The causes of the problems treated

There are a number of reasons why lips can lose their shine or become uneven:
- Natural ageing, which causes a reduction in collagen production and lip hydration.
- Environmental factors, such as the cold, sun or pollution, which dry out the lips.
- Lifestyle habits, such as smoking and sun exposure, which aggravate wrinkles and dehydration.
- Genetics: some patients have constitutionally thin or asymmetric lips.

The benefits of Dual Lip Sublimation

Dual Lip Sublimation is much more than a simple beautifying treatment: it's a holistic approach that restores radiance, youth and harmony to the lips.
This technique has many benefits, making it the preferred choice for patients who want to enhance their lips.

- Almost perfect symmetry.
- The result is subtle and harmonious.
- Fast, minimally invasive procedure.

Techniques

Dual plan sublimation' lip enhancement is based on two techniques:
- Moisturises and revitalises the cutaneous part of the lip.
- Moisturising and revitalising vermilion.

Moisturising and revitalising the cutaneous part of the lip

Moisturising and revitalising the skin of the lips by injecting hyaluronic acid is a lip injection technique designed to restore freshness and radiance to the skin of the perioral area.
This method effectively treats dryness, fine lines and ageing in this area.
Thanks to the injection of micro-droplets of low cross-linked hyaluronic acid, the skin is intensely hydrated, stimulated and revitalised. This approach also encourages natural skin regeneration by stimulating fibroblasts and collagen production.

What problem is being addressed?

This technique meets various aesthetic and skin needs, such as :
- Dryness of the perioral skin, often due to age or environmental factors.
- The appearance of fine lines around the mouth, caused by a reduction in the production of collagen and elastin, leading to a thinning of the skin.
- Actinic damage resulting from prolonged exposure to the sun.
- Loss of vitality and radiance in the skin around the lips, which becomes dull.
- Prevention of the signs of ageing, for younger patients wishing to improve their complexion and preserve the quality of their skin.

How does the method work?

During an initial consultation, Dr Romano examines the texture and condition of the perioral skin to identify areas requiring treatment.
After disinfecting the area to be treated, an anaesthetic cream can be applied for the patient's comfort.
Using a fine needle, very small quantities of hyaluronic acid are injected into the dermis at 1 mm intervals.
For optimum results, the treatment can be repeated two or three times, at intervals of 2 to 3 weeks.

Who should use this method?

This technique is suitable for a wide variety of patients:
- Patients suffering from age-related skin dryness and who have visible fine lines around the lips.
- Patients with skin damage caused by environmental factors such as the sun or wind.
- Young adults who want to refresh their complexion and improve the appearance of their perioral skin.
- Patients looking for effective prevention against premature ageing of the perioral skin.
- Patients concerned about the dull or tired appearance of the skin around the lips.

What are the causes of the problem being treated?

Changes to the skin of the lips can result from various factors:
- Natural ageing, which reduces the production of collagen and elastin, leading to a loss of elasticity and firmness in the skin.
- Exposure to external elements, such as the sun, cold or pollution, which dry out and weaken the skin.
- Tobacco, which accelerates skin ageing and encourages the appearance of fine lines.
- Genetics, as some people naturally have thinner skin and are more prone to dehydration.

The benefits of this treatment

Moisturising and revitalising the skin of the lips by injecting hyaluronic acid is a gentle and effective solution for improving this area.
This treatment not only provides intense hydration and more supple skin, but also prevents ageing. This technique is therefore suitable for people of all ages.

This technique offers significant benefits for perioral skin:
- Deep, long-lasting hydration, leaving skin softer and more supple.
- Visible reduction in perioral fine lines.
- Stimulates skin synthesis by activating fibroblasts and producing collagen.
- Improved skin texture and radiance, revitalised skin.
- Lasting results, visible after just a few sessions and lasting a year.

Moisturising and revitalising vermilion

Moisturising the vermilion by injecting hyaluronic acid is an innovative and effective technique for improving the texture and appearance of the lips. This method specifically targets the vermilion, the red part of the lips, which is often prone to dryness, fine lines and cracks.
Using low cross-linked hyaluronic acid, this treatment intensely rehydrates the surface of the lips, restoring suppleness and softness while revitalising the tissues. Unlike volume-enhancing techniques, this approach focuses solely on hydrating and improving lip texture.

What problem is being addressed?

This method corrects several problems linked to lip dehydration:
- Dry lips, often due to age or environmental factors.
- Flaking and cracked skin, signs of a prolonged lack of moisture.
- Vermilion lines, resulting from loss of elasticity in the skin of the lips.
- Dull or rough appearance.
- Blurred or poorly defined lip contours.

How does the method work?

During the initial consultation, Dr Romano identifies the areas to be treated, marking the entry points and treatment lines.

For hydration
A small opening (a pre-hole) is made with a fine needle about 5 mm from the corner of the mouth.
A blunt cannula is then inserted through this opening.
Weakly cross-linked hyaluronic acid is injected superficially into the subcutaneous layer of the vermilion and distributed evenly over its entire surface.
Lips immediately appear more moisturised and smoother.

For revitalisation
After disinfection, using a fine needle, the doctor injects small quantities of hyaluronic acid into the superficial layers of the lips.
The "fanning" technique is used to distribute the product evenly, covering the entire treated area.
If there are fine lines around the Cupid's bow, these are also corrected.
In this indication, Dr Romano uses a weakly cross-linked hyaluronic acid to guarantee natural results.


Who should use this method?

Hydrating vermilion is particularly suitable:
- For dry, rough lips.
- Patients who want to prevent the signs of ageing in the lips without changing their volume.
- For patients who want to smooth fine lines and improve vermilion texture.
- Patients with cracks or fissures due to chronic lack of hydration.

What are the causes of the problem being treated?

Several factors are responsible for dry lips.
- Natural ageing characterised by a reduction in the production of collagen and elastin.
- Lack of sebaceous glands on the vermilion, making this area more vulnerable to dehydration.
- Environmental factors, such as the sun, wind or cold, which dry out the lips.
- Lifestyle habits, such as smoking or insufficient hydration, which aggravate dry lips.
- Genetic predisposition: some people have naturally drier lips.

The advantages of this method

Hydrating the vermilion by injecting hyaluronic acid is an ideal solution for restoring radiance and softness to the lips and preventing ageing.
This technique has many benefits:
- Deep moisturisation for soft, supple lips.
- Improved texture: the vermilion becomes smooth and even.
- Fine lines are reduced, giving lips a more youthful, revitalised appearance.
- Natural result: the shape of the lips is respected and the increase in volume is minimal.
- Fast, painless procedure.
