About Lip Lift & Lip Fillers Winnipeg

Nothing says sexy like thick and luscious lips. As we age our lips thin and our upper lip (area from the bottom of the nose to the red part of the lip) gets longer. Both of these give us the look of aging. The sex appeal of lips has a scientific basis behind it. When women get sexually aroused blood is pumped to the lips and they become red and plump. That is how red lipstick came about. At Visage we can help you get those irresistible lips you have always wanted.

We also offer Lip Flip at our St. Boniface location. Book an appointment there by calling (431) 441-0201

RISKS OF LIP LIFTS AND FILLERS

Lip lift risks include bleeding, infection, and scarring. As with any surgical intervention, bleeding is a potential risk that healthcare providers must manage diligently. Infection at the incision site can lead to complications if not treated effectively. It’s crucial for patients to discuss these risks comprehensively with their cosmetic surgeon during the consultation phase to understand all possible outcomes and strategies for risk mitigation.

RECOVERY TIME

The recovery process from a lip lift involves managing minor pain and discomfort, which can typically be controlled through prescribed pain medication. Patients can expect some degree of swelling and bruising in the treated areas, which generally diminishes within 2 to 4 weeks post-surgery. Adhering to the surgeon’s aftercare instructions is vital for minimizing common side effects and ensuring a smooth recovery trajectory. Activities that might strain the healing tissue, such as strenuous activity, should be avoided during the initial recovery phase to facilitate optimal healing and preserve the effects of the lip enhancement.

WHAT TO EXPECT FROM YOUR LIP LIFT PROCEDURE

Patients considering a lip lift should anticipate a visible incision line near the nasal base, which may remain noticeable for up to six months post-procedure. This visible scarring is strategically placed to enhance the natural appearance of the lip and face while being concealable with makeup. To prevent the widening of the scar, patients must carefully avoid stretching the affected area, particularly during the initial healing weeks. With proper after care, patients that undergo lip lift procedure often no longer require lip fillers in Winnipeg.

What are the benefits of injectable fillers?

Lip fillers, primarily composed of hyaluronic acid, offer several key enhancements such as increased volume and improved shape of the lips, contributing to a more youthful appearance. This cosmetic procedure, utilizing natural substances like hyaluronic acid fillers, is designed to rejuvenate the facial area with minimal downtime. Patients can see immediate results in lip fullness and the smoothing of lines around the mouth. The reversible nature of lip fillers allows adjustments in line with aesthetic goals during follow-up consultations.

What are the benefits of lip lift surgery?

Lip lift surgery is a permanent cosmetic procedure that enhances facial beauty by shortening the space between the nose and the upper lip, accentuating the lip's shape and fullness. Lip lift techniques include a corner lip lift, an upper lip lift, a central lip lift, a bullhorn lip lift and many more. The procedure, performed by a plastic surgeon, offers a dramatic improvement in the appearance of the face, providing a more defined lip line and a youthful appearance. This surgical enhancement is suitable for patients looking for long-term results beyond what injectable treatments can provide.

What are the benefits of a lip flip?

A lip flip is an injectable treatment involving a small amount of botulinum toxin (Botox) to the upper lip area. This technique enhances the natural shape of the lip, making it appear fuller without adding volume. Ideal for people seeking subtle enhancements, the lip flip provides a more aesthetic smile with minimal risk and downtime. Typically, the effects last for about three to four months, making it a temporary option for those considering more significant lip augmentation procedures.

What are the different types of lip filler?

Lip augmentation can be achieved with various types of injectable fillers, with hyaluronic acid fillers being the most popular. A substance naturally found in the human body, hyaluronic acid injections are widely used due to their safety and natural appearance. Other types include collagen-based fillers and newer options like poly-L-lactic acid that enhance volume by stimulating collagen production in the tissue. Each product offers different textures and longevity, catering to the unique needs of the patient, and should be chosen after a thorough consultation with a healthcare provider.

How long do lip filler injections last?

The duration of lip fillers can vary, generally lasting from 8 to 10 months, depending on the type of acid fillers used, the body's metabolism, and how the patient's skin reacts to the injectable treatment. Hyaluronic acid fillers, such as Dermal Fillers, are absorbed naturally by the body over time and require periodic re-injections to maintain the desired fullness and volume.

Should I choose surgical lip lift or fillers?

Deciding between a surgical lip lift and lip fillers depends on the patient's aesthetic goals, recovery time preferences, and acceptance of risks. Fillers offer temporary fullness and can be an excellent way for patients to test out the effects of augmentation without permanent changes. A surgical lip lift provides lasting results and is beneficial for patients looking for a significant alteration in lip shape. A detailed consultation with a cosmetic surgeon is crucial to make an informed decision tailored to individual facial aesthetics.

How much do lip injections cost in Winnipeg?

The cost of lip injections in Winnipeg typically ranges from CAD $300 to $700, influenced by the type of product used, the amount required, and the experience of the injector. The total cost can vary based on the patient’s goals and the specific areas treated.
