What is mouth augmentation and shaping treatment?

Lip augmentation and shaping is an option for people who want to emphasize the natural shape of their lips or correct their shape. In aesthetic medicine, hyaluronic acid is used for the lip shaping procedure.
Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance in the body, with the ability to bind water molecules in the deeper layers of the skin, thus maintaining its hydration level. Over time, the skin, as well as the red lip area, lose their own hyaluronic acid, making the lips smaller, less hydrated and sometimes even dry.

What does the treatment accomplish?

With hyaluronic acid treatments, we can restore the lips to their natural volume and keep them moisturized. Lip reshaping treatment is also an ideal solution for those who want to correct the shape or subtly enlarge the lips while emphasizing their natural beauty.

Contraindications to the treatment

Pregnancy and breastfeeding

Cancers

Inflammation of the skin in the treatment area

Hypersensitivity to hyaluronic acid

Local infections, such as herpes, acne

Immune system disorders or immunotherapy
