Lip contouring treatments can be performed medically or non-medically. In this article, we explore both types of lip enhancement and contouring treatments in depth.

These procedures are performed to enhance the appearance of the lips, giving them a more defined, voluminous, and balanced shape. Lip augmentation and contouring are popular for achieving fuller, more attractive lips.

Lip contouring is typically done by injecting hyaluronic acid, a dermal filler substance, into the lips to increase their volume. The most commonly used filler for lip enhancement and contouring is hyaluronic acid.

Hyaluronic acid is one of the most widely used fillers for lip augmentation and shaping in our aesthetic medicine clinic. It is safe, reversible, and provides natural-looking results.

Hyaluronic acid lip contouring focuses on defining and improving the shape of the lips without necessarily increasing their volume. This treatment involves injecting hyaluronic acid fillers along the lip borders to refine and enhance their shape.

The duration of the results depends on the type of filler used. Hyaluronic acid fillers generally last between 4 to 6 months, and in some cases up to 12 months, after which touch-ups may be needed.

Permanent fillers may last longer but carry a higher risk of side effects and are not recommended.

Possible side effects: Common side effects include temporary swelling, redness, and bruising.
It is important to follow the post-treatment care instructions provided by the professional to minimize these effects.
