Why choose hyaluronic acid injections for lips ?

Hyaluronic acid is a substance naturally present in our body, which makes it a safe and effective choice for aesthetic procedures. When injected into the lips, it deeply hydrates them, improves their consistency and volume while respecting their mobility. The results are temporary, which makes it possible to adjust treatments over time according to the patient’s wishes.
Whether you are looking for a discreet lip enhancement or a more structured effect, hyaluronic acid injections offer great versatility to meet the most varied expectations.

Hyaluronic acid lip injection techniques

Hyaluronic acid injections to enhance the lips are based on different technical approaches, adapted to morphological needs, age, labial mobility and the desired aesthetic objective. There are distinct injection techniques that do not produce the same result and do not respond to the same indication. The choice of technique does not depend solely on the desired volume, but on the initial structure of the tissues, projection, definition of the vermilion border and the possible need for correction. Each injection technique must be evaluated on a tailor-made basis during a medical consultation.

Lip augmentation

Volume enhancement constitutes the most classic approach. The injection of a type of hyaluronic acid specifically designed to provide volume allows the lips to be plumped without rigidity, while respecting their natural mobility. This enhancement must never be uniform. Dr Romano modulates the quantity, density and distribution of the product in order to preserve the physiological proportions between the upper lip and the lower lip. This treatment offers an immediate and natural result with controlled lip projection and a supple feel.

Lip hydration.

Hyaluronic acid hydration is a different approach, which consists in improving the quality and suppleness of the lips without seeking a volumizing effect. Very fluid hyaluronic acids are used to restore hydration, reduce fine lip lines and make the lips softer. The objective is not morphological but functional. This technique is perfectly suited to patients who do not wish to modify the size of their lips, but who desire a smoother and more harmonious appearance.

Correction of asymmetries

Lip asymmetries can present in different forms : one corner higher than the other, a less projected upper lip, a less defined contour or a volume difference between the two sides.
Hyaluronic acid makes it possible to correct these irregularities in a progressive and precise manner. Dr Romano injects small quantities of product at specific points in order to restore natural balance. The objective is not to increase volume, but simply to correct asymmetries. This method helps harmonize the entire face, as asymmetry in this area strongly influences overall aesthetics.

Russian lips

The so-called Russian lips technique aims to lift the upper lip without projecting it forward. The goal is more the tensioning of the vermilion than an increase in volume. This technique makes it possible to obtain a more defined lip, with a well-defined Cupid’s bow. Its performance requires very good knowledge of anatomy and rigorous technical mastery in order to guarantee a natural result and natural mobility.

Brazilian hug lips

The Brazilian hug lips technique emphasizes softness of proportions and a harmonious enveloping of the lips. It combines a slight increase in volume with a discreet definition of the vermilion borders. The result is sensual and very natural. Projection remains subtle, and the feel is physiological. This approach is particularly suitable for patients over fifty seeking an elegant result.

Lip contouring

Lip contouring consists in working on the vermilion border in order to restore definition, improve projection, optimize symmetry and highlight the natural lip line. It does not necessarily involve an increase in volume but rather a structural approach. This technique enhances color, improves the result of makeup and rejuvenates the lips. Contouring can be combined with a hydrating or volumizing treatment, depending on individual needs.

Why consult an experienced physician in Geneva for lip injections ?

The success of lip injections relies above all on the physician’s expertise. In Geneva, Dr Romano masters the latest techniques to deliver results that meet your expectations. During a consultation, a personalized treatment plan will be established to address your needs and enhance your natural beauty.

Hyaluronic acid lip injections : a tailored approach

Lip augmentation with hyaluronic acid is never a standard protocol. Each mouth has its own anatomy, mobility, vascularization and expression. The physician’s work consists of studying these specific features, observing lip dynamics at rest and in movement, then designing a tailor-made treatment plan. Some patients wish for a very subtle enhancement, others for a more visible enhancement : in each situation, the gesture must adapt to expectations, but also to the natural structure of the tissues.
In addition, the lips must remain expressive, supple, alive and coherent with the overall face. The priority is not to transform, but to enhance : to highlight a shape, correct an asymmetry, improve definition or restore lost volume. A personalized approach guarantees an elegant, natural and long-lasting result, without rigidity or exaggeration.

The advantages of a customized procedure

• Immediate and natural-looking results.
• Quick procedure with little to no downtime.
• Ability to adjust treatments to achieve the patient’s aesthetic goals.

Natural changes of the lips with age

Aging progressively modifies the morphology and function of the lips. Their structure becomes thinner, their color dulls, their projection decreases and their muscular dynamics evolve. These changes do not occur abruptly : they result from a natural reduction in the amount of hyaluronic acid, a decrease in hydration, a loss of skin elasticity and an alteration of the surrounding tissues. The lips always evolve together with the smile, the cheeks, the chin and the entire perioral region. A thorough understanding of these mechanisms makes it possible to personalize hyaluronic acid injections in order to preserve the expressive and natural character of the mouth.

  • Progressive thinning and loss of volume : with age, the lip becomes thinner and less full. The reduction in its hydration and the depletion of subcutaneous tissue make the vermilion less visible. The upper lip projects less and the profile loses its roundness. This phenomenon is normal. Hyaluronic acid injections make it possible to gently restore this lost volume in a way that is perfectly adapted to the facial morphology.
  • Decrease in hydration and color variation : since the lips do not have sebaceous glands, they dehydrate quickly. Their tone becomes duller, the surface dries out and small vertical lines become more visible. Hydration obtained through hyaluronic acid injection immediately improves their quality : the lips become more supple and softer, without any change in volume.
  • Sagging of the vermilion border and loss of definition : over time, the white line that outlines the vermilion border loses sharpness. The upper lip may appear slightly inverted, less present especially in profile. The mouth looks flatter and less structured. Targeted remodeling with hyaluronic acid makes it possible to redefine the vermilion border, support the lip and restore a natural architecture, without excess volume.
  • Vertical wrinkles and muscular dynamics : vertical wrinkles around the mouth are linked to repeated movements, skin thinning and loss of elasticity.

Psychological and functional dimension of the lips

Lip enhancement goes beyond the purely morphological aspect. A more harmonious smile, improved self-confidence and a more valued personal image are often the first benefits. The perioral region, highly visible and in constant motion, strongly influences the overall perception of the face in social, professional and emotional interactions. When correction is subtle and balanced, the perceived effect is not necessarily that of more voluminous lips, but that of a rejuvenated expression, a better-defined contour and a more attractive smile.
Hyaluronic acid injection into the lips is not only an aesthetic procedure. This technique can also improve daily comfort, particularly in cases of persistent dryness, tightness or small cutaneous tingling sensations. This functional dimension is often little known, even though it provides a real and appreciable benefit for many patients.

Increase in demand for lip injections

The desire to obtain slightly fuller lips is neither linked to a specific age nor to a particular gender. Younger patients generally seek better definition of the vermilion border, improved symmetry and a fairly noticeable volume that enhances the natural shape of the mouth. More mature patients mainly wish to improve lip hydration, correct progressive thinning and revive the peri-oral contour that has become less defined over time.
With age, the amount of hyaluronic acid naturally present in the tissues decreases. The lip then loses thickness, firmness and density. Injection treatment therefore does not aim solely to increase volume : it also makes it possible to restore what has progressively disappeared, while respecting the morphology of each face.
Current aesthetics favor an expressive, well-proportioned and luminous face. Modern injection techniques have changed the image of plumped lips. The objective is to achieve subtle enhancement, controlled projection and a natural definition of the vermilion border. Finesse and precision are now at the heart of contemporary aesthetics.

How do the shape and volume of the lips change with age ?

With age, lips naturally lose volume due to decreased collagen and hyaluronic acid. They may also become thinner, lose definition, and develop fine lines around the mouth. These changes can be reduced with hyaluronic acid injections, which restore hydration and firmness.

Current trends favor natural, harmonious lips. “Russian Lips” highlight a more defined Cupid’s bow, while gentle techniques such as lip contouring and hydration injections offer subtle effects. A personalized approach tailored to the face’s morphology is now preferred for a balanced and elegant result.

Asymmetrical, thin, or poorly defined lips can be corrected with hyaluronic acid injections. This technique also helps reduce perioral wrinkles, restore hydration, and add natural-looking volume without overcorrection.

Hyaluronic acid is an ideal solution for correcting lip asymmetry without resorting to surgery. Thanks to a precise and tailored injection, it makes it possible to rebalance volumes, redefine labial symmetry and achieve a harmonious, natural and perfectly proportioned result.

Hyaluronic acid injections suit most patients seeking lip enhancement, provided there are no contraindications (local infections, active autoimmune diseases, pregnancy). A prior consultation helps assess expectations and define the most appropriate approach for a customized result.

Yes, several techniques are adapted according to the morphology of the face and the lips and the patient’s wishes. The micro-bolus technique provides a natural and progressive effect, while “Russian Lips” offers a more projected volume. Lip tenting is ideal for enhancing the Cupid’s bow and structuring the lips. Each method is personalized to achieve a result in harmony with the patient’s face.
