Lip contouring is an injectable aesthetic procedure aimed at correcting the shape, volume, and quality of lip tissue using hyaluronic acid-based fillers. At the Sa-Nata clinic, the procedure is performed in compliance with medical protocols, safety principles, and an individual approach to each patient.
Common myths and their medical explanation
Myth 1. Contouring always leads to an unnatural appearance
From a medical point of view, an unnatural result is the result of a violation of the injection technique, excessive volume or incorrect choice of the drug. With the correct dosage and anatomical approach, the lips look natural and harmonious.
Myth 2. The procedure is excessively painful
The procedure is performed using local anesthesia (application or infiltration), which ensures patient comfort during the manipulation.
Myth 3. Fillers remain in the lips forever
Hyaluronic acid-based fillers are temporary. The duration of the effect is usually from 6 to 12 months and depends on the individual characteristics of the body and the type of drug.
Real clinical facts:
- the procedure is performed on an outpatient basis
- duration — an average of 20–40 minutes
- the primary effect is noticeable immediately after the injection
- the final result is formed after 7–14 days
- temporary reactions are possible: edema, hyperemia, sensitivity in the injection area
What result is considered clinically correct?
- preservation of anatomical proportions
- symmetry and harmony with facial features
- absence of hypercorrection
- even distribution of the drug
- improvement of tissue quality without disruption of facial expressions
Indications for the procedure:
- age-related loss of lip volume
- congenital or acquired asymmetry
- indistinct lip contour
- dryness and reduced tissue elasticity
The decision to perform the procedure is made after a face-to-face consultation with a doctor and an assessment of the patient’s anatomical features. Compliance with protocols, the use of certified drugs and a professional approach by the doctor are key conditions for a safe and predictable result.
