Frequently Asked Questions

WHAT IS THE ‘KISS ME’ LIP AUGMENTATION TREATMENT

A plump pout can be seen as an icon of sensuality. For many years women and men have tried all sorts of devices, non-surgical treatment, surgery, facial rejuvenation, over the counter plumping products and massage therapies to achieve pucker perfection – mostly with disappointing results. Modern-day non-surgical lip augmentation uses gel-like products to enhance, and as required, restructure the lips.

The ‘ideal’ lips can be viewed as full, natural-looking, well-defined, having a strong Cupid’s bow (the V-shaped area of the upper lip). Features such as the lip border, balance between the top and bottom lip, and symmetry, are each an essential element for achieving luscious lips. In addition, it may also be appealing when the rich ridges connecting the upper lip to the nose (philtra columns) provide a well-defined curve.

Younger women are often wanting fuller lips to enhance their natural features and to feel more sensuous and feminine. Over time, a loss of the lip volume can occur and replacing diminished lip volume.

There are many types of products used to enhance the lips that are comprised of complex sugar molecules (found naturally throughout the body), and which bind with water to support the skin up, create volume and help reduce creases.

At Bella Plastic Surgery, we use high quality-based products to create soft, natural looking and well-defined lips. High quality products augment the natural contours of the lips and add fullness that looks and feels natural.

The products used for lip augmentation can also be used to fill deep creases, grooves, and lines, add volume to cheeks, and even smooth out lumps and bumps on the nose.

DOES IT HURT?

The Kiss Me Lip Augmentation Treatment is well tolerated with the use of topical and/or local anaesthetic which is administered prior to treatment.

 

WHAT TYPE OF PRODUCTS ARE USED?

There are a range of products, that contain different consistencies which are often broken down into three main categories: –

  • Thin products – designed to last 3-6 months
  • Mid-range products – designed to last 9-12 months
  • Semi-permanent products – designed to last 18-24 months

These products are made from complex sugar molecules that naturally occur in your body and bind with water to support your skin and increase volume.

At Bella Plastic Surgery, we use only the highest quality products to achieve long-lasting results.

WHAT IS THE COST?

The cost for the Kiss Me Lip Augmentation Treatment is subject to the type of product being used, and the volume of the product being used.  Please call us today for a discussion on the cost of you’re the particular treatment you are seeking.

WHAT IS THE RECOVERY TIME?

Typically, the Kiss Me Lip Augmentation Treatment will not interfere with your day-to-day lifestyle. However, from an aesthetic perspective, your lips will become swollen and bruised following the Kiss Me Lip Augmentation Treatment and this state will continue for a number of days to a week post-treatment. It is important that you plan your treatments as required.

POTENTIAL RISKS

Every non-surgical procedure involves a certain amount of risk, and it is important that you understand these risks and the possible complications associated. The majority of patients do not experience the following, but you should discuss each possible risk with your physician to ensure that you understand the risks and can make an informed decision regarding your treatment.

To prevent and/or help minimise any bruising after your treatment:

  • Sleep with the head elevated for the first evening. 
  • Vigorous exercise can increase blood pressure and aggravate any bruising that is developing – therefore, exercise should be avoided for the first 24 hours. 
  • You should avoid extreme heat for the first 24hrs (or until bruising has resolved). 
  • Topical creams that may help with bruising – reduction in the development and helping in the resolution. 
  • Arnica cream – apply liberally to affected area 3-4x per day until resolution 
  • Vitamin k cream – apply liberally to affected area 3-4x per day until resolution 

Final ResultsYour final results can take 2-4 weeks. Generally speaking, three-four mls of product is required to achieve optimal aesthetic results.
