Due to aging and various other reasons, lips may lose their volume and take on a thin and worn-out appearance. Russian lips lip filler, with the hyaluronic acid in its content, restores the lost fullness to the lips, ensuring a younger and more attractive appearance is achieved. Medical Aesthetic Specialist Dr. Lida Çiteli, who serves her patients in Istanbul, explained the frequently asked questions about Russian Lips Lip Filler for you.
What is Russian Lips Lip Filler?
Lips lose volume either congenitally or with aging, which leads to a thin, worn, and weak lip appearance. However, a plump lip structure is one of the most important concepts in facial aesthetics.
The biggest reason lips lose their volume is the decrease in hyaluronic acid, which makes the skin look more taut and vibrant. When hyaluronic acid production decreases due to aging and various external factors, the skin loses its vitality, and the lips thin out and lose volume.
Russian lips lip filler restores the lost fullness to the lips with the hyaluronic acid in its content, ensuring a fuller and more attractive lip appearance is achieved. In Russian lips lip filler, unlike classic filler procedures, the lip contour is not made overly prominent. For this reason, it is also referred to as "baby lips."
How is Russian Lips Lip Filler Done?
Before Russian lips lip filler, the lips are numbed by applying anesthetic cream. The filler is performed starting from the points identified during the examination, taking the client's lip shape into consideration. In the application, the filler process is carried out vertically using fine needles. Thus, the upper and lower lip lines curl outward as if they were drawn. The filler content consists of hyaluronic acid, which is also found in human tissue. The filler procedure takes approximately 15 minutes.
Who Can Apply Russian Lips Lip Filler?
Russian lips lip filler is a medical aesthetic application that requires expertise and experience. It is important for the doctor performing the procedure to have knowledge about the person's facial structure, muscle structure, and where the muscles begin and end. Otherwise, negative results may be encountered. Therefore, it should be applied by a doctor who is an expert on the subject.
Is Russian Lips (Russian Technique) Lip Filler Suitable for Every Lip?
It should not be forgotten that every person's lip structure is unique. Some have thin lips, while others have thick lips. The doctor who will perform the Russian Lips procedure must analyze the needs and structure of the client's lips very well and plan a personalized application. The Russian Lips technique is suitable for almost every lip type. However, the application style differs for each lip.
What Should Be Considered Before Having Russian Lips Lip Filler?
Russian lips lip filler is not a surgical procedure. Therefore, it is not a risky process. However, to prevent swelling and edema after the procedure, blood-thinning medications should be discontinued 10 days before the treatment.
What Should Be Done After Russian Lips Lip Filler?
When Russian lips lip filler is performed by specialist doctors, the lips gain volume and a more attractive appearance is achieved. For the success of the application, after the filler:
- To extend the life of the filler, hot drinks (tea, coffee, etc.) should not be consumed for about 2 hours,
- Kissing should be avoided for 3-4 days,
- A dental examination should not be attended for 1 week,
- A cream with antibiotic content should be used to protect the lips from sun and wind,
- Pools and the sea should be avoided for 3 days to avoid infection,
- Smoking should not occur on the first day. Later, cigarettes can be consumed without straining the lips.
- Makeup should not be applied on the day of the procedure,
- Hot environments should be avoided for 1-2 days after the procedure. (Sauna, Turkish bath, hot shower, solarium, etc.)
- Ice compresses should be applied to the lips at certain intervals to prevent bruising,
- If bruising, swelling, or redness occurs in the treatment area 2-3 days after the filler, a doctor should be consulted immediately.
What Should Be Considered After Russian Lips (Russian Technique) Lip Filler?
The procedure is performed under local anesthesia. In this way, the person feels no ache or pain during the operation. They can continue their daily life from where they left off. They only need to stay away from hot and cold drinks for a few hours following the operation. This is important for the filler to maintain its permanence for a long time. Apart from this, kissing and dental examinations should be avoided for a period of two weeks following the application. If the swellings or redness occurring after the procedure still persist after 2-3 days, you need to contact your doctor. You can apply a compress to your lips with ice so that the bruises disappear earlier. Depending on the season and climate conditions, you can benefit from antibiotic creams given by your doctor to protect your lips from the sun and harsh winds. Since your lips are vulnerable to infections that may come from outside for three days after the Russian Lips application, it is also necessary to avoid entering the sea and pools.
It is also beneficial not to smoke as much as possible on the first day. Afterwards, you can return to your normal life habits, provided that you act sensitively towards your lips and do not strain them.
Again, avoiding makeup on the first day and staying away from hot and humid environments such as solariums, saunas, and Turkish baths for the first few days are other points to be considered.
It is possible to extend the life of the filler by paying attention to all these matters. It is very easy to have voluminous and attractive lips with Russian type lip filler, which can be repeated when necessary. This application, performed not only by women but also by men, is turning into a more popular medical aesthetic procedure every passing day.
Is There a Loss of Sensation in the Lips After Russian Lips (Russian Technique)?
Hyaluronic acid-based fillers tend to spread equally to the region where they are injected instead of staying fixed at a single point. For this reason, they do not affect the nerves located in the lip. That is, Russian Technique Lip Filler does not cause loss of sensation in the lips. At the same time, a loss of facial expression, as in bad botox applications, is not experienced.
Russian Lips Lip Filler Prices
The prices of Russian lips lip filler vary according to the experience of the doctor who will perform the application, the brand, quality, and amount of the filler, the center, and the city where the filler will be done. Low-priced filler applications can mean fillers made with poor quality and unhealthy materials. Therefore, it is important to research the doctor and center where the filler will be done, and the brand and quality of the filler to be used.
The factors that play a decisive role in lip filler prices are as follows:
- The quality and amount of the filler material
