LIP INJECTIONS AND PERMANENT MAKE-UP

SYNOPSIS

THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF LIP FILLERS AND HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT ONE Types of fillers Restylane This is hyaluronic acid filler with a very close link to water. This means that it is good for retaining moisture in the lips and allows for higher amounts of elasticity which means it has a better capability of providing sculpt and lift to the lifts. It is also high in viscous content which means that it will maintain the natural shape of the lips. It consists of one percent of the hyaluronic chain which means that this treatment would last up to six to nine months. Juvederm Ultra XC This type of filler is known to have a higher level of hyaluronic content present than when compared to Restylane. The content of G prime is also higher in this filler than when compared to Restylane which means that the lips become softer and are more horizontal in the spread of direction. It also contains lidocaine which an anesthetic known to reduce the pain that comes with injections and helps with giving the lips a fuller look. Since there is a greater level of cross-linking with the hyaluronic chain it means that it is bound to last longer than Restylane, which is up to nine months or a year.

THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF LIP FILLERS AND HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT ONE Juvederm Volbella This is the newer technology in the lip filler department. It has the lowest level of hyaluronic acid present which means there is less water content. This is the lip filler to choose if you wish for a more natural look since it will give a very subtle volume to the lips. Though it gives mild and natural looking results does not mean that it will dissolve quickly, this filler takes up to one year to disintegrate completely. How to find the right filler? The presences of numerous fillers may be overwhelming but there are certain factors that you look to which will help you determine your choice. Finding the right filler for yourself will depend on the budget you have, the doctor you are linked to, their experience in the field, the condition of your skin (this does not have to be any particular skin disease, but it can be as simple as sun damage or the elasticity of your skin, basically the overall health of your skin). If you are consulting a friend you need to keep in mind as to not get the same filler as their’s since everybody’s skin is different.

MYTHS ABOUT LIP INJECTIONS THAT ARE NOT TRUE Poor results cannot be reverted There are different sorts of fillers out there that can be used as lip injections, though fillers such as polylactic acid and calcium hydroxylapatite can take a year or two to disintegrate, a hyaluronic acid can be dissolved easily. If a person gets hyaluronic acid filler, which should be used in smaller amount especially for first-time users, and they decide they do not like the look of it, they can get injected with an eraser enzyme to immediately get rid of the filler. After this all the person has to do is wait for the swelling to go away and their lips will return to normal. Once you start you cannot stop A lot of people think that the lip fillers will stretch the lips out and if the treatment stops they will deflate and start sagging. This is not true. A person can stop the lip treatments whenever they wish to and expect their lips to not deflate and go out of shape. When you get injected with the hyaluronic acid, an element already present in our body, the collagen production gets stimulated. Once you stop the treatment the natural enzymes of the body start to dissolve the filler, it can take 6 months to two years depending on the particle size of the filler used. The leftover particles tend to thicken the dermis of the skin which helps prevent fine lines.

MYTHS ABOUT LIP INJECTIONS THAT ARE NOT TRUE Fillers are recognizable A lot of people refrain from getting lip injections because they feel that their lips will balloon up and not plump up in a natural way which will be very noticeable. This instance, of lip filler treatment becoming way too prominent, occurs only when the doctor who has injected the particle is unprofessional. Lip fillers are only about 10 percent of the product and 90 percent is about the technique. The expense of continuous refills People worry that once they start the lip injections treatment they will have to continuously get refills and which might also increase the expenses incurred. The truth is that even though you might have to get touched up, the treatments do not have to occur very frequently. Depending on the kind of filler, the shortest amount of time-space that you will get between treatments is around 6 months.

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PERMANENT MAKE-UP AND SEMI- PERMANENT MAKE-UP Permanent Make-up This is done with a tattoo gun It can only be removed with a laser tattoo treatment Pigments change over time and end up looking grey or green It does not look as natural as semi-permanent make-up As the skin ages the colour could shift and end up looking blurry It takes time to look good and settle within the skin Semi-Permanent Make-up The skin will naturally shed the coloured pigmentation after a year or so As it fades after time, the client will not need laser removal treatment The pigment is applied to the epidermis layers The dye used during this treatment is natural and hypoallergenic: less chance of allergies The recovery time is much quicker than permanent make-up: a week at most This option looks a lot more natural than permanent make-up does. This is because the semi-permanent make-up artist does not use heavy strokes like other tattoo artists and instead uses light strokes to dye the pigmentations in the superficial layers of the skin.
