If you decide to restore lost volume to your lips, you might find yourself in doubt about which filler to choose because there are several types
Lip fillers or, as we all call them, fillers, are natural substances that restore lost volume to the tissue into which the skin sinks, creating wrinkles. They are actually a tissue substitute that helps the remaining collagen to form new collagen into a very grateful skin base, thus restoring its radiance and smoothing out wrinkles.
All fillers from proven brands are of high quality and shiny. There are several types that differ in composition and durability, but they all have in common that they are natural and do not disturb the status of the organism, which is extremely important.
There is almost no age limit for their use, but we doctors recommend them for people over the age of 18, up to the late seventies.
Hyaluronic fillers
Hyaluronic fillers are mostly used, which are also the best. Over the years, our body stops producing hyaluronic acid and the skin tissue becomes thinner, more tired and dull. Hyaluronic filler will replace this loss and stimulate the tissue to create new protein-bound collagen. All of this will result in improved tissue connections and a more beautiful, healthier appearance.
If you use a proven brand, hyaluronic filler can last from 8 to 12 months, and often longer. There are expert guidelines for their application. It is recommended to apply them in at least two, and ideally in three occasions, with an interval of 14 to 28 days. Why is this necessary?
This time delay allows the tissue to start the rejuvenation process by creating new connective tissue, and the filler to fit and melt into one perfect base for more beautiful skin.
CaHA (calcium hydroxyapatite)
It is a type of filler that contains calcium hydroxyapatite, a component of bones. It belongs to slightly more permanent fillers with an average of one year. It is used for the middle part of the face, cheekbones, temples, lower jaw and chin.
It was once used in dentistry and reconstructive surgery, it does not move from the application site and side effects are rare. It is safe and reliable.
Poly-L-lactic acid
This type of filler, very similar to hyaluronic filler, helps the body create its own collagen. It is very long-lasting and can last up to two years.
Polymethyl methacrylate
This type of filler already contains collagen and very small beads that stay under your skin, giving it volume and tightness.
How are fillers applied?
Application techniques differ according to the target effect.
The doctor will use a needle or cannula. The needle is very thin and almost painless, and the filler contains an anesthetic, so this also helps to make the procedure as painless as possible. The cannula is gentler than the needle because it has a blunt end, but before administration, the doctor must make a puncture with the needle to create a path for the cannula to pass through. Before each injection, an anesthetic cream is applied to make the injections as uncomfortable as possible.
The whole treatment is over in half an hour. The key moments for mutual satisfaction, both client and doctor, are realistic expectations and patience. If you apply fillers in three stages, you will certainly achieve the most for less invested money. Time and your body work for you.

Let’s note at the end – there is no such thing as a bad filler, nor a bad doctor, if you choose a proven polyclinic. The polyclinic, known for one part of medicine, will certainly not have a bad doctor for aesthetics and will use only the best fillers. A well-known and recognized brand is a guarantee that the result will last as long as you want. The filler will gradually break down, but believe me that after its effect stops, you will want to apply it again. Even if you do not decide on this treatment, there will be no unwanted marks on your face.
The saying “I’m not rich enough to buy cheap” is fully valid here. You are valuable, so treat your face as well.
