coming back between 6 and 9 months for a small touch-up. This way the result can be maintained beautifully.
First, you will discuss your wishes and needs with the cosmetic doctor. Then the anesthetic cream is applied to the lips. This cream needs time to settle in, so in the meantime the doctor will give you information about the lip filler and aftercare. When the lips are completely numb, the doctor will start the treatment. With injections through a thin needle, the filler is injected into the lips. The process of injecting often takes no longer than ten minutes. After that, the doctor will massage the lips and give massaging instructions. Pictures are always taken for your medical records. After this, the treatment is finished and you can enjoy the results!
