Objectives: The objective of this presentation is to describe our SM Lips technique for lip augmentation to achieve balanced and natural lips look, with less product, less pain, lower risk for complication and very high patient satisfaction.
Introduction: Besides patient lip anatomy, lip augmentation technique is the major determinant for its outcome, especially if we want to achieve natural looking lips, that are in aesthetic harmony with the face. Most commonly lip augmentation is related to 1ml of hyaluronic acid filler per procedure, however different technique can significantly lower also product consumption, without compromising lips volume and shape. With SM Lips technique we can achieve balanced and natural lips look, with less product, less pain, lower risk for complication and very high patient satisfaction.
Materials / method: In the SM Lips injection technique, we first clinically examined patient’s lips to be able to select proper product according to the G' prime of hyaluronic acid filler. In some cases, we decided to use two different G' prime fillers for the same patient. After that we decanted hyaluronic acid filler into one or multiple 32-gauge fine micro syringes, preferably 0.3ml of filler per one 32-gauge syringe. The filler was then injected through multiple entry points on the vermilion border for the upper lip and the lower lip, with retrograde linear technique or lollipop technique.
Results: Between August 2019 and November 2019, 100 female patients underwent a nonsurgical lip augmentation procedure with hyaluronic acid fillers using this technique. Ninety-five patients (95%) reported that they were satisfied or extremely satisfied with their lip augmentation procedure. Amount of hyaluronic acid filler used per patient was between 0.25 ml up to 1.00 ml, in average 0.5 ml. No serious complications were observed.
Conclusion: The advantages of this technique are: 1) enhanced hyaluronic acid filler injection process, because of more accurate product delivery and placement, more balanced and symmetrical result, fast filler tissue integration, very natural lips appearance
2) reducing the risk of complications like erythema, bruising, oedema and arterial vascular occlusion 3) less amount of product needed for the required result (up to 50% less) 4) less injection pain, fast recovery time and higher levels of overall patient satisfaction
