Who is this treatment for?
Lipofilling of the lips could be suitable for people who wish to:
- Permanently increase lip volume
- Correct lip asymmetry
- Regain fuller lips after age-related volume loss
- Avoid resorbable fillers
This treatment may not be considered in cases of pregnancy, active infection, active autoimmune disease, or in the absence of a sufficient donor area. A prior evaluation would be necessary.
Procedure
Prior Consultation
A consultation would allow for analysis of lip morphology, definition of desired volumes, and verification of medical indications.
Procedure
- Duration: the procedure could last 1.5 to 2 hours.
- Treated areas: upper and/or lower lips.
- Product used: purified autologous fat.
- Comfort: local or loco-regional anesthesia could be used.
- Process:
- fat harvesting,
- purification,
- precise reinjection using micro-cannulas to sculpt the lips.
The procedure would most often be performed on an outpatient basis.
Results
The volume would be visible quickly, with a temporarily increased appearance due to swelling.
The result could be more reliably assessed after 2 to 3 months, once the fat has stabilized.
A portion of the injected volume could be reabsorbed in the first few weeks.
When the graft takes properly, the result could be long-lasting for several years, with a natural look and feel.
Aftercare and Recommendations
After the procedure, you might experience:
- Lip swelling
- Moderate bruising
- Feeling of tightness
These manifestations would most often be temporary.
It would generally be advised to:
- avoid heat, strenuous exercise, and pressure on the lips for several days,
- follow local care instructions,
- attend follow-up appointments.
Pricing
Lipofilling of the lips is part of facial lipofilling.
- Indicative price: from €5,500
A personalized quote would be provided after consultation, depending on the volumes to be treated and the planned harvesting areas.
