Resumen

Objectives: This case report aims to demonstrate a new technique for lip rejuvenation, based on the association of perioral phenol-croton peel with lip filler with hyaluronic acid, which allows treating all components of lip aging And providing highly satisfactory results for the patient. Introduction: The aging of the lips leads to loss of volume, reduction in contour and formation of fixed rhytids in the perioral region. Treating this area is an important challenge due to the different components associated with its aging process. In this sense, phenol-croton peel allows effective treatment of deep rhytids in the perioral region, while hyaluronic acid fillers can be used to restore the contour, lost volume and restructure the lips. Materials / method: The perioral area was marked using a white skin pencil. A 1% Hetter formula was applied thoroughly with a first pass using a wooden applicator with the wet tip wrapped in cotton, followed by 5-10 multi-direction passes without adding any extra solution. No analgesia is needed, as phenol itself works as an anesthetic drug. After the healing process the lips was filled with hyaluronic acid using a 22 gauge cannula (image 1) Results: This case report aims to demonstrate a new technique for lip rejuvenation, with long lasting results and providing highly satisfactory results for the patient. Conclusion: The association of perioral phenol-croton peel with lip filler with hyaluronic acid is a new technique for lip rejuvenation, which allows treating all components of lip aging .
