Title: Lip Augmentation
1Lip Augmentation
- Since the early 1900s, full lips have been a key
factor in womens beauty. During that
period,surgeons attempted to use paraffin as a
method for lip augmentation, but their efforts
were futile. In the 1960s, plastic surgeons began
to use silicon as a technique for lip
augmentation, but over 30 years, that technique
proved to be an unhealthy one. In the 1980s,
injectable bovine collagen was introduced into
the market as the safest and most effective
non-surgical method for lip augmentation. Over
time, that process became time consuming and
didnt produce long lasting results. In the early
90s, Hyaluronic acid was introduced into the
industry due to its natural elements. It was
rapidly implemented by plastic surgeons around
the world as the best non-surgical method for lip
augmentation that provided patients with top
results.
2Hyaluronic Acid
- What makes hyaluronic acid so unique is that it
is a natural substance that our own bodies
produce. Hyaluronic acid performs like a system
that transfers nutrients from our blood cells to
our skin cells it is an element that is in all
living things. In humans, high levels of
hyaluronic acid are found in tissues, and fluids
that surround the eyes. There is also a
reasonable amount of hyaluronic acid found in
joint fluids and cartilage. Plastic surgeons are
also able to control the amount that they inject
into the patient, giving the patient a more
natural look. With hyaluronic acid, the treatment
can be spread over a period of time until the
preferred results are reached. Hyaluronic acid
causes minimal bruising and swelling compared to
other dermal fillers and an allergic reaction is
unlikely.
Lip Augmentation and Dr. Torgerson
Lip augmentation may be a non-surgical procedure
and the filler is made of a naturalsubstance. For
top results, it is essential that the procedure
be performed by a board certified facial plastic
surgeon like Dr. Torgerson. Dr. Torgersons
Toronto Clinic uses the best dermal fillers in
the market such asRestylane, Teosyal and
Juvederm. Dr. Torgersons injectable filler
techniques are unmatched in the industry and
often travels teaching other surgeons, physicians
and nurse injecotrs about the latest techniques
and best practices. Dr. Torgerson uses dermal
fillers that comprise of Lidocaine, a freezing
agent for extra comfort.
3Lip Augmentation Procedure
- Dr. Torgerson will first discuss with his
patient the outcome of the procedure, the risks
involved, and how to prepare. Dr. Torgerson will
then converse with his patient about different
techniques, and dermal filler products that will
work for them. Once Dr. Torgerson has worked out
the best method and product that will be used, he
will then begin the procedure by giving his
patients a topical freezing to have them feel at
ease. Dr.Torgersons lip augmentation procedure
only takes approximately 15 minutes.
Results and Recovery Dr. Torgersons lip
augmentation last approximately 6 months, but
this really depends onhow fast a persons body
breaks down the dermal filler component. The
recovery from dermalfiller lip augmentation is
very minimal, with some swelling and possible
bruising over the following couple of days.
