Lip Fillers

Lip fillers is a type of cosmetic procedure performed by injecting dermal fillers into and around the inner part of the lips.

The purpose of lip augmentation is to add volume to the lips and to shape the lip structure. These procedures are characterized as aesthetic interventions in the medical world. The filler used during these procedures is hyaluronic acid. This acid is known for its ability to add volume to the skin. This acid, which is always used in filler lips, repairs the tissues and makes the skin smooth because it is very compatible with the lip tissue. 

There are many reasons why people resort to permanent lip filler methods. People observe that the amount of hyaluronic acid, collagen, and elastin tissue in their skin decreases, especially after aging. The most favorite treatment method used to eliminate this deficiency is lip augmentation. However, this method is not suitable for everyone.

Especially those with inflammatory skin problems, pregnant women, and those with herpes problems cannot have lip fillers. However, almost everyone except these people can use this method. We observe that people who have psychiatric illnesses in daily life and do not want to resort to drug treatment also prefer this treatment.

Apart from acid deficiency, people who have the problem of sagging lip edges due to the effect of aging also have lip fillers. This method is mostly used for aesthetic purposes today. In the world and in our country, people who want to plump or shape their lips and people who want to make their lips more symmetrical often apply this method. The number of people who start treatment for these purposes is constantly increasing.

How is Lip Fillers Done?

There are some checks that should be done before starting lip fillers procedures. First of all, the lip filler suitable for the structure of the face should be determined. An anesthetic cream should be applied to the lip area about half an hour before the procedure starts. The reason for this situation is to ensure that the procedure can be completed painlessly. Injecting the filler is done with a fine-tipped needle. With this method, which is completed quickly, the procedures are carried out easily. 

Types of Lip Fillers

Types of lip fillers are generally divided into two. These are temporary lip fillers and permanent lip fillers. Apart from this, these types can be further diversified according to the shape desired to be given to the lips. The permanent lip filler method is performed by applying a silicone process to the lips. In the temporary method, different fillers are used. However, the most preferred filling material is hyaluronic acid. Lip fillers methods with different names are as follows:

• Hera Type Lip Filler Procedure: The name of the Hera type lip filler comes from Hera, the goddess of marriage. This method is mostly preferred by people who want to have a more vibrant, fuller and symmetrical lip. One of the first questions that comes to the minds of people who want to have lip augmentation is the question of whether there is an age limit for lip augmentation. The legal age limit for lip augmentation is 18 years old. However, those under the age of 18 can also have lip fillers with the permission of their families. Hera-type lip augmentation is performed by considering the golden ratio and facial features of the person.
• Aphrodite Type Lip Fillers Procedure: Aphrodite-type lip filler procedure takes its name from Aphrodite, the goddess of beauty. As the name suggests, this method is mostly performed by people who aim to be more beautiful. Aphrodite lip filling emphasizes aesthetic, attractive, and plump lips. Before applying this method, the facial features and facial structure of the individual are discussed. Otherwise, the wrong treatment can be applied. The main purpose of this procedure is to fit the lips to the face and make them more harmonious with the face. Another issue that people who are considering this procedure are curious about is “How much are lip fillers?”. It is not possible to give clear information about lip augmentation prices. Because lip filler prices may vary according to the preferred method and types. In addition, since prices can change very quickly today, it has become more difficult to give clear price information on the subject. 

• Venus Type Lip Filling Procedure: Lip augmentation procedures are generally named after goddesses in mythologies. Venus type lip augmentation method is named after Venus, the goddess of love and beauty. Although some claim that this name comes from the planet Venus, the general opinion is that the name comes from the goddess. There are many features that distinguish Venus-type lip fillers from Aphrodite and Hera lip fillers. 

One of these features is that it aims for a more natural and simple beauty. The lip filler material used in this procedure is hyaluronic acid. Most of the people who apply for Venus-type lip fillers are people with a thin face structure. Lip-filling models are generally in this form. It is quite normal to have edema after lip augmentation. The answer to the question of how long the lip filling is permanent is an average of 1 year.

Does Lip Fillers Beautify?

Since the perception of beauty can be different for everyone, it is not possible to give a clear answer to this question. However, when we look at the perceptions of beauty that have become widespread today, it is seen that plump lips are indispensable. Full lips are among the most striking points on the faces of people who are known as the most beautiful women in the world, such as Angelina Jolie.
