Lip Modelling (Hyaluronic Acid)

Hyaluronic acid lip modelling to add subtle volume, improve symmetry and define the lip border, shaped to stay in proportion with the rest of the face. The clinic's physicians — one of whom trains other practitioners in lip work — tailor volume and technique to your goals, whether that is hydration and a tidy border or a little more fullness. An optional lip flip with botulinum toxin can enhance the upper lip without adding extra filler.

Lip modelling at Klinika LA Beauty 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 — more hydration and a defined border, extra volume, or correction of asymmetry — and the physician recommends an approach accordingly, often starting conservatively for first-time patients. One of the clinic's doctors is a trainer in lip modelling, so technique is a particular focus. 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 24 to 48 hours and small bruises can occur. The final shape is usually clear within one to two weeks. Hyaluronic acid lip filler is commonly associated with a duration of around six to nine months, as the lips are mobile and metabolise filler relatively quickly. For a fuller upper lip without much added volume, a botulinum-toxin lip flip can be combined to gently evert the lip edge. As with all hyaluronic acid treatments, the result can be dissolved with hyaluronidase if you wish to adjust or reverse it. Lip modelling is intended for adults seeking subtle, balanced lips; it is not performed during pregnancy or breastfeeding or over active cold sores.
