Lip augmentation is an aesthetic procedure that involves the use of fillers to enlarge and contour the lips. The main goal of lip augmentation is to achieve a fuller, fuller and more symmetrical lip shape.
Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring component of connective tissue in the human body, including the dermis. It is an important component of youthful-looking supple and elastic skin.
HA hydrates the skin and mucous membranes by retaining water, thus creating volume and ensuring a delicate and full appearance of the face. It's ideal for facial volumisation, whether you want to restore volume lost with age or want a fuller, more attractive look.
There is a wide range of fillets used in facial volumetry, the main differences being related to consistency, durability of the results obtained and the sensation felt in the injected areas. Dr. Adrian Racu works only with top brands such as Juvederm (VYCROSS range) and Teosyal (RHA range) and is able to recommend the most suitable type of filler to suit your desires.
Injection is performed using a very fine normal or cannula-type needle, and anaesthetic cream or intraoral anaesthesia (in the case of lip augmentation) is applied beforehand to minimise unpleasant stinging effects.
Results are maintained for up to 6-18 months, depending on the type of hyaluronic acid and each person's metabolism, but Dr. Racu recommends redoing the procedure before the acid wears off completely - to maintain consistent results.
