TLDR Hyaluronic acid fillers are a safe and popular choice for enhancing lips, with manageable side effects and complications.

The document discussed the use of hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers for lip and perioral area augmentation, emphasizing their importance in cosmetic dermatology due to aging effects on lips. HA fillers were highlighted as a safe and effective option, with minimal risk of rejection and manageable complications through hyaluronidase injections. More viscous HA was used for volume enhancement, while softer HA was used for redefining the lip vermillion. Common adverse effects included temporary bruising, itching, and pain, while serious complications like vascular occlusion were rare and preventable with proper technique. The document aimed to guide specialists in achieving optimal results and managing complications.
