Lips correction

Nice lips can add to the overall facial beauty very much. Often, a desired shape of the lips is achieved using a lipstick and lip liner pencil. Nevertheless, ordinary make-up does not always help (e.g. under such weather conditions as rain, snow or heat). In such cases, women can rely on permanent make-up or cosmetic tattoo.

Lip Shape Correction Using Injections
Patients who want to increase the fullness of their lips or correct lip contour are recommended injections of hyaluronic acid. It is a natural component of the connective tissue of the body and does not cause allergy. A lip injection takes between 3 and 10 minutes, depending on the extent of the treated area and the chosen filling substance.

Type of Anaesthesia
Injections of hyaluronic acid are made under local anaesthesia.

Side effects and risk
One of the most common side effects is swelling of the lips. It usually remains for up to three days. Bruises can appear, but they fade within a week.

Procedure Result
The result of the procedure is an improved lip shape. However, the effect is limited, and the injections must be repeated at regular intervals. The effect of the first injection lasts for six to eight months. If no repetitive injection is made, the gel dissolves (without making any harm to the body).

Cosmetic tattoo (permanent make-up)
What is cosmetic tattoo? Cosmetic tattoo is a procedure which involves the injection of colouring substances into skin. It differs from usual tattoo in that the substances are injected not as deep and blood vessels and nerve endings are not damaged during the procedure.
Cosmetic tattoo improves diffused and indistinct lip contour, emphasizes the lips, and corrects slight asymmetry.

The Procedure
The colour is chosen individually by the doctor together with the patient. It will depend on the colour of hair and skin type. The future tattoo contour is made with a special pencil and pigment is infused into skin with an appliance.

Type of Anaesthesia
When pigment is applied, the patient may feel tingling. To minimize unpleasant sensation, local anaesthesia is applied.

Side Effects and Risk
If the patient does not use anti-herpetic preparations as a prophylactic measure, herpetic skin rash on the lips may appear, and pigment on these spots may disappear. Neglecting the use of prophylactic means makes the correction procedure longer and more extensive.

Procedure Result
Improved lip contour that lasts for up to 5 years. Unlike ordinary make-up, permanent one resists heat, rain and snow, as well as swimming in the seawater. It saves time and allows feel confident in any situation.

Procedure Limitations
Tattoo can draw lip contour and visually enlarge lip volume. However, lip volume can be noticeably increased only using injections of special preparations.
The skin shows inflammatory reaction on the pigment as a foreign body. As a result, about 70% of the pigment is lost during the time of healing. For this reason, a correctional procedure is done almost in all cases about in a month following the initial procedure.

Recovery
Tattoo making is a surgical procedure that breaks top skin layer, so it requires special preparation and a period of rehabilitation. Patients that are prone to herpetic reactions have prophylaxis with anti-herpetic preparations 5-7 days before the procedure.
In the first 2 weeks following the procedure, anti-herpetic preparations alternately with antibiotics are used on the tattoo area. After peeling, doctor evaluates the condition of the lips and, if necessary, does contour correction.
