Biorevitalization of lips – intense hydration and rejuvenation (2 types)

Lip biorevitalization is a popular injection technique necessary to get rid of fine wrinkles and other aesthetic defects in the perioral area.

Throughout human life, it is the lips that are the most mobile part of the face. When expressing any emotions, one way or another, the muscles around the mouth are involved.

In this area, the skin is especially thin, unprotected from negative external factors, so it quickly fades, loses elasticity and moisture. But biorevitalization can help improve the appearance of this area.

Biorevitalization of lips (the essence of the method)

The procedure for rejuvenating the lip area effectively restores the structure of the skin, replenishes the lack of moisture, and restores protective mechanisms.

Biorevitalization rejuvenates, tones, reduces the severity of wrinkles, and improves appearance.

The essence of the technique is microinjections of compounds made on the basis of hyaluronic acid of non-animal origin.

The concentration of hyaluronate in the preparations is several times higher compared to the tissues of the human body. After entering the lips, the molecules of the substance break down into particles, from which the cells form their own hyaluronic acid.

With age, the natural synthesis of hyaluronate decreases greatly, so the main beneficial property is the activation of the formation of its own hyaluronic acid.

As a result, a substitution process takes place: the synthetic drug is replaced by a natural one.

Without hyaluronate, cell reproduction and normal functioning of connective and nerve tissues are impossible. The substance is part of the epidermis, joint fluid, and saliva.

Its most important property is the ability to attract many water molecules. When the concentration of hyaluronic acid decreases, the skin suffers from a lack of moisture. This leads to a slowdown in cell division and the appearance of signs of aging.

Biorevitalization of lips is an effective procedure aimed at restoring the natural synthesis of hyalurunate.

The introduction of drugs increases the level of hydration and stimulates tissue restoration. Injections provide a powerful rejuvenating effect, increase skin density and smooth out wrinkles.

Food and comfort

Moisturizing and soothing rich lip cream Arctic Hydra Care, Lumene

• Promises: to nourish, restore, prevent dehydration and dryness.
• Contains: vegetable oils of blueberry and oat seeds, betaine and northern seaweed.

If your lips are chapped, dry, or you bit them out of nerves, you are unlikely to appreciate the volume of the cream due to the cayenne pepper or menthol in the composition.

But what about comfort and protection? But at the same time without a sticky pancake on the lips, right? Lumene seems to have gone to great lengths to create a product that meets these exact requirements. And they did it :)

A small tube is convenient to throw into your cosmetic bag. The cream nourishes, protects, does not sting, smells neutral and has no taste. The primer, however, is not very good - you must first let the product absorb, or better yet, massage it in with your finger for speed.

By the way, this tube was eventually taken away from me by a child. Sometimes his lips get cracked from dryness, but he hasn’t been able to persuade him to smear himself with all sorts of hygiene products (even those specially-designed for tough guys, like Facial Fuel No-Shine Moisturizing Lip Balm, Kiehl’s ) before. And this one suited him perfectly.

Suitable drugs (4 best options)

To carry out the procedure, you can use only high-quality compounds that were manufactured in compliance with accepted standards and stored correctly.

The list of popular drugs includes:

1. Hyalrepair. Russian product, enriched with vitamins and polyacids, with a density of 2 mg/ml. Corrects contours and provides a lifting effect. Will not help patients with asymmetry.

Lip care and moisturizing

Lip care routine: In the morning, apply a nourishing anti-wrinkle product to the lip contour, and then, if lips are dry, apply a balm to moisturize them before applying lipstick. In very cold or very hot weather, use a balm to protect your lips from the negative effects of external factors. If your lips are a little lacking in moisture or if you want to give them volume, use a honey-based restorative balm . To prolong the effect of the balm, apply it before bed. In the morning, the skin of your lips will be well moisturized, and they themselves will look more voluminous!

Question answer

Experts recommend using injections to prevent premature aging after 35 years. Younger women are also not prohibited from undergoing the procedure if indicated.

One session takes about 30 minutes. The laser procedure will take no more than 40 minutes.

One course consists of 3–4 sessions, with short breaks between them. The number of courses is determined individually, as it depends on the characteristics of the skin and the age of the client. In the photo on the Internet you can see the pronounced result after a course of lip biorevitalization.

What result can I expect after the procedure?

Biorevitalization of the lips restores the elasticity of the lips, their color becomes richer and brighter, the contour is more pronounced. Purse-string wrinkles are smoothed out, lips look smoother and more moisturized. Patients with problematic skin around the lips (manifestations of eczema, dermatitis) will get rid of irritation and peeling. Frequent infections such as herpes will also cease to bother you. The procedure restores damaged skin and is especially recommended after severe temperature changes (trips to the sea or mountains) and after sunburn.

Methodology (2 methods)

Today the procedure can be carried out in two ways:

1. Injectable. The most effective option, since nutritional components are delivered to the deep layers of the epidermis. Disadvantage: discomfort, pain.
2. Injection-free. The medicinal composition enters the skin when exposed to laser radiation. The manipulations do not cause discomfort, but do not bring such pronounced results as injections.

Let's consider the features of both methods.

Injection method (5 stages)

The procedure is carried out using the thinnest needle. Sometimes a cannula, a tube with a small diameter, is used to administer the drug.

To change the contours, injections are made intradermally, to add volume - under the mucous membrane of the lips.

Scheme:

1. At the first visit, the cosmetologist conducts an examination and identifies any contraindications. Taking into account the patient’s wishes, existing problems are identified and a method for solving them is selected. The cost of biorevitalization is negotiated, and the client must sign documents confirming his consent to the procedure.
2. The skin is cleansed of impurities and decorative cosmetics.
3. A cream with an anesthetic effect is applied to the border of the lips, and a film is placed on top. After 30 minutes, the remaining anesthetic is removed and the skin is wiped with an antiseptic.
4. Punctures can be created along the lip line at regular intervals, at the border of wet and dry mucosa. To increase the volume, many targeted injections will be required.
5. After administering the drug, the cosmetologist again disinfects the treated area. To distribute the components evenly, light massage movements are performed. Ice cubes are applied to reduce bruising and swelling.

Laser technique (5 steps)

This is done as follows:

1. The perioral area is also cleaned, then wiped with a disinfectant composition.
2. Pulsed laser radiation is directed onto the lips to soften the tissue and open transport channels through which hyaluronic acid penetrates the skin.
3. A gel-like preparation containing useful substances is applied. After this, infrared radiation is used again.
4. Through thermal action, the gel is quickly absorbed into the deep layers of the skin. At the same time, skin tightening and wrinkles are smoothed out.
5. After completion, the lips are wiped with an antiseptic.

How is the procedure done?

The procedure is performed under local anesthesia. There are two options for delivering hyaluronic acid to the lips - injection and laser.

The injection method is considered preferable and more effective, since it guarantees delivery of the drug to the necessary layers of the skin.

The laser method allows the drug to be delivered using a low-frequency laser radiation device. The procedure, as in the case of injections, lasts 30-40 minutes.

Before the procedure, the doctor removes makeup and disinfects the lip area. Injections are made with a very thin needle, and sometimes flexible cannulas are used to administer the drug. For the lip area, use a preparation with a volume of 0.5 - 0.6 ml. For a lasting long-term effect, it is recommended to carry out two to five procedures with a break of 2-3 weeks. The number of procedures and the interval between them, as well as the specific drug, is determined by the doctor, based on the condition of the patient’s skin, his age and task. At the end of the procedure, the doctor again disinfects the injection area and may massage it a little for better distribution of the drug.

Rehabilitation period

After the procedure, it will take some time for tissue restoration. The consequences of the injection technique will be especially pronounced: redness, bruising, and swelling remain in the perioral area.

Rehabilitation after injections takes about 14 days, after laser – 7 days.

To speed up skin healing and prevent complications, you must follow several rules:

• during the first 24 hours after the manipulations, you should not use cosmetics or touch the treated area without the need: apply pressure, massage, rub;
• avoid temperature changes, do not drink too hot or cold drinks and food;
• it is recommended to quit smoking;
• in the first 2–3 days, alcoholic drinks and drugs that thin the blood are prohibited;
• Replace care products with anti-inflammatory ones;
• for 10 days you cannot sunbathe in a solarium or take a steam bath;
• protect your skin from ultraviolet rays, use suitable products before going outside;
• In the first 14 days after the procedure, you should not be exposed to intense physical activity.

Reviews of biorevitalization of lips with hyaluronic acid indicate the high effectiveness of the technique. If you follow the recommendations, rehabilitation takes place without unnecessary difficulties, and your attractive appearance will soon return.

How to recontour your lips with hyaluronic acid

The procedure involves the introduction by a specialist of the composition through a special needle. There are different techniques for this process. The choice of method depends on the desired result and on the specific drug, since gels with hyaluronate come in different densities. Cosmetologists use different fillers. During the consultation, they select the best option based on your desires and the individual characteristics of your body. Drugs used in specialized clinics must be tried and tested.

Preparations for lip contouring with hyaluronic acid:

• Juvederm
• Sudzhiderm (Surgiderm)
• Perlane
• Restylane
• Belotero

By the way, the high cost of the gel often does not matter. The point is not in price, but in quality, reliability and the right composition that is right for you. Manufacturers who care about their reputation make sure to monitor the quality of the formulations they offer, carefully clean them of excess, and think about our health.

During a lip contour correction session, the doctor carefully makes injections under the skin according to the shape of the mouth and thus distributes the hyaluronate in the right places. This allows you to correct even the innate features of your appearance. To help the specialist achieve the desired effect, show him a photograph of an example of the lips you would like to get after the procedure. The skillful work of a cosmetologist can be equated to art. The main task of the cosmetologist is to introduce the composition carefully, trying to minimize traces of injections and make them along the required line. Correcting the contour of the lips without increasing the shape allows you to get rid of scars and restore tone and brightness to the lips. For women over 45 years old, this is an additional opportunity to get rid of wrinkles and nasolabial folds.

Depending on your desire, the composition can fill the contour of the lips and create a semblance of artificial swelling; the skin will be pleasantly stretched, taking the desired shape. A series of vertical injections is gentle on your natural facial expressions and will not affect it. Most often, the upper lip is enlarged, since the lower lip naturally has greater volume. Some do contouring of both lips. Photos in many clinics demonstrate that pumping only the lower lip with hyaluronate is a very rare procedure; it is used when correction of the consequences of an oral injury is required or to get rid of defects.

Side effects

Every patient who goes for lip biorevitalization with preparations containing hyaluronic acid hopes to see the same excellent result as in the before and after photo.

That is, in the mirror he should see the proportions of the lips, harmonious in relation to each other, as well as to other facial features.

Many people are afraid of the so-called “duck lips effect”, which looks unsightly and worsens their appearance. But after biorevitalization, this rarely happens, since after the procedure the volume of the lips does not change much.

In the first days after the session, the following negative manifestations are observed:

• pain at the puncture sites;
• the formation of slight swelling;
• minor hemorrhages and bruises;
• small rash on the skin;
• redness in the treated area;
• infection and inflammation - in the most serious situations.

After the injection procedure, small nodules may appear under the skin. Papules are a natural occurrence when hyaluronate is injected, so there is no need to worry about this.

Usually within 3 days the seals completely dissolve. If this does not happen, you need to contact a specialist. Irritation disappears after 5 days.

Redness occurs due to stress to which the skin is exposed at the time of punctures. This is how she reacts to such manipulations.

This phenomenon, although temporary, causes discomfort and a desire to quickly return to the previous state. To relieve redness, you can use the following remedies:

1. Ice. The pieces are applied to the surface of the lips; it is permissible to perform the most gentle massage. The steps can be repeated several times a day.
2. Medicines. Only a doctor has the right to prescribe suitable medications with anti-inflammatory effects. Usually this is Traumeel or Troxevasin.

In reviews of lip biorevitalization, patients say that all negative reactions disappear if the requirements of the rehabilitation period are met. Serious consequences arise if contraindications are not observed.

Types (techniques) of lip contouring with hyaluronic acid

There are various injection techniques in cosmetology, their choice depends on the type of procedure and area. The most commonly used are linear-retrograde, fan-shaped, point-by-point injection of the composition, and the mesh technique. To generally improve the tone of the lips and the skin around them, the last method of making injections is used, creating a dotted pattern of parallel and perpendicular lines, reminiscent of a grid. In case of lip augmentation on the opposite side, injections are made in a fan pattern. This type of technique additionally corrects nasolabial folds, lifts the corners of the mouth and makes the lips fuller. It gets its name from the pattern of the injections, which looks like an open fan.

The angle of direction of the needle when injecting fillers is also of great importance. In some cases, it is inserted under the skin at an angle or parallel to the skin. The amount of filler injected is determined individually; a lot depends on its viscosity. Injection lip contouring is based on a simple rule: the greater the level of correction required, the more composition is injected under the skin. At the same time, they are guided by the natural shape of the patient’s lips. When you need to greatly increase the volume, the amount of gel can reach 2.5-3 milliliters. If you need to add a slight enlarged shape to natural thin lips, then half as many fillers are injected. It is important not to overdo it and you should listen to the opinion of a specialist. A clear mouth contour and natural-looking swelling will add charm to your beauty.
