Lip contouring with hyaluronic acid. Recommendations and contraindications

Lip augmentation with filler occurs by introducing hyaluronic acid-based gels under the skin. As a result, the appearance of the skin improves, firmness and elasticity increases, and tissue regeneration processes are stimulated. Indications for lip contouring with fillers:

• insufficient volume by nature or as a result of age-related changes;
• pronounced asymmetry;
• drooping corners of the mouth;
• lack of a clear lip contour.

It is not recommended to perform lip augmentation with hyaluronic acid in the presence of autoimmune, viral, bacterial diseases, inflammation and rashes in the injection area, as well as during pregnancy, lactation, and exacerbation of chronic diseases. Hyaluronic acid is a substance of natural origin, produced by the human body, and therefore does not cause allergic reactions.

Injection methods of cheiloplasty

• Microinjections. Piercing along the contour of the mouth to a slight depth. Used for easy correction.
• Linear injections. The microneedle penetrates quite deeply under the skin.
• Tracing technique. It involves a mix of the two previous methods.
• Cheiloplasty "Paris". Assumes vertical placement of the needle. The injection proceeds according to the following scheme: the first injection is administered 0.4 mm from the corner, then moved in increments of 2 mm. Cheiloplasty “Paris” is completed at the top point at a distance of 4 mm from the lip.
• French technology. Its purpose is not so much to fill as to thicken aging lips. The punctures are made in the transverse direction and try to distribute the drug evenly.

Operation

As a rule, plastic surgery on the lips is performed under local anesthesia, but general anesthesia is also possible if desired. The duration of the procedure is up to two hours.

First, markings are applied to the skin in accordance with the problem and the chosen method for solving it, according to which the incisions are made. The lips are then shaped to the desired shape and absorbable sutures are placed at the edges of the incisions.

Immediately after the procedure, the doctor makes a bandage and applies ice to reduce pain and swelling.

How does the procedure work?

Lip augmentation with hyaluronic acid is performed on an outpatient basis, does not require preliminary preparation, and takes up to 40 minutes. After applying the anesthetic cream, the doctor, using a disposable syringe with a microneedle, injects the drug into the lips and distributes it with massage movements. The effect is noticeable immediately and lasts for 6-13 months - full, moist, clearly defined lips. In some cases, there is slight swelling in the correction area, which goes away within 1-2 days.

Correction of the shape (contour) of the lips - lips with a “bow”.

The raised cupid's bow and the elongation of the red border in the columns are responsible for the colorful shape of the lips.

It often happens that there is volume in the lips, but these elements are not expressed; in this case, working with mixed techniques allows you to give shape and relief to the upper lip.

Lip shape correction also includes the technique of superficial injections, when they try to make the lip profile flat (this lip shape has many names: “puff lips”, “flat lips”, and even “Russian lips”).

This technique is based on maximizing the deviation of the upper lip (with insufficient projection) and separating the upper lip to maximize the flatness of the nipple.

The problem with this technique is that the desired flatness of the lip arch is maintained only the first time, after which the lips “round” and lose their original shape, while remaining larger than they were before the correction.

The volume of fillers is injected during one visit - about 1 ml of the drug.

Which drug is best for lip contouring?

Features of the use and composition of the drugs:

• Juvederm lip augmentation. The presence of lidocaine in the composition completely eliminates discomfort during the procedure;
• Princess volume lip augmentation. Suitable for young skin (18-30 years old);
• Amaline lip augmentation. Favorable price, high degree of purification of the drug, proven quality - used by cosmetologists since 2004.

Features of the French lip shape

It is this lip shape that is characteristic of many famous French women, such as Brigitte Bardot, Vanessa Paradis and many others. This is how they looked without any correction. In the modern world, nothing prevents you from going and doing procedures that can make your lips not only better, but also more similar to your favorite actresses or singers.

One of the well-known methods of lip augmentation, which gives not only maximum naturalness, but also volume, is the Parisian technique. This method of lip augmentation is associated with France, but it has gained popularity everywhere. Many girls think about this technique. The final shape of the lips differs from those obtained after choosing other products. After the procedure of the French technique of lip augmentation, they have a natural shape. They look innocent and have rounded features. Parisian lips do not create a pronounced “pumped up” effect. They are rounded into an oval, becoming swollen, but at the same time they are aesthetic.

The upper lip looks slightly raised, a little plump, but not huge or swollen. The lower lip should match the shape of the upper. The face becomes fresh, youthful and slightly dreamy. After correction, it is impossible to distinguish lips from their natural shape. If the shape of the mouth is almost flawless, then the cosmetologist only has to correct the upper lip. The Parisian lip augmentation technique is popular due to its minimal investment and completion of the operation in a short time.

Plastic surgery of the labia minora

By making an appointment and coming for a consultation with a specialist from our center, you can discuss the problem that concerns you, find out the most optimal way to solve it, and clarify the details. If excess skin and tissue extends to the clitoral area, intimate labiaplasty may be performed in combination with excision of the clitoral hood.

Sometimes girls who want to have labia minora plastic surgery in Moscow ask the following question on forums or online consultations: “Do city clinics or district antenatal clinics provide similar services?” The answer, of course, will be negative - this operation is not included in the list of free guaranteed services provided to residents under the compulsory medical insurance policy. Therefore, antenatal clinics and clinics have neither equipment, nor specialists, nor the ability to carry out such aesthetic manipulations.

Technical information

Below we will tell you about the basic techniques of how to perform surgery on the labia. However, often there is not one problem, but several aesthetic deviations of the intimate organs, which determines the desire of patients to undergo a complex procedure on the external genitalia. Therefore, the clinic’s specialists can offer you a number of services. Here are the basic techniques:

1. Labiaplasty. Reduction in length and resection of excess skin tissue is carried out along pre-defined contours (basic technique, discussed at the preliminary consultation) under local anesthesia. The scope of surgery on the labia minora (resection of the labia minora) is calculated in such a way that in a standing position they ultimately do not extend beyond the boundaries of the labia minora. Technically, excision is performed in two main ways: linear and wedge-shaped incisions and is determined by the specific situation and anatomical features of the patient. Linear resection of protruding fragments is carried out along the entire length and eliminates scalloping - a folded, pigmented relief along the edges of the labia. Wedge-shaped (V-shaped) reduction is indicated for clinical hypertrophy of the MPG in the middle part, while their natural pigmentation and folding are preserved. The initially common V-, Z-, S-shaped reduction techniques are now considered inappropriate and are not used in aesthetic genital surgery.

   Photo of option No. 2. Wedge-shaped resection of the lip edge.

2. Reduction of the labia minora in combination with excision of the skin at the entrance to the vagina . This combined technique is usually relevant for women who have already given birth, whose skin of the perineum, just below the vaginal opening, is stretched or deformed by postpartum sutures. Eliminating these internal skin folds will give the area a more beautiful, neat appearance.
3. Contour plastic surgery of the labia majora . The introduction of hyaluronic acid gel will replenish the volume of tissue in this area, increase skin elasticity, correct the relief of the vaginal vestibule, and cover the slight protrusion of one labia minora. Usually performed in addition to basic techniques, after a period of rehabilitation.
4. Hudectomy or excision of the clitoral hood . This technical design option is one of the most common. Removing the folds of skin around and on the sides of the clitoral head in combination with unilateral or bilateral reduction of the labia will make the intimate area not only visually neater and more attractive, but will also open up new opportunities on the path to understanding your sexual reactions.

Labiaplasty in the clinic

PREPARATION (consultation and tests).

Includes a preliminary consultation with a specialist, voicing the problem and joint selection of the optimal solution to it. During the examination, a plan for the upcoming procedure is outlined, and the patient can observe the computer modeling process on the monitor screen and make the desired adjustments. The necessary tests are taken (smears, blood tests for syphilis, HIV, hepatitis B and C, blood clotting; if indicated, a test for local anesthesia). The date and time of the visit to the clinic for surgery are agreed upon, as well as the final price for labiaplasty.

ANESTHESIA (local anesthesia or general anesthesia?).

Labia reduction surgery is performed in the clinic under modern local anesthesia, which eliminates pain. We do not use general anesthesia , caudal or epidural anesthesia (“shot in the back”) due to their inappropriateness and high risk of possible complications. What are the negative reactions after general anesthesia:

• suffocation;
• swelling of the airways;
• nausea, vomiting;
• inflammatory processes in the lungs;
• cerebral edema;
• renal failure;
• cerebrovascular accidents;
• depression, mood swings;
• asthenic syndrome;
• back pain due to trauma to the spinal root or at the puncture site, acute systemic intoxication, drop in blood pressure and pulse, etc. (after epidural anesthesia).

We do not use general anesthesia-sleep, so all of the above risks are excluded by default!

SURGERY ON THE LABIA MINARA (laser or scalpel).

The clinic practices surgical tactics; in some cases, the method of radio wave tissue surgery is used, which allows all manipulations to be carried out almost bloodlessly, accurately and with minimal trauma. Choosing the optimal method of tissue removal when performing plastic surgery of the female labia ensures rapid healing, no complications and the highest possible expected result! Everything lasts approximately 1 hour, at the end we observe for some time, give recommendations for caring for the surgical area, a schedule of follow-up visits and you can safely go home. about why we never do labiaplasty with laser at this link.

REHABILITATION.

Further healing and rehabilitation period after labiaplasty depends on the patient’s discipline and her cooperation with the doctor, so she should strive to follow all recommendations and be in agreed contact with him. In the postoperative period, you may experience minor pain in the surgical area. It is necessary to limit physical activity in the first days. Care for the post-operative area consists of treating with antiseptics and carefully following the rules of antiseptics. It is also possible to experience mild swelling, which may increase over the first 2-3 days, or mild hematomas (bruises), which go away on their own within a few days. Sexual relations can be continued after 15-20 days. Since the texture of the tissues of intimate places heals very well, after two to four months, as a rule, the former stitches are no longer visible and even an experienced eye will be unable to detect the operation performed. See comments on the topic “I had labiaplasty” in the “Reviews” section.

5. RESULT.

The final results of the efforts spent can be assessed after 2-3 weeks. Below you can see several photos before and after labiaplasty (18+). The images show the inner labia without intimate plastic surgery (block on the left) and 15-20 days after surgical manipulation. We have selected several of the most illustrative examples of the positive results of the correction, when, as it seems to us, we were able to realize all the requests of women to reduce their size, make their labia more beautiful and generally neater.

Preparation for labiaplasty

This type of plastic surgery is considered quite gentle, but preparation for the intervention is still necessary. Firstly, it is necessary to exclude the presence of contraindications. Restrictions include:

• blood clotting disorder;
• severe endocrine disorders;
• cardiovascular diseases;
• infectious diseases in the acute phase;
• fungal and infectious lesions of the vagina;
• presence of neoplasms.

You will need to do a general blood test, a gynecological smear, and a blood clotting test. Labiaplasty is not performed during menstruation, so the date of the operation must be clarified and agreed upon in advance. A few days before the procedure, you should also stop taking anticoagulants—drugs that reduce blood clotting.

The operation itself takes on average no more than one and a half hours. After the sutures are applied and treated, the patient can return home.
