Botox and even lip augmentation have become popular today, and it’s not just women in the beauty industry who get them. Ordinary men and women want juicy, plump… kissable lips to look and feel attractive. But it’s essential that they look naturally full, and not something out of a Hollywood magazine gone wrong. One of the most common lip procedures, that is very safe when compared to surgery or botox injections is LipLase laser treatments.
This process can combat the reduction of natural collagen production, a common side effect of ageing and create fuller, luscious lips. Low collagen production leads to thin lips. LipLase is a laser treatment that can make your lips plump. It also maintains a natural appearance by improving the bodies natural functions of producing collagen.
Let’s find out all about LipLase laser treatments today.
What is LipLase?
LipLase is a popular non-invasive lip treatment. This non-surgical facial aesthetic procedure uses advanced laser technology. It increases the lip volume by boosting the process of collagen regeneration and elastin production in your lips.
Thus, this laser lip enhancement process gives your lips natural plumpness and defined lip shape. It ensures that you don’t get duck lips that look unnatural and plastic. It is a safe procedure, with a dual-wavelength laser system used in the Fotona LipLase procedure.
How Does LipLase Procedure Work?
How does LipLase add volume to your lips without injections? It’s time to look a little deeper to understand how exactly this treatment works. The procedure of LipLase can be performed from the inside of your mouth, as well as the outer regions. It is a reasonably comfortable treatment without any invasion, cuts, or bruises.
The process uses the Nd: YAG laser by Fotona to provide heat to the internal and external structure, along with oral mucosa. It uses short and strong bursts of laser energy and does not affect or injure the surface layers of your skin, making it a safe process.
It uses heat and targets the deep layers of the skin as a form of stimulation. As a result, the production of collagen starts to increase. Collagen plays an essential role in improving skin laxity and provides a smoother appearance. Thus, it has an anti-aging effect.
Collagen, together with elastin, prevents skin sagging and maintains elasticity, the laser heat also helps to plump up the lips. Thus, LipLase helps to beat the natural side effect of aging, i.e., the loss of collagen, while increasing the look of fuller lips. This reduction begins after the age of 20 years and increases with each passing year.
Women, in particular, face the effects of collagen loss after menopause. LipLase ensures that your skin has sufficient collagen required to maintain the youthful appearance of your lips. It results in tight, smooth lips with a natural volume.
What to Expect from LipLase Therapy Session
Each therapy session takes around 20-30 minutes. During this time, the procedure is performed without using numbing agents or anesthesia. Your recovery will require almost zero downtime. You can expect some warm sensation due to the thermal effects of laser – but it goes away soon.
You may also experience some swelling – and that, too, will not be serious. For the optimal results of LipLase, it is recommended that you opt for at least 6 weekly sessions of this therapy. Doing so will help continue collagen regeneration.
To maintain the appearance, it is suggested that you go for maintenance sessions from time to time. One maintenance session every 3 months should be enough. Thus, it is a convenient, affordable, and safe alternative to other lip treatments.
If you’re wondering whether the results of LipLase will be instant or not, the answer is “no.” The results will be gradual, and over time, you will notice that your lips are softer and fuller. That’s because it resorts to natural means. It is dependent on your body’s natural collagen production.
Hence, the results will also differ from one person to another because the process only enhances a natural process. In the first few weeks, you will not be able to notice any prominent change. However, when you go for follow-up sessions, the results will become more evident.
There will be a gradual increase in the volume of the lips. The skin surface will also become much more even, and you get a smoother smile. Thus, the moderate pace of change is a plus point of this treatment option. You may also see some changes in the lip colour as they start to appear healthier.
Is LipLase Treatment Painful?
LipLase treatment does not involve cutting or needle injections. Hence, the process itself is practically painless. It uses laser heat and in the hands of an expert, it is easy to tolerate the warmth you’ll feel in the target area.
It feels like a few drops of hot water and doesn’t even require the use of a numbing agent. But if you are extra-sensitive, the area can be numbed with proper medication. But most patients don’t need that as the technician will take breaks during the session. It is also a quick treatment, and you don’t have to be exposed to the heat for more than 30 minutes at a time.
After the process, you can experience the warmth in your lips for about an hour, after which the sensation starts to fade away. You won’t need to spend additional time in recovery either. Plus, it does not cause side effects like bleeding, bruising, redness, excessive swelling, or infection-induced cold sores.
LipLase vs. Botox / Injectable Fillers
Other lip augmentation treatments use dermal fillers, i.e., a solution that’s injected into the lips for a fuller appearance. Usually, hyaluronic acid is used for the purpose of improving the volume and structure of lips, and the results show and fade quickly.
On the other hand, LipLase is a laser treatment that doesn’t use needles. It depends on the heat of the laser to give your lips a more natural look. The results are slow and long-lasting and rely on the patient’s body’s ability to respond to the simulation and produce collagen.
Dermal fillers work almost immediately and allow you to control the results. Whether you want natural-looking lips or a prominent pout – Botox and dermal fillers are an option if you don’t mind needles. On the other hand, with LipLase your original lips will not look artificial.
The downside of dermal fillers is that your body will metabolize the solution injected into the lips faste. So you will need frequent follow-ups for maintenance. It involves the foreign material addition process by injection. Hence, you may experience bruising, bleeding, tenderness, swelling, or infections.
On the other hand, the results of LipLase will become more enhanced with time. You’ll see the most nuanced impact of this treatment in 4-6 weeks and won’t need frequent follow-up sessions. The side effects of LipLase, too, are minimal to none. You may experience some swelling, but it goes away soon.
