Things You Need to Know Before Getting Lip Fillers

No one is born with perfect facial features. In pursuit of perfection, researchers have found a way to measure and define the perfect face. A perfect face is one that fits the golden ratio proportions i.e. 1 to 1.618. Many aesthetic doctors are guided by the definition of golden ratio proportions to alter carry out aesthetic treatments. They try to augment their clients' features to bring their features as close to the golden ratio as possible. 

Just less than a decade ago, cosmetic surgery was a popular option for people who wanted to reverse signs of aging or augment their facial features. With the advancement of non-surgical aesthetic procedures, dermal fillers are now taking over the industry by storm because of its convenience and visible results in achieving facial perfection. 

One particular treatment that is popular among ladies is lip fillers. Lip filler treatment is a non-surgical treatment to improve the contours of ill-defined lips using Hyaluronic Acid (HA). It has consistently top the list of aesthetic procedures performed by doctors in Singapore because of its ability to transform someone who looks unapproachable and mean to appealing and charismatic. With a proper lip filler procedure done by an experienced doctor, people can get satisfactory results in a matter of 30 minutes.

Even though undergoing a lip filler treatment is straightforward and convenient, you should be aware of the potential outcome and risks. Being equipped with the knowledge helps you to make a better decision. Many people do not know what to expect and leave it fully to the doctor to determine what is suitable. 

We get the inside scoop from Dr. Siew Tuck Wah from Radium Medical Aesthetics to tell us more about the treatment process and the risks you may be exposed to.

What is lip filler treatment?


Lip filler treatment is a non-surgical cosmetic treatment to augment the shape of the lips. It is a straightforward injection of HA dermal fillers directly into the lips.

Using one of the softest HA dermal fillers, the doctor carefully pushes the fillers into the lips and moulds them into position. You will notice immediate changes to the lip contours and volume. The shape of the lips becomes more puffed up and the overall structure of the lips improves as well. 

Benefits of using HA as a lip filler


Using HA is always the preferred choice to use on the lips although other types of fillers have been used. 

Using HA fillers on the lips have the following benefits:
  • Easily dissolvable with hyaluronidase. This means that any bad or unsatisfied treatment outcome is reversible. 
  • HA fillers are predictable and easy to control. It allows the doctors to shape the lips with great precision for sensitive areas like the lips.
  • Natural-looking, soft outcome is achieved using a soft HA filler.
  • Low risk of side effects or adverse reaction because HA is a naturally-occurring compound found in the body.

Lip augmentation using dermal fillers requires both experience and the inborn artistic flair to shape the lips beautifully. Always check with the doctor on his experience in performing lip filler and check if he is certified to perform the treatment.

The eyes are often one of the first facial features we look at when we meet people for the first time. It can be particularly embarrassing for people who don't look after their eyes, especially if dark eye circles and eye bags become visible to others.  The skin around the eyes are extremely thin.
