Lip Augmentation (Hyaluronic Acid)

Hyaluronic acid lip enhancement to add subtle volume, improve symmetry and define the lip border, planned to keep the result in proportion with the rest of the face. A standard hyaluronic acid augmentation suits most patients, while a dedicated lip product such as Belotero Lips with a larger volume allows more detailed shaping. The doctor discusses the look you want before treatment and starts conservatively where appropriate.

Lip augmentation at Dr Kopaczyński uses soft, cross-linked hyaluronic acid filler to enhance the lips' volume, shape and border definition while keeping movement and proportion natural. Treatment starts with a discussion of your goals — better hydration and a tidy border, a little extra volume, or correction of asymmetry — and the doctor recommends a product and volume accordingly, often beginning conservatively for first-time patients. A strong topical anaesthetic is applied and the filler products also contain lidocaine, so the procedure is generally well tolerated. The gel is placed with a fine needle or cannula and shaped by hand; results are immediate, though lips commonly swell for a day or two and small bruises can occur, with the final shape clear within one to two weeks. Because the lips are mobile and metabolise filler relatively quickly, hyaluronic acid lip results are usually maintained for a number of months before a top-up is considered. The clinic offers both a standard hyaluronic acid augmentation and a dedicated lip-modelling option using Belotero Lips at a larger volume for more detailed shaping. As with all hyaluronic acid treatments, the result can be dissolved if you wish to adjust or reverse it. Lip enhancement is for adults seeking subtle, balanced lips; it is not performed during pregnancy or breastfeeding or over an active cold sore.
