Course of the treatment of wrinkles around the mouth
The treatment of wrinkles around the mouth is based on injections around the mouth and in the lips, especially in the upper lip. It takes place in the doctor’s office.
It is entirely possible to inject hyaluronic acid into the lips without increasing the volume of the lips.
If patients wish to treat deep wrinkles or take advantage of the opportunity to improve the volume of their lips and cupid’s bow, this is also possible. Your plastic surgeon will use different types of hyaluronic acid depending on your request.
Wrinkles and fine lines around the mouth can be treated with aesthetic medicine including botulinum toxin or botox injections and hyaluronic acid injections in the lips.
Fine lines are treated by peeling, which is also an aesthetic medicine technique.
The results of the treatment last 12 months on average.
Wrinkles around the lip can also affect young women.
The aftermath after treatment
As with any type of injection, there may be a slight redness immediately afterwards. Covering makeup may be applied. The results immediately after the treatment should not be considered as the final results. In fact, during the following 2 weeks, the results will gradually improve.
For 2 weeks after the treatment, it is recommended to avoid extreme heat (sunbathing or sunbathing) or intense cold.
