Lip augmentation with filler Stylage

Female beauty has been glorified since ancient times. Despite the fact that beauty canons change over time, one cannot but agree that a clean, healthy face will always be in fashion. Unfortunately, the older a woman is, the more difficult it is to maintain youthful skin. Minor imperfections can be hidden by skillfully applied makeup. But what to do when wrinkles are visible to the naked eye, anti-aging masks do not cope with the task, and you want to look in the mirror less and less? There are several options to solve the problem: surgery, Botox injections or hyaluronic acid injections. Surely you know that it is found naturally in the human body. However, with age, its production decreases, as a result, the skin fades. Cosmetologists came up with the idea of introducing artificially created hyaluronic acid into the body. In recent years, a large number of drugs based on it, both European and Russian, have appeared. In this article we will talk about the invention of the French concern Laboratoire Vivacy.

Features of the Stylage gel

Filler Stylage was developed in 2006, three years later it appeared in our country. It has a number of advantages over drugs of previous generations:

the composition contains antioxidants that provide an additional rejuvenating effect, as well as lidocaine, which anesthetizes the injection site;
3D Matrix technology promises a longer lasting effect;
IPN-Like technology gives Stylage elasticity, so it looks very natural under the skin;
the cost of Stilage is lower than that of competitors, which is undoubtedly a big plus;
the drug is administered clearly and easily.

In addition to hyaluronic acid, Stilage contains mannitol, which has the following properties:

reduces swelling after the procedure;
additionally rejuvenates;
the process of resorption of the gel in tissues is slower.

And sorbitol, an antioxidant included in Stilage, retains subcutaneous moisture.

Composition of Stylage M

Stylage M fillers are based on highly concentrated hyaluronic acid (20 mg/g) identical to natural one. This guarantees the biocompatibility of the drug and the absence of allergic reactions.
It also contains Mannitol. This component slows down the breakdown of hyaluronic acid, which actually slows down the aging process and makes the effect of Stylage M fillers long-term (lasts up to 12 months). Also, mannitol stops all kinds of inflammatory processes and minimizes the possibility of other unpleasant consequences. Among other things, this component is a natural antioxidant. Thanks to mannitol, toxins are removed from tissues, and the formation of collagen fibers is also stimulated!
The final element of the drug is lidocaine. It allows you to perform the filler injection procedure as painlessly and comfortably as possible. Plus, there is no need to give additional anesthesia and wait for it to take effect!

Main types of drug Stilage

The Stilage product line consists of the following types of fillers:

Purpose Stylage M

The Stylage M filler is used to correct the shape of the face, chin, the shape of the cheekbones and cheeks, injection rhinoplasty, elimination of deep creases and nasolabial folds, as well as for lip contouring.

Thanks to Stylage M, it is possible to adjust the shape and volume of the lips, correct asymmetry, and also make them more moisturized, bright and juicy.

Despite its fairly high viscosity, the filler is easily distributed in the tissues and evenly fills the required space.

Filler can be used from the age of 18 if there is a desire or need to adjust the shape or volume of the lips, and also if the lips need additional hydration.

Also, filler is widely used at the age of 30+ to eliminate signs of skin aging and correct imperfections.

The drug Stylage M tends to linger in tissues, which gives us a prolonged effect of up to a year from contour plastic surgery.

Thanks to the presence of mannitol in the composition, all the consequences of the procedure appear to a much lesser extent and pass faster than when using other drugs!

Contraindications

Like any drug, Stilazh has contraindications. If you have the following diseases and conditions, we recommend that you avoid the procedure:

pregnancy and lactation period;
allergic reaction to hyaluronic acid, sorbitol or mannitol;
the presence of old scars and keloids on the skin;
problems with blood clotting;
cancer;
diseases of the skin and connective tissue;
infectious and aggravated chronic diseases;
any inflammation on the skin, especially purulent;
intolerance to local anesthetics (lidocaine, creams).

At what age can Stylage be used?

The effectiveness of using Stylage gel is difficult not to notice.
The amount of natural hyaluronic acid in the body begins to decline after thirty years. Therefore, the use of drugs based on it before this age is pointless. However, there are exceptions to this rule. For example, sun exposure of the skin after a summer holiday or the desire to correct imperfections.

From the age of thirty, you can conduct several sessions of biorevitalization with hyaluronic acid. After thirty-five years of age, it is recommended to do corrective procedures between sessions to achieve maximum effect.

The number of procedures, as well as the type of Stylage gel, is selected during a face-to-face consultation with a cosmetologist.

Differences between Stylage and Juvederm

Stylage and Juvederm are similar in many ways, as the main material of both of these fillers is hyaluronic acid. However, these gels have different rheological and physical properties that influence their behavior within the dermis. This is due to the difference in structuring technologies used to create the finished product. In addition, Stylage contains an additional ingredient, mannitol, designed to slow down the breakdown of the product and prolong the effect of its use. It is important for practitioners to consider these differences when selecting a product to achieve optimal results.

Effect duration

The effect after injection of the Stylage gel depends on the type of filler. So, how long on average does the drug stay under the skin:

The effect immediately after the biorevitalization procedure with Stilage gel

Stylage S - nine to twelve months;
Stylage M - about a year;
Stylage L - twelve months;
Stylage XL - one year;
Stylage Lips - from six months to nine months;
Stylage Hydro - three to six months;
Stylage Hydro Max - two to four months.

Stages of the procedure

Before starting the procedure, the cosmetologist must find out if the patient has any allergic reactions or intolerance to hyaluronic acid and local anesthetics.

If everything is in order, then a special cream is applied to the skin and covered with a film.

After thirty minutes, when the anesthetic begins to “work,” you can begin biorevitalization. On average, it takes about half an hour. It should be noted that the procedure time directly depends on the areas that need to be corrected with the Stilage filler. After administering the drug, the cosmetologist massages the skin to prevent the formation of lumps.

Recovery and after care

The full recovery period after the introduction of the Stylage line of drugs is a maximum of 14 days; usually, by 7 days there are no traces of the intervention left on the facial skin. For 2 weeks, patients should exclude:

thermal procedures - visiting a bathhouse, sauna, taking a hot bath;
consumption of alcoholic beverages;
introduction of distinctly salty dishes to the menu, including home-canned foods and marinades;
aggressive cosmetic procedures such as peeling, the use of scrubs to cleanse the face.

On the first day after the injection of fillers, it is forbidden to wash your face or use decorative or skincare cosmetics. Next, you need to apply cold compresses to the skin and avoid exposing your face to sunlight.

Skin care after Stylage gel injections

After the cosmetologist has completed his part of the work, responsibility falls on the shoulders of the patient. The result of the procedure, consequences and effect will largely depend on how the patient adheres to the rules, especially in the first few days.

Recommendations for skin care after the biorevitalization procedure:

avoid sun rays and thermal procedures;
no massage, self-massage and rubbing in ointments, masks;
if the skin is tight, you can apply a moisturizer that does not contain alcohol;
no need to visit the pool for a few days;
For the first three days it is better not to wear makeup at all, but especially not to use foundation.

Lip augmentation with Stylage Lips gel

Lip fillers – which are better and safer?

To say that one drug is better than another is not entirely correct. Many cosmetologists, and accordingly their clients, get used to some brands, while others get used to others. Also, for different tasks, only a certain lip filler may be suitable, for example, more dense or, on the contrary, less dense.

We can say about lip filler that it should be a medium-density product. Especially if you came to this procedure for the first time.

Modern Russian clinics offer drugs from various countries of origin. The most popular are the USA, France, Italy, Switzerland and simply the leader in quantity and variety - Korea.

Which lip filler is best to choose is always determined in consultation with a cosmetologist.

Cost of the procedure

The cost of the procedure depends on the type of gel used. The minimum cost of Stylage fillers is as follows:

Stylage S - 13,500 Russian rubles;
Stylage M - 14,500 Russian rubles;
Stylage L - 16,500 Russian rubles;
Stylage XL - 17,500 Russian rubles.

After using the Stylage filler, wrinkles “melt” before your eyes!

Patient reviews

Daria, 32 years old, wrote:

I used Gel Stylage to enlarge my lips. I liked the effect, but I only lasted a month with big lips. I'm upset because they promised me at least six months. The filler itself is excellent, there were no side effects, the swelling subsided quickly. I don’t know why the effect disappeared so quickly for me. Waste of money.

Mayranush, 40 years old, wrote:

I chose the style on the advice of a friend. She did volumetric correction and biorevitalization for them. Overall, I liked everything. The effect is noticeable almost immediately, the skin begins to glow. I tried to follow the recommendations, but I could not avoid side effects. After a couple of weeks, bumps appeared under the skin and the gel began to migrate. They could only remove it through surgery. The effect itself lasted quite a long time. Nasolabial folds have decreased, as have wide wrinkles on the forehead. I would also like to say something about Lip Styling. An excellent invention, fully met expectations - lips like Angelina Jolie. I'm joking, of course, but the lips were actually gorgeous.
