Lip Restoration & Enhancement

For centuries, a woman's lips have been viewed as a sign of her sensuality. More recently, celebrities have brought beautiful lips to the forefront of fashion.

Over time, the sun, the environment, smoking or the aging process take their toll on lip fullness and definition. Thanks to modern medical advances in cosmetic enhancements, Nu Vela can renew or enhance your lips with laser treatments or injectable fillers or synthetic implants. All of these fillers are soft, pliable and have a natural feel.

But it takes a physical with an eye for beauty and symmetry to give you results that are natural and beautiful. Dr. Dishakjian has a keen sense of beauty and artistry that will help give you the results you desire.

Laser lip rejuvenation - The "Remington Lip" uses a combination of laser treatments to rejuvenate wrinkled or aged lips. During the healing process, the collagen and elastic tissue beneath the skin tighten and remodel, restoring the "V" to the upper lip, providing a healthier, more youthful shape to your lips.

Recovery - Following lip enhancement with an injectable product, your lips remain swollen for only a few hours. You may return to normal activities the same day.

When implants are used for lip augmentation, discomfort is minimal. Small stitches may be used to close the implant site and are removed in a few days. Some swelling may last up to a week. Elevating your head and applying cold compresses during the first 24 hours will help keep swelling to a minimum. Postoperative discomfort can be controlled with medication.

Generally, patients experience a slightly longer recovery period after laser lip rejuvenation. Most of the healing occurs during the first one or two weeks. During this time, the treated areas must be kept moist.
