We tested it for you: hyaluronic acid injections for the lips
We tell you everything you need to know about hyaluronic acid injections for the lips: from procedure to results and prices. Ellie has tested this method for you for plumpy lips.
Hyaluronic acid injections for naturally plump lips by Ellie
"Between the ages of 30 and 40, too much sun, genetics and smoking can, among other things, play a predominant role in aging lips, leading them to look sadder or droopy... On my side, I have very thin, dehydrated lips, which continue to wrinkle over time. So I set out to find a center that would be able to meet my expectations: a place where I could be sure of the quality of the products injected and that would respect the body's natural beauty."
Lip contouring by injection at Lazeo
At Lazeolip enhancement is achieved with natural, biodegradable hyaluronic acid-based fillers, specially developed for lips, which deliver natural, long-lasting results. Hyaluronic acid-based fillers help smooth lines, soften dehydrated corners of the lips, and bring radiance to dry, tired lips. Others have more volumizing properties to plump lips and define the cupid's bow, as well as subtly underline thin lips in a very natural way.
How does it work?
This depends on the injection technique used:
- Needle injections Several injections are made all around the lips. The results are natural, but the technique is a little uncomfortable. An anesthetic cream with a high concentration of lidocaine should be applied to the entire mouth at least 30 minutes before the session.
- Cannula injections Cannula injections: the doctor uses a needle to make a micro-hole on both sides of the lips, so that the cannula can be inserted and run along the lip. This technique minimizes swelling and bruising.
For my first session, the doctor applied an anaesthetic cream and opted opted instead for "hydrating" hyaluronic acid.This will rehydrate my lips, adding a little volume while naturally reshaping them. He will use both techniques, with a cannula and then a needle for the cupid's bow (the area in the middle of the upper lip). I see him again two weeks laterto check on the results and make sure that the first injections had met my expectations. We both decide to add a little volume, this time using a "volumizing" hyaluronic acid. The session proceeds as before, without pain or swelling.
Results of hyaluronic acid injections on the lips?
Like Fanny, the result is subtle and natural. I'm told that something has changed, without being able to say what it is, and that's exactly what I was looking for: a "me, only better" result. My lips are rehydrated, naturally redefined and fuller.They look healthier, without changing my face. I had none of the side effects (such as swelling or oedema) and was able to return to normal life after a few hours, while the effect of the anaesthetic wore off.
How often?
Hyaluronic acid is designed to deliver long-lasting results, with improvement still visible after more than a year. It dissipates gradually.
Rate
Depending on the quantity used and the areas to be treated, the price can vary from €360 to €420. But during the initial consultation, the doctor will tell you the exact price.
