Am I a Good Candidate for Lip Plumping?

Am I a Good Candidate for Lip Plumping?

LipLase™ is a proprietary Fotona laser treatment that enhances the appearance of the lips using laser energy and collagen regeneration, giving them a fuller, more natural appearance. Although this treatment is similar to lip fillers, it’s non-invasive, non-surgical, doesn’t involve puncturing or cutting the skin, and is relatively painless. 

Dr. Eric Mai offers this procedure for all skin types at STL Vein & Cosmetics in St. Louis, Missouri. The LipLase treatment is ideal for clients who are afraid of needles. By boosting your own collagen production and synthesis, this procedure gradually gives you naturally plump lips without introducing foreign objects into the body.

How does LipLase™ work?

LipLase is a non-invasive laser treatment that gives your lips more volume. The laser activates your collagen production and improves the overall shape of your lips. There are no needles, scalpels, or downtime required.

To counteract lost volume, Fotona LipLase uses a laser to heat the deeper layers of the skin, stimulating collagen production. The collagen in your skin is a structural protein responsible for its strength and elasticity. This lip plumping method works by boosting your body’s collagen production to progressively give you naturally plump lips. 

We treat the lips on the inside and outside to achieve maximum results. We also treat the skin around the lips. After treatment, you’ll enjoy fuller lips and tighter skin around the lips, along with improved elasticity and texture. 

Am I a good candidate for lip plumping?

LipLase is an excellent fit for most clients, especially those who dislike needles or are opposed to the idea of having fillers injected beneath the skin. You’re a suitable candidate if you want your lips to look fuller, smoother, and more youthful.

Older adults seeking fuller, smoother lips are ideal patients. Collagen production slows down as you age, making your lips appear thinner. Dr. Mai uses LipLase to stimulate the production of new collagen in your lips, restoring their natural fullness.
