Having a more shaped, aesthetic and attractive lip appearance adorns the dream of all women. Today, it is very easy to achieve this appearance with lip filling procedures performed safely. You can draw more attention in the society and add beauty to your beauty with lip filling procedures that are fuller, symmetrical and suitable for your facial structure with temporary or permanent lip filling procedures.
What is Lip Filling?
It is a filling procedure made to make the lips look bolder, aesthetic and shaped. In lip filling, a more shaped and attractive appearance is obtained by injecting dermal filler into the inside and around the lips.
What Does Lip Filling Do?
A thin and misshapen appearance may occur on the lips due to congenital or advancing age. The underlying reason for this is the decrease in hyaluronic acid and estrogen hormone in the body. In lip filling procedures, it is possible to have a more symmetrical, moist and vibrant lip structure by injecting a filling containing hyaluronic acid into the lips. An attractive lip appearance that looks more natural can be gained with lip filler to be made in accordance with the facial features without exaggerating.
Today, while thin lips gain a fuller appearance with lip filling, it is possible to give the thinner lips their old volumes with the effect of age advancement. Since hyaluronic acid used in filling procedures is one of the building blocks that make up the body tissue, it does not cause undesirable reactions.
What are the Types of Lip Fillers?
Lip filler types vary according to the shape, technique and permanence to be given to the lips.
Types of Lip Fillers According to Permanence
Temporary Lip Filling
Today, it is the most used method in lip filling procedures. This method is healthier than permanent lip filling. Hyaluronic acid, which is used in temporary lip filling procedures, is one of the building blocks of body tissues. Hyaluronic acid is the substance that makes the skin look younger and healthier. Therefore, there is no adverse reaction to the temporary filling processes.
The permanence of temporary lip filling procedures is approximately 12 months. Since the lip is a moving organ, ordinary fillings can melt in a short time and the lip can take its old lifeless appearance. For this reason, the use of lip-specific fillings in lip filling procedures will also increase the duration of permanence.
How is Temporary Lip Filling Applied?
After the lip is numbed with local anesthetic cream, the filler is applied to the lip using very fine needles. In a normal procedure, 0.7-0.8 cc of the filler is injected into the upper lip and the thicker part into the lower lip. However, if the lip is very thin, the entire filler can be injected into the upper lip. Lip augmentation procedures can also be performed with the cannula technique.
Temporary Lip Filling Prices
Temporary lip filler prices may vary depending on the experience of the doctor who will perform the procedure, the brand and quality of the filler to be used in the procedure, how many procedures will be performed, the center and city where the procedure will be performed. Low-priced procedures may mean poor quality filling.
Permanent Lip Filler
These are filling procedures to give permanent volume to the lips. Lip silicones made of solid silicone, such as breast prostheses, are mostly used. However, it is not recommended because it causes serious problems in most procedures. Previously preferred liquid silicones were banned because they caused excessive tissue reactions.
Today, with the advancement of technology, Permalip lip implant is used in a healthy way in permanent lip filling procedures. However, in order for these procedures to be healthy, they must be performed in expert hands.
How is Permalip, Lip Silicone (Permanent Lip Filling) Applied?
After the lips are numbed with local anesthesia or sedation anesthesia, a small incision is made in the corners of the lips. It is entered through these incisions with a special tendon holding apparatus, and the Permalip at the other end is held and pulled into the lip. After the Permalip is placed in accordance with the lip aesthetics, the procedure is completed.
Permanent Lip Filler, Permalip, Lip Silicone Prices

Types of Lip Fillers According to the Technique
French Lip Filler
French Lip Augmentation is the curvature of the upper lip in the form of an 'M' and the lower lip in the form of an outward-facing 'D' by paying attention to the upper-lower lip golden ratio. Hyaluronic acid is used in French Lip Augmentation procedures that create a sexier and more attractive lip shape.

What is the Permanence Period of French Lip Filler?
Due to the fact that it is a mobile organ and the stress that occurs after filling procedures, the destruction in the lip increases and volume losses occur frequently. French Lip Filler, on the other hand, provides a longer-lasting use by resisting these destructions thanks to the powerful antioxidants in its content. The permanence of the filling varies according to the patient's mimicry habits and environmental conditions.
