All women want to be beautiful. In their pursuit of perfection, they go on diets, get rid of excess weight, take care of their hair, seeking to improve their appearance, etc. Any representative of the fair sex considers lips to be not the last feature of her appearance. Plump and sensual, they are able to give the image of sexuality and attractiveness. However, not all nature endows with the desired facial features. Do not benefit the beauty of the lips and age-related adjustments. They become thinner and emphasize the growing signs of withering.
To preserve their youth and beauty, some women decide on aesthetic procedures. For example, permanent lip makeup. But there are also more drastic measures. Many beauty salons offer them today. Turning to specialists, you can increase the volume of the lips with hyaluronic acid.
A substance given to us by nature
Hyaluronic acid is a natural element that is produced by the human body. This substance is nothing butas a polysaccharide, which is found in large quantities in our tissues. Hyaluronic acid is the component that ensures the regenerative processes in the layers of the epidermis. In other words, this valuable element is needed to prevent dehydration and moisturize 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 the hyaluronic acid that is already in the body is gradually removed 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 molecules of water. Thanks to this, the natural component is able to:
- 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 volume and elasticity to tissues;
- neutralize free radicals.
Rejuvenator
We feel the lack of hyaluronic acid in the body with age, when the first wrinkles appear and the gradual withering of the skin begins. Is there any way out of this situation? Yes. It is necessary to replenish the body with the missingamount of 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 extracted from the ocular vitreous body of cows and bulls, as well as from rooster combs. However, such products caused various allergic reactions and complications when used.
Modern developments
Today, in addition to rejuvenating the skin of the face and body, hyaluronic acid is used for lips. Preparations containing it are produced at a professional level. But at the same time, not only animal tissues serve as raw materials for them. On the market of cosmetics and cosmetology, there are many drugs in which hyaluronic acid is obtained synthetically. Scientists have derived an analogue of a moisturizing substance from specially grown fungi and bacteria. Synthetic hyaluronic acid turned out to be 100% identical to natural. At the same time, 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 where hyaluronic acid is used for lips 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, in whichcontains 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 skin type. Hyaluronic acid saturates tissues with moisture, and also activates metabolic processes in them. It brings back vitality to the skin.
It is believed that the synthesized humidifier is almost identical in its properties to the natural one. 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 debatable. Hyaluronic acid for lips should be highly purified and of good quality. Only in this case it will be possible to say that the preparations based on it will be easily accepted by the body.
It is also worth remembering that an 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 natural components, then these substances are quickly excreted by the body. The effect of injections in this case will be short-lived. What can be done to keep lip augmentation with hyaluronic acid as long as possible? Injectable preparations in this case should have synthetic components such as silicone.
How does biorevitalization work?
If you want your lips withhyaluronic acid (see photo below) were attractive and natural, then contact only well-established beauty salons.
The first obligatory step in the procedure is to get expert advice. During such a conversation, indications for biorevitalization are determined. At the same time, possible contraindications are also identified. In addition, the desired shape and volume of the lips are specified, because they should look quite harmonious.
Injection with a preparation containing hyaluronic acid for the lips (see photo below) can be quite painful. In order to avoid discomfort, an anesthetic cream is applied to the injection sites. At the request of the patient, the doctor can make the procedure as comfortable as possible. To do this, he will administer an anesthetic injection similar to a dental one. The patient will not feel discomfort even if such preparations with hyaluronic acid as Ultra and Juvederm are administered to him. The fact is that they already contain an anesthetic.
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. With the help of a laser, it can also beapplied hyaluronic acid for lips. Reviews (photos before and after such a procedure, see below) experts highly appreciate this latest technique.
The fact is that the laser has only an external effect on the skin, without violating their integrity. At the same time, the patient does not experience even the slightest discomfort.
But this procedure has some drawbacks. So, 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 the composition of the administered preparations, in addition to hyaluronic acid, there are fillers that are not at all of natural or synthetic origin. The injections contain the patient's own fat cells.
This tissue is taken from a woman's buttocks, abdomen or thighs with a special syringe, which allows no incisions in 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 his state of he alth and body proportions. In addition, the doctor determines the donor zones, from which the adipose tissue is taken. For this procedure, a conventional syringe with a hollow tube (cannula) is used. Further, the resulting material is cleaned by special devices. As a result of this process, wholeviable fat cells.
At the last stage, the transplant itself is performed. The specialist injects the drug with a thin needle, filling all the area necessary to create the contour.
Indications for lip augmentation
As a rule, those women who strive to create an ideal appearance turn to specialists in beauty salons. And this procedure will help them achieve this, during which the doctor introduces hyaluronic acid into the lips. Reviews (see photo of the process below) about the duration of the effect suggest that the next time contouring will have to be done only after six months.
Indications for contacting beauty salons are different. Moreover, they want to get beautiful and plump lips after hyaluronic acid:
- Girls between the ages of 17 and 30 who strive to look attractive and sexy.
- Women from the age of 30, on the face of which the first signs of withering appear. The main purpose of visiting beauty salons for these patients is to correct the oval of the face and emphasize the contour of the lips.
- Women over 50. These patients seek to remove or reduce wrinkles, lift the corners of the mouth, and restore the appearance, contour and color of the lips.
A cosmetologist talks to a woman every time she treats her. Its main task is to correctly assess the situation, select 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 elastic. At the same time, those clients who have already gone through this procedure speak only positively about it. However, a specialist, taking into account certain contraindications, may refuse a woman who has applied to the salon. So, you can not increase the lips:
- women during pregnancy and breastfeeding;
- especially sensitive to hyaluronic acid;
- patients with bleeding disorders;
- clients with inflammation in the injection area.
For example, if there is herpes on the lips, and it is in the active stage, then after the introduction of hyaluronic acid, an unpredictable reaction may occur. It is undesirable to carry out contouring during the menstrual cycle. This fact will affect the duration of action of the drug administered.
Side effects
Sometimes patients complain that they had allergic reactions after they had a lip augmentation procedure with hyaluronic acid (see photo below).
However, the fault is not the polysaccharide itself. The whole point lies in the fillers that are present in the administered preparation. 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 the hyaluronic acid itself.
Recommendations from experts
The one who decidedimprove the contours of your lips, you 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 pass. It is only necessary not to visit swimming pools and saunas, baths and solariums for seven days after the correction. Hot baths are also prohibited during this period. In addition, for three to four days it is better to abandon any cosmetics. But even if everything goes well, a control examination by a cosmetologist must be carried out without fail. It is advisable to come to an appointment with a specialist 10-12 days after the procedure.
