What is a Lip Infusion?

 

A device is used that generates enough air pressure to launch a Hyaluronic acid mixture into the skin creating a plumping effect.

 

Hyaluronic acid is a safe and naturally occurring substance in the human body which is composed of two sugars (glucuronic acid and N-acetylglucosamine).  This substance exists in the epidermal and dermal layers of the skin and its main function is to hold water inside the skin’s tissue, keeping its appearance moist, plump and youthful. 

 

The mixture used in our lip infusion treatment is cross-linked, which means the substance has an increased stability, thus there is less chance of any damage to the dermis.  

 

Who is a good candidate for the Lip Infusion Procedure?

 

The Lip Infusion procedure is a great option for those who desire fuller, more plump lips without the use of a needle.

​

*Those who have had previous lip fillers should wait at least 2 months prior to booking.
