LIPLASE™ – LASER TREATMENT FOR LIPS
LIST OF TREATMENTS
DESCRIPTION
Unlock the secret to naturally plump and alluring lips with Fotona LipLase – the breakthrough, non-invasive lip laser treatment that redefines without needles or fillers!
Liplase is a cosmetic treatment that uses laser technology to enhance the appearance of the lips. It is a non-surgical laser treatment for lips that involves using a laser to heat and stimulate collagen production in the lips, resulting in fuller, plumper, and more defined lips.
HOW IT WORKS
During the Liplase lip laser treatment procedure, a laser is applied to the surface of the lips, creating a controlled thermal injury that stimulates the body’s natural healing response. This process results in the production of new collagen fibres, which help to enhance the volume and definition of the lips through this laser treatment for lips.
During the lip laser treatment, the Fotona Erbium laser using the unique non-ablative Smooth Mode is a deep laser treatment that targets the vermillion borders of the lips, the oral commissures, the ridges of the philtrum and the Cupid’s bow area of the lips. As part of the laser lip procedure, the erbium laser acts by creating a thermal effect in the deeper layer of the dermis without affecting the epidermis. Controlled temperature increases of up to 60 degrees celcius results in collagen regeneration. The lips undergo a lifting effect during the laser treatment for lips, which results in more exposure of the lips due to an increase in volume. The laser energy directly stimulates the production of new collagen.
The second step of the lip laser treatment is working with the Nd:YAG laser in PIANO Mode, which is the safest mode for reaching deeper-lying skin tissues with minimal thermal effect on the surface. The lips above the vermillion border will also be treated in order to have a well-defined vermilion border which resembles the effect of a filler.
To achieve the best results from the lip laser treatment, you will generally need three to four treatments.
EXPECTED RESULTS
Liplase is a safe and effective laser treatment for lips, and it typically takes around 20-30 minutes to complete. Most patients experience minimal discomfort during the procedure, and there is usually no downtime required. However, patients may experience some temporary redness, swelling, and bruising after the lip laser treatment.
After the treatment the lasered tissue goes through three stages of healing: in the first stage, some swelling appears immediately after the treatment and lasts for about two to three days. The second stage in headline from laser treatment for lips is characterised by superficial surface peeling that lasts for 24 to 48 hours after the treatment. We recommend applying skin moisturiser as a lip balm to keep the lips moist and sun protection 50+ to the lips to prevent peeling from the laser lip procedure (Our Consultants at The Alchemist Laser Clinic will provide you with recommendations). The third stage is neocollagenesis, the development of new collagen. The patient needs to avoid going swimming, sporting activities, sun or sunbeds after the lip laser treatment.
It’s important to note that while Liplase laser treatment for lips can provide some improvement in the appearance of the lips, it may not be suitable for all patients. Those with severe lip asymmetry or significant volume loss may require other treatments such as fillers or surgical lip enhancement procedures. It’s best to consult with our qualified cosmetic provider at The Alchemist Laser Clinic to determine the most appropriate lip laser treatment or other suitable procedures for your individual needs.
