Lip enhancement with hyaluronic acid in Wolfsburg
Whether more contour, a little volume or balancing small asymmetries: at our Wolfsburg practice, physician Rafee El Kaddour models lips with hyaluronic acid conservatively and individually. The aim is harmonious, natural-looking lips that suit your face – no “overfilled” look.
How does a lip filler treatment work?
A gel of stabilised hyaluronic acid is placed into defined areas of the lip with a fine needle or blunt cannula. It binds water, shapes contour and volume and is slowly broken down by the body. The result is visible immediately and can be dissolved if needed.
We work sparingly: often 0.5 to 1 ml is enough to improve contour and definition without enlarging the lip. If you wish, we build volume gradually over several appointments – keeping the result controllable and natural.
Different techniques create different accents: fine contouring of the lip border, more volume in the body of the lip, or a subtle lift of the mouth corners. We discuss which technique suits you based on your lip shape and proportions.
Many modern hyaluronic gels already contain a local anaesthetic; we can also numb the lip. Swelling in the first few days is normal – the final result shows once it subsides.
How the treatment works
- 01Free consultation and analysis of your lip shape and proportions
- 02Selection of a suitable hyaluronic gel and technique
- 03Treatment with a fine needle or blunt micro-cannula for added safety
- 04Local anaesthetic on request; duration about 20–30 minutes
Results & longevity
The result is visible immediately; once swelling subsides (usually two to three days) the final shape appears. On the lips, hyaluronic acid lasts about 6 to 12 months depending on metabolism – tending to be shorter than in calmer areas such as the chin or jawline.
Results are individual and may vary. Before/after images show real treatments and are published only with the patient’s explicit consent.
Risks & side effects
Risks & side effects
- Common and temporary: swelling, tenderness and small bruises – often a little more noticeable on the lips.
- Occasionally: palpable unevenness, usually easy to smooth out.
- Reactivation of lip herpes is possible; with a known tendency, preventive treatment may help – please mention it.
- Very rare but serious: vascular occlusion. For this emergency we keep the antidote hyaluronidase and a protocol ready; hyaluronic acid is also dissolvable.
Aftercare
- Do not massage the lips firmly for 24 hours (unless instructed)
- No intense sport, sauna or tanning for the first 24 hours
- Drink enough; briefly avoid lipstick/make-up on the area
- Cooling eases swelling; alcohol and blood thinners promote bruising
Who is it for?
Suitable if you want more contour, a little volume or more symmetry. Thin lips can be emphasised harmoniously; we advise against very pronounced enlargement when it does not fit your proportions.
