HOW DOES THIS DERMAL FILLER WORK?
Hyaluronic acid is a naturally existing glycosaminoglycan (complex sugar) and is an essential constituent of the body. It is also one of the most popular components for injectable fillers, as it is well tolerated by the human body. Vivacy Laboratories, a French producer of skin fillers, incorporates curative skincare properties (mannitol) into its dermal filler line to revitalize the skin from within. Mannitol—an antioxidant commonly found in fruits—helps eliminate harmful toxins and impedes post-injection breakdown of hyaluronic acid gel. Results are instantaneous with minimal loss of the implant in the initial hours after injection. Besides that, Vivacy Laboratories is also renowned for creating the unique interpenetrated cross-linked network. This IPN-like technology helps maintain long-lasting results and allows the implant gel to fill in gaps underneath the skin, resulting in soft, plump lips.
HOW TO INJECT?
Only certified medical professionals well-versed in dermal filler injection techniques can safely treat patients using this product. Your patients should not take any blood-thinning medications or supplements within a few days before the treatment session. Inject Stylage Special Lips Lidocaine via superficial to mid-dermis lip injections using the serial puncture technique or linear threading technique. Encourage your patients to gently massage and apply cold compress to reduce post-injection swelling and pain. Your patients should also avoid makeup and extreme temperatures (e.g. sunlight, sauna, and cold rooms) for the first few days after injection to promote quick healing. Avoid using this filler on skin that is inflamed or infected, such as herpes breakouts or acne. As well, if your patients has recently undergone other dermal procedures, like chemical peels, wait until the skin has healed.
HOW LONG DOES IT LAST?
All Stylage fillers from Vivacy Laboratories are praised for the effective long-lasting results. Stylage Special Lips Lidocaine can last from 6 to 9 months. But, the duration may vary.
IS THIS PRODUCT SAFE?
Yes, this is a very safe aesthetic solution for those seeking to add volume to their lips. Designed exclusively for lip correction, Stylage Special Lips Lidocaine has gone through numerous tests and certifications. In fact, only high-grade hyaluronic obtained via biofermentation is used. Furthermore, since hyaluronic acid is easily biodegradable in the body, it can be injected with very minimal risk of reaction. Nevertheless, this implant is contraindicated in some individuals, including pregnant or breastfeeding women, or individuals with a hypersensitivity to any of the components (e.g. hyaluronic acid, lidocaine, mannitol).
