1. What is lip hyaluronic acid?
1) What kind of procedure is lip hyaluronic acid injection?
Lip hyaluronic acid injections are a cosmetic procedure that involves injecting hyaluronic acid into the lips to improve their volume and shape.
By adjusting the thickness and contour of the lips, this procedure aims to create a fuller, more three-dimensional look. In Japan, it is also known as "lip hyaluronic acid injection" or "lip filler."
2) Characteristics of lip hyaluronic acid
Lip hyaluronic acid injections are a procedure performed by injection without the need for incisions.
A key feature is that the injection location and amount can be adjusted to match the desired design and lip shape.

2. Expected effects of lip hyaluronic acid injections
1) Increase lip volume
If you have thin lips or a difference in thickness between your upper and lower lips, you may be concerned about the overall appearance of your mouth.
Lip hyaluronic acid injections involve injecting hyaluronic acid into areas lacking volume to create fuller lips.
You can create a natural, three-dimensional look while considering the overall balance of your lips.
2) Shape and define the lip contour.
Lip hyaluronic acid is used not only to add volume, but also to refine the contour and shape of the lips.
We can adjust the design to suit your desired look, whether it's an M-shaped lip that emphasizes the peaks of the upper lip, or naturally rounded lips.
However, the final result will vary from person to person depending on the original shape of their lips.
3) Care for asymmetry and balance of the lips
If the thickness or shape of your upper and lower lips differs, you may be concerned about the overall balance of your mouth.
Lip hyaluronic acid injections are expected to improve the overall balance of the lips by adding volume to the areas where it is needed.
It's important to design while considering harmony with the entire face.
3. Duration and price of lip hyaluronic acid injections.
1) When do the effects of lip hyaluronic acid fillers start to show?
Lip hyaluronic acid injections are a procedure where changes in volume and shape can be easily observed immediately after injection.
However, swelling may occur immediately after the procedure, so the final result will become more natural as the swelling subsides.
To confirm its natural state, it's important to wait a while.
2) Duration of lip hyaluronic acid
The effects of lip hyaluronic acid are not permanent, and the duration of the effects varies depending on the product used.
Korean-made fillers are generally said to last an average of 10-12 months, while imported fillers are said to last an average of 12-18 months.
However, the duration of the effect varies from person to person depending on the type of preparation used, the amount injected, and individual constitution.
3) The price of lip hyaluronic acid in Korea
The cost of lip hyaluronic acid injections in South Korea varies depending on the type of product used, the amount injected, and the clinic.

4. Downtime and precautions for lip hyaluronic acid injections
1) Pain and downtime
Since lip hyaluronic acid injections are administered via injection, you may experience a slight stinging sensation during the procedure.
After the procedure, temporary swelling, redness, and bruising may occur.
Swelling usually subsides within a few days to a week, but the recovery time varies from person to person.
2) Post-treatment precautions
After the procedure, avoid pressing or massaging your lips too hard.
Furthermore, it is important to refrain from drinking alcohol, engaging in strenuous exercise, or using saunas on the day of the procedure, following the clinic's instructions.
In rare cases, serious complications such as impaired blood flow can occur, so if you experience severe pain or an abnormality in the color of your lips, please contact the medical institution where you received the procedure immediately.
3) Points to note when taking the test while traveling in South Korea
Lip hyaluronic acid injections can be performed in a relatively short time, making it a procedure you can consider even while traveling in South Korea.
However, swelling and bruising may occur after the procedure, so be careful if you have an important event or are taking photos right before the procedure.
It's reassuring to confirm in advance your desired design, the medications to be used, and aftercare services upon your return home.
5. Q&A
Q1. Is lip hyaluronic acid injection effective after just one treatment?

However, the effects will vary from person to person depending on the desired look, the condition of the lips, and the amount injected.
Q2. How many cc of hyaluronic acid should I have injected into my lips?
