Biorevitalization for lips | moisturizing, shine, filling

Biorevitalization of lips

Biorevitalization of lips is the latest procedure that is definitely worth paying attention to.
Cosmetologists consider it one of the most effective and best, because... You can restore youth to your lips without surgery or long recovery. In principle, it can be performed on absolutely any part of the body. But, it is most often carried out on the face, because... representatives of the fair sex want to look beautiful at any age.

Lips age faster than other parts of the body. They have very thin skin, which often suffers from external influences and, as a result, quickly ages, lips lose moisture and sag.

Filler composition

Almost all lip fillers consist of hyaluronic acid.

The following components can be added to them:

Crosslinking agent (specific ester that stabilizes hyaluronic acid)
Phosphate buffer (an ingredient that reduces post-procedure swelling and regulates pH levels in tissues)
Anesthetic (lidocaine, ensuring comfortable administration and distribution throughout the tissues)

Gels based on calcium hydroxyapatite and other “hard” components are not intended for working with lips.

And of course, our clinic does not use biopolymer gels or other similar products, which inevitably provoke aesthetic and physiological complications.

What is meant by lip biorevitalization procedure?

Biorevitalization of lips is rejuvenation. The procedure is aimed at restoring youth to the lips, filling them with moisture, restoring their previous structure, forcing the cells to work and produce collagen. After the procedure, facial wrinkles disappear on the lips, the skin becomes elastic, smooth and they look young.

Cosmetologists recommend starting biorevitalization at the age of 25-28 to avoid the appearance of wrinkles.

Injections are given into the lips. The drug of unstabilized hyaluronic acid begins to actively work and under its influence the human body begins to produce its own hyaluronic acid.

It's no secret that with age, this acid practically ceases to be produced and the active aging process begins. And with the help of the drug, we restore its contents and return a second youth to the lips.

Indications for the procedure:

Age-related changes;
Wrinkles;
Hyperpigmentation;
Skin affected by smoking;
Cuperosis;
Skin smoothing;
Lack of vitamins and other useful components;
Correction.

Contraindications:

Inflammation on the lips;
Tumors;
Pregnancy;
Lactation period;
Autoimmune diseases;
Allergic reaction;
Blood diseases;
Psychological diseases;
Recent peeling.

Bruises after the procedure

A common side effect after lip augmentation is bruising. As a rule, they occur at the injection sites of the filler. This reaction is also considered normal, since the skin on the lips is especially sensitive and delicate.

When the needle penetrates soft tissue, damage to blood vessels and capillaries occurs. Because of this, the space between the cells fills with blood, resulting in a change in color in the damaged area.

Bruising may be affected by the use of an anesthetic during the procedure, as well as recent use of fish oil, vitamin E, and pain medications.

You should be alarmed if the bruise after the procedure does not go away within 5–7 days. In this case, it is better to consult a cosmetologist.

If during lip augmentation a large vessel is touched and an infection occurs, the bruise will only increase. Such a reaction can be dangerous, so under no circumstances should you postpone a visit to the doctor.

How does the lip biorevitalization procedure take place?

Before starting the procedure, the specialist must explain in detail all the details and conduct an allergy test. Be sure to look at all the certificates that indicate the professionalism of the master. Yes, and it’s better to contact a trusted specialist.

An anesthetic drug must be used. The drug is administered to the lips in two ways: laser or injection.

The laser method is not as popular as the injection method. To carry out the procedure, a special laser with low-frequency radiation is required. But it doesn't take less time. The procedure approximately takes about an hour.

Using injections it is much easier to inject the drug into the lips. The master is familiar with the technology and can inject hyaluronic acid at different distances.

15 minutes before the start of the procedure, the doctor removes all makeup from the lips and applies a disinfectant.

The injection is made with a thin needle. In some cases, flexible cannulas are used. To achieve a long-term effect, it is necessary to do several procedures over a certain period of time, approximately 3-5 weeks.

The doctor himself chooses the drug and prescribes the required number of procedures. He does this based on an analysis of the skin of the lips and age.

After the procedure, a disinfectant is applied to the lips. Sometimes the doctor will give a gentle massage to distribute the medication evenly over the area.

How important is the choice of lip filler?

Not all drugs are approved for use in Russia. And, of course, offers of drugs without a Registration Certificate from Roszdravnadzor are distinguished by a favorable price: as a rule, it is up to 8,000 rubles. Can these fillers be used? After all, in some countries they are allowed?

If you are lucky and:

the drug will turn out to be the original, correctly stored during transportation from abroad;
the cosmetologist will be a professional and will not violate the technique of administering the drug and the conditions for receiving patients;
you are young and have a good metabolism

then there should be no consequences of introducing the “left” drug.

But if at least one of these conditions is violated, then you may become one of the patients who experience the consequences of introducing unofficial drugs.

Drugs that are not approved and that we do not recommend for use

Dermalax, Rejeunesse, Regenovue, Elravie: after these drugs, our cosmetologists had to eliminate the unwanted consequences of the lip augmentation procedure.

Which product should I choose?

Of course “BioReVitaLips”. This is a unique product that is designed specifically for lips.

The product was developed taking into account all factors and special substances were selected that eliminate fine wrinkles, saturate the lips with moisture and protect against environmental influences.

Lips are a delicate area that requires special care and sometimes we simply forget that soft and sensitive skin needs doubly care.

"BioReVitaLips" moisturizes lips, returning them to their former volume and contours.

The product is indicated for patients with dry lips, those who want to get “plump” lips, those who want to avoid aging and simply emphasize the contour.

Like any medical product, BioReVitaLips has a number of contraindications. Before the procedure, you need to consult a specialist and not hide your illnesses.

“I was offered to get my lips done cheaply!”, or the main pitfalls of “cosmetologists”

Did you know that the nasolabial triangle is called the “triangle of death”? This area of the face is distinguished by a specific blood supply and a densely intertwined vascular-capillary network. That is why doctors categorically do not recommend even squeezing out acne in this area - an infection introduced into the wound can penetrate the systemic bloodstream and quickly spread to the brain.

Entrusting work with the nasolabial triangle to charlatans and impostors, especially if there is an invasive effect (as in the case of lip contouring), is equivalent to playing Russian roulette!

The second point: cheapness is an attractive marketing ploy only at first glance. If you delve into the cost of high-quality drugs, it becomes clear that the price for lip augmentation cannot be 3000-5000 rubles. At a minimum, this will not justify the purchasing expenses of the master or clinic. What will the cosmetologist receive for his work? You don’t think that anyone in the field of aesthetic medicine is engaged in charity in this way?

Preparations from proven brands that have been on the market for a long time:

Regularly subject to laboratory tests and examinations
They undergo a series of cleansing measures
Manufactured to the highest European, American and international quality standards
Hypoallergenic
They have proven themselves brilliantly in practice - none of the known fillers have resulted in severe complications after being administered to patients of different nationalities, races and ages

The purchase price of such gels is high, because huge laboratory and research facilities with staffs of thousands of people are working on their creation. And good cosmetologists pay a lot of money for them, not because they are a big name. But because after injecting the drug, they can work calmly and sleep at night, without fear for the health of their patient.

And if a doctor has forgotten the oldest postulate and principle of medical ethics from the time of Hippocrates, which sounds like “do no harm,” the question arises - what is this person doing in medicine?

By choosing cheapness, you voluntarily admit:

Gel rejection and migration
Fibrosis and tissue necrosis
Inflammation and suppuration
Infection (including due to possible unsterility of instruments)
Compression of blood vessels and nerve endings with characteristic consequences

Side effects are long and difficult to eliminate through surgical interventions, antibiotic treatment and other unpleasant measures.

What result should I expect?

As after any medical procedure, after biorevitalization the sponges will recover and return to normal. Do not forget that the skin of the lips is very thin and sensitive, which means it will suffer greatly from “beauty injections”.

After the procedure, you should avoid wearing cosmetics for a while. If you decide to carry out several procedures, then forget about lipstick for the entire period.

It is strictly forbidden to sunbathe, go to the bathhouse or sauna, fitness center and overload the entire body. In summer, it is advisable to cover your lips and use special products.

In the first days after the injections, in order to relieve swelling, swelling and redness, it is recommended to use anti-inflammatory drugs and make soothing masks. You can apply ice.

Of course, the doctor himself must prescribe creams and give the most effective mask recipe. You should not use any means yourself without consulting a specialist.

Popular fillers in aesthetic cosmetology

Despite the regular appearance of competitors, the most popular fillers are still those from the giant concerns Allergan, Teoxane and Merz. They have ideal cohesiveness and elasticity, undergo multi-level cleaning and control, and are packaged in convenient dosages.

The main and proven drugs for lip correction are:

Juvederm UltraSmile, Volbella
Teosyal Redensity, Kiss
Belotero Balance, Intense
Etermis 4

Juvederm filler is so popular all over the world that the corporation has created a huge variety of its derivatives. Allergan has developed UltraSmile and Volbella for the lips and perioral area only - and these are not the only gels in the series that can be used in the mouth. Teoxane also produces Teosyal Redensity, Kiss and other fillers suitable for lip contouring. And Merz released Belotero Balance and Intense fillers for a full-scale “game” with contour and volume.

For example, with Belotero Intense you can outline the contour, which is what any patient, both young and mature, expects from the procedure. It is the contour of the red border that women paint on with pencils and lipsticks, and sometimes they fill it with pigment for permanent makeup. The same filler is optimal for global treatment of the lips and periorbital area in older women. It is suitable for smokers, athletes, and patients with accelerated metabolism.

Belotero Balance and Intense preparations can be perfectly combined within one procedure, filling the contour with one, and the red border itself at a deeper level with the other. Princess Filler is also used for superficial rejuvenation or correction of adjacent areas.

The collections of cosmetologists contain innovative developments - fillers, in which each molecule of hyaluronic acid is enveloped in the antioxidant mannitol, protecting it from breakdown under the influence of native hyaluronidase, a degrading enzyme present in the body. This significantly prolongs the effect of the gel and keeps it in its original volume for a long time.

Unfortunately, unscrupulous cosmetologists often pursue only one goal: to sell more of the drug. They are not interested in such “little things” as harmony and proportionality of the face.

Remember: a conscientious and competent doctor will never inject you with more than 1-1.5 ml of filler during one procedure.

If your lips are thin and this is your first lip augmentation procedure, then introducing more than 0.5 ml is not advisable!

Violation of facial proportions

Before lip augmentation, the cosmetologist will listen to your wishes and give his recommendations. When translated into reality, our desires do not always meet our expectations. Excessively large lips can disrupt the harmony of facial proportions. A mouth that is too large is not perceived as something beautiful. Before the procedure, an experienced specialist designs the expected result, taking into account the features and proportions of the face.

Statistics, golden ratio and science.

In cosmetology and plastic surgery, scientific and statistical parameters of the lips are accepted, which characterize the “ideal” shape - ratios, symmetry and numerical expressions of volume. However, you and I understand that some people like “plumpier”, some “elastic”, some with relief, and some with a clear contour. You can find a friend based on taste and color, but not right away.

Professional cosmetologists with experience try not to pay attention to numbers and ratios, because the attractiveness of the lips is assessed exclusively in the complex of the entire face, and the most important thing about them is naturalness. But when it is possible to bring the patient’s lips closer to ideal proportions, when the patient’s wishes and the possibilities of correction coincide, then there is no shame in the result of the correction.

Golden ratio principle

Approximate and average norms for the structure of the nasolabial triangle:

The proportion of the upper and lower lips is approximately 1:1.6 (size and width)
The volume (bulge) of the upper lip at the extreme point is literally 1-2 mm greater than the same parameter of the lower lip
The size and width of the upper lip is, on the contrary, 10-25% smaller than the lower lip
The distance from the lower part of the nose (septum) to the lower part of the philtrum (base of the upper lip in the middle) is 1.7-2.3 cm
The distance from the middle part of the contour of the lower lip to the contour of the chin is 3-4 cm
The width of the philtrum corresponds to the width of the two front teeth
Open smile: 2/3 exposure of the anterior incisors and complete or almost complete concealment of the lower incisors

By the way, a group of scientists from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons conducted an experiment with a survey of 6,000 people. They were shown an image of a girl whose lips were changed in a graphic editor - from very thin to very lush. Those surveyed unanimously chose the option of an increase of 50% from the original.

People also voiced the opinion that ideal lips make up approximately 10% of the area of the lower third of the face. Now they plan to include these criteria in the advisory instructions for aesthetic surgeons and cosmetologists.

The tasks of harmonizing proportions can be diametrically opposed. And objectively, “small” lips do not always need additional volume - perhaps the defect is associated with the distance between the nose and the edge of the red border.

Ricketts line, S-line, line from nose to chin

Another test for determining the harmony of mouth proportions is called the “aesthetic Ricketts E-line.” It is conventionally drawn in profile from the tip of the nose to the most convex part of the chin, like the blue line in our illustrations.

You can often find a line that connects the extreme point of the chin, passes along the extreme points of the lips and rests on the nose.

You can estimate the required lip proportions using these diagrams yourself; it is believed that lips extending beyond the green line (or touching the blue line) look unnatural and are too dominant. The recommended profile is shown in Figure 2.

Only a cosmetologist with experience and a harmonious look can understand these minor features of symmetry. Look at the same profiles, but without the line tips.

The peculiarity of lip size corrections in profile is that the “ideal” depends not only on the size of the lips, but also on the size of the chin and nose!

See how the protruding, hyper-corrected lips from Fig. 3 can be brought back to normal by enlarging the chin with fillers (hover your mouse over Fig. 3).

We follow the rules

How long lip contouring will last depends entirely on the patient’s compliance with the cosmetologist’s instructions. As a rule, the main taboos concern only the first days or weeks after “beauty injections” (for example, a ban on hot drinks, restrictions on spa treatments and physical activity). Their main goal is to prevent the development of various complications and uneven distribution of the gel within the tissues.

The effect of voluminous lips will last longer if:

maintain a complete water balance in the body (you need to drink up to 3 liters of water per day);
use skincare and decorative cosmetics, the components of which are combined with “hyaluronic acid”;
refrain from actions related to physical stress on the lips (stretching, biting, etc.);
do not consume foods that increase metabolism;
Limit sunbathing and sauna use.

Drooping corners of the mouth

With age, not only wrinkles appear on the face. One of the unpleasant signs of aging skin is drooping corners of the mouth. Using contour plastic surgery, a cosmetologist not only adds volume to the lips, but also takes into account the anatomical changes in facial tissues. A good, experienced specialist will do everything possible to correct the shape of the lips and simultaneously lift the corners of the mouth.

Who needs lip augmentation with hyaluronic acid?

Most often, girls who have naturally thin lips turn to cosmetologists for this procedure. This technique is suitable if a girl is not satisfied with the shape of her lips, but she is not ready to undergo surgery or introduce synthetic substances, which are not always safe. Hyaluronic acid has the advantage that it is not rejected when injected, because it is normally present in the body of every person. That is why this method is the safest.

Result:

lips look more natural;
uniformity and uniformity across all lips.
the effect is reversible.

The latter plays a significant role, because there is a possibility that the patient will not like the result.

Lip contouring: how long does it last and when can the procedure be repeated?

In some cases, the result lasts up to one and a half years, and on average – six months. To maintain the effect as long as possible, you must follow certain rules.

Doctors are of the strong opinion that it is necessary to carry out the next series of injections with hyaluronate once every 6-9 months (the period depends primarily on the individual properties of the body and on how quickly the injected gel is absorbed specifically for you). And also from your desire for the desired effect, since if you do not repeat the injections, your lips will return to their previous volume and shape. Along with them, no matter how much we would like to admit it, the wrinkles and imperfections that we would so much like to get rid of will return. Since hyaluronic acid is a natural substance in our body, repeated series of injections will be safe for the body. True, there are patients who after a couple of months ask for a second increase, although they still have the effect of the first series of injections. Think about the fact that frequent injections can cause skin injury and scarring on the lips. Everything is good in moderation.

"Duck Mouth"

This is called protrusion of the lips forward. This is another mistake by the master. Duck mouth occurs when an excessive amount of filler is injected into the upper lip. It overflows and becomes longer. Hence the analogy with a duck's beak. Excess hyaluronic acid can be removed using special enzymes in cosmetology centers. When using fillers with another active substance, the work of a surgeon will be required.

How to choose a lipstick that enhances your lips

Typically, lipstick for lip enhancement is selected based on the presence of ingredients that are well tolerated. Good for some

and hot pepper, some require softer mixtures. After trying several options, you will find the most suitable one, focusing on your personal tolerance.

Color also matters. All lip enhancement products are available in light shades

. Otherwise, the natural color effect from increased blood flow in the lips will disappear, leaving only increased volume.

The ratio of lip volume to other facial parameters

In addition to a sober assessment of the initial structure of the lips, it is important to take into account the overall proportions of the face.

Rhinoplasty surgeons know that the problem of a large nose is not always associated with the true massiveness of its tissues. A prominent nose may be a consequence of chin hypotrophy and distal occlusion.

A similar story with the mouth. The same medium-sized lips will look completely different on a petite heart-shaped face and a full square face. Other parts of the face also play a major role in perception - eyes, nose, cheekbones.

People with the following initial data can safely enlarge their lips:

Oval shaped face with regular features
Smooth contour of the lower jaw, narrowed downwards
High cheekbones
Large distance between the philtrum and the tip of the nose
Thinness of lips in comparison with other facial features
Normal bite

People with the following data should approach lip augmentation with caution

Elongated and angular face shape - with the slightest overcorrection there is a risk of getting the rough appearance of a “travesty”
Large and bulging eyes - with hypercorrection there is a possibility of becoming like the heroine of a Soviet cartoon about the blue sea
Open bite - with overcorrection, the lower part of the face will protrude more forward, which will create something of a “Neanderthal” effect
A small face with subtle “doll-like” features - with hyper-correction you will get a caricature, or even “alien” appearance

This does not mean that you should forget about lip shape correction for the listed features. But this means that you should choose a doctor with a developed aesthetic sense and taste, who is interested in the beautiful result of the procedure, and not in selling a large dosage of filler.

Also, do not insist on a specific volume: the cosmetologist can better see what your lips and face as a whole . It is more profitable to come back for correction and add fullness after distribution and “shrinkage” of the drug than to inject hyaluronidase to completely or partially break down the gel.

Hypercorrection?

Cosmetologists often have to be torn between the medical rule “do no harm” and the corporate rule “the client is always right.”

And yet, an honest doctor would rather choose the option of parting with one client than tarnish his reputation. “Duck” lips are the object of mass ridicule and jokes. Online celebrities, who 5-6 years ago promoted their huge lips as an “image feature,” got rid of them surgically. “Experienced” patients in terms of contour plastic surgery are showing more and more caution with the previous requests to “inject the maximum volume.” And cosmetologists who allow hyper-correction create anti-advertising for themselves.

We don't like lips that are enlarged like this:

Does it hurt to inject the drug into the lips?

Comparing the tools for contouring - a cannula and a needle, we can say that with the first, pain is minimized due to the smaller number of punctures and the blunt edge of the tip.

We prefer a cannula whenever it is appropriate. But if a cosmetologist has to “twist” the lips or significantly modify their shape, this tool is not suitable for the job. It only allows you to recreate the volume and outline the contour of the red border.

Many modern fillers contain lidocaine, which allows the introduction and distribution of the gel to be as comfortable and painless as possible. But patients are sometimes frightened by the very fact of the injection, because the lip area is very tender and delicate.

In this case, topical anesthesia is proposed:

Anesthetic cream is applied to the skin
The surgical field is covered with film
The exposure is maintained for 15-30 minutes

For patients with a low pain threshold, we provide dental conduction anesthesia, which will completely dull the sensitivity of the lip area at all stages of the procedure.

The dominant opinion in the choice of drugs and techniques for lip contouring should be given to the doctor, although the wishes of the patient are necessarily taken into account. And the best way to get an ideal result without complications for the patient is to choose competent, reputable and responsible cosmetologists.
