During lip correction with your own fat, no synthetic products are placed under the skin. Instead, the lips are injected with fat that was previously removed from another part of the body. The removed body fat is specially prepared and gently injected into the lips via a thin cannula. During this treatment, which is also called lipofilling, a ‘redistribution’ of the body fat is carried out. Not only can excess pounds be removed, but a long-term stable result can be achieved.

The advantages include ruling out allergic reactions or the rejection of a foreign body can thus be virtually. However, the procedure is much more complex than, for example, lip injection with hyaluronic acid or the implantation of silicone. This is because in this case, fat must first be sucked out of the patient’s own body through a surgical procedure. It can then be injected into the lips. Lip injections using the patient’s own fat is therefore particularly suitable for patients who would like to have liposuction in one operation anyway. In the lip area, experience shows that during the first few months, a little more of the applied fat is broken down again by the body than in other parts of the body. Lip injections with your own body fat can be repeated if necessary. However, the great advantage of this method is the long durability of the augmentation.
