Hello,Plastic Surgeon for Refined Appearance: Ryutaro Natsumeis

 

To have beautiful lips, use beautiful words.─ Audrey Hepburn ─

There's a famous saying that goes, "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder," but in the Reiwa era, combining it with lip hyaluronic acid injections will make your charm stand out even more.👄

◎What Makes Beautiful Lips

The philtrum and Cupid's bow (the so-called M-shaped lip) have a distinct outline.

When viewed from the side, the upper lip protrudes about 1-2mm further forward than the lower lip.

The upper lip curls slightly upward.

The height ratio of the upper lip to the lower lip is 1:1.6 (though for Japanese people with smaller lips, a 1:1 ratio is also considered beautiful).

The length of the philtrum is moderate.

 

◎Benefits of Lip Hyaluronic Acid

・Attractive shape：Achieve the golden ratio for your lips

・Improved complexionWithout applying lipstick, your lips will turn red, and people around you will start asking, "What lipstick are you wearing?"

・Moisturizing effectHyaluronic acid's moisture-retaining properties improve dryness in the lips.

・Nose bridge shortening effectIf you're concerned about a long philtrum, increasing upper lip volume can make it appear shorter. Creating an M-shaped lip further enhances this visual shortening effect. In such cases, combining this with philtrum-shortening Botox is recommended!

・Anti-aging effects:As we age, the facial muscles around the mouth weaken and collagen in the dermis decreases, causing the philtrum to lengthen and the lips to become smaller.

Adding volume to the upper lip can create a shortened philtrum effect! It also pairs well with philtrum reduction procedures.👄

・Underbite correction

For example, even individuals with an underbite can achieve improved lip shape with hyaluronic acid lip injections!

When the mentalis muscle (jaw muscle) is overly tense, it can cause the lower lip to protrude forward, making jaw Botox an effective complementary treatment.

 

◎Solve the reasons for hesitation!

・I'm afraid of getting puffy lips

The upper lip consists of three parts, and the lower lip consists of two parts.

If you don't consider the balance of each part and make the whole thing bulky, you'll end up with puffy lips.

When it comes to lip hyaluronic acid injections, it's crucial not to overdo it. The key to success is to start conservatively, filling only about 70% of the desired volume, and then adding more as needed.

 

・Pain

We begin by administering a local anesthetic to the mucous membrane inside your mouth. You may feel a brief sting, similar to the pain from a dentist's anesthetic, but once the anesthetic takes effect,There is no pain during the procedure.。

Please be careful not to eat hot foods for 2-3 hours after the procedure, as the anesthesia may cause a loss of sensation in your lips, increasing the risk of burns.

 

・Downtime

It's thickest immediately after. Over about four days, it reduces to roughly 60% of its initial volume.
You can apply lip makeup starting the next day, and there are no particular restrictions.
You may experience swelling for about one to three days afterward, so it's best to avoid important plans during this time.

It will be completely finished in one week!

 

・Will kissing get us caught? / When is it okay to kiss?

The soft formulation applied to the lips makes it virtually impossible to detect.

We recommend refraining from kissing for about one week after the procedure until the shape has settled.

◎Summary

Lip hyaluronic acid enhances your natural lip color without makeup, moisturizes your lips themselves, and creates an attractive impression.

By injecting the appropriate amount into the right areas, it is possible to achieve natural-looking results.
