NOURISH, PLUMP AND HYDRATE

Hydralips treatment using a dermapen is a highly effective, innovative and exclusive solution for addressing various lips concerns. This advanced procedure combines the benefits of hyaluronic acid and micro-needling to rejuvenate and hydrate the lips. Introducing hyaluronic acid deep into the lip's layers with the precision of a dermapen offers a range of advantages for those seeking to improve their lips's texture, hydration, and overall appearance.

WHAT IS HYDRALIPS?

Hydralips treatment is a versatile cosmetic procedure offering numerous benefits for enhancing lips’ appearance. HydraLips treatment is a comprehensive procedure focusing on reducing dryness and revitalising the lips. The treatment involves a series of steps to address the condition of the lips effectively. It begins by exfoliating and removing dead, dry skin cells to create a smoother surface. The lips are then thoroughly cleansed to ensure optimal results. The practitioner assesses the individual’s water intake since dehydration can contribute to dry lips. Hyaluronic acid, known for its hydrating properties, is applied to lock in moisture and improve hydration. Manual exfoliation further refines the lips’ texture. A dermapen stimulates collagen and elastin production, promoting enhanced lip volume and texture. A nourishing lip mask is applied to replenish moisture and provide soothing effects. By combining exfoliation, hydration, and collagen stimulation, HydraLips treatment offers a comprehensive approach to address dryness, remove dead skin cells, and enhance the overall health and appearance of the lips.

Process

Before Care

  • Consult our doctor to determine if the treatment suits your lips type and concerns.
  • Refrain from IPL or laser treatments, unprotected sun exposure, or sunburn at least two weeks before the Dermapen procedure.
  • Avoid electrolysis, waxing, or depilatory lotions in the treatment area five to seven days before the procedure.
  • Do not shave on the day of the surgery to prevent lips irritation.
  • Avoid sun exposure or tanning for at least a week before the treatment.
  • Avoid using topical creams, lotions, or other lip care products that contain active ingredients such as retinoids, alpha-hydroxy acids (AHA), and beta-hydroxy acids (BHA) for several days before the treatment.
  • Stop using aspirin, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), or blood-thinning medications at least one week before the treatment.

Treatment

  • The nurse thoroughly cleanses your lips.
  • The appropriate needle depth is selected based on the specific lips concern being treated.
  • The Dermapen device has a sterile, disposable tip cartridge containing 11 tiny needles.
  • The device is then activated, and the vertical tip stamps the lips, creating micro-injuries that stimulate the production of new collagen and elastin.
  • The needles move quickly up and down, puncturing the lips’ surface and creating tiny, evenly-spaced channels.
  • The depth and speed of the needles are controlled to ensure even coverage and avoid excessive damage to the lips.
  • After the treatment, the lips may be slightly red, tender, and swollen for a few days.
  • Patients are advised to avoid sun exposure and wear high-quality sunscreen for several days after the treatment.

After Care

  • Dermapen treatment causes the lips to become sensitive due to the opening of microchannels.
  • Avoid using any products that could irritate the lips.
  • Apply a high-SPF sunscreen or avoid exposure to the sun.
  • Use only light makeup and gentle lips care products during the healing process.
  • Avoid rigorous activity, saunas, and steam rooms.
