At <strong>Skin Boutique,<\/strong> we follow each patient in a very personalized way, adjusting the treatment to the real needs of each skin. We also promote an open dialog between doctor and patient so that all doubts can be clarified before going ahead with the <g id=\"gid_1\">final protocol<\/g>. Below, we answer the most frequently asked questions.   <\/p>\n<p><strong> <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h4><strong>I want to improve the appearance of my lips. What should I do? <\/strong><\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The first step is to make an appointment for <a href=\"https:\/\/skinboutique.pt\/en\/book-an-appointment\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">an assessment<\/a> with <a href=\"https:\/\/skinboutique.pt\/en\/treatments\/skin-boutique-porto-lisboa-equipa\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Skin Boutique&#8217;s specialist doctors<\/a>. It&#8217;s at this appointment that you can ask all your questions and explain the results you want to achieve. <\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h4><strong>How does the treatment work?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The procedure is minimally invasive and lasts 30 minutes. Sometimes an anesthetic cream is used to make the <strong>treatment painless <\/strong>and increase the patient&#8217;s well-being. <\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h4><strong>Are the results of lip fillers immediate?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>It is possible to notice some effects immediately, but the final result is only achieved after 15 days, once the natural swelling has subsided. This procedure has a <strong>prolonged effect<\/strong> that lasts between 9 and 12 months. <\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h4><strong>Is it a safe intervention?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The fact that hyaluronic acid is a substance that exists in our bodies considerably reduces the risk of rejection. Lip fillers are therefore a <strong>safe treatment<\/strong> when carried out in a clinical environment by a medical team. <\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h4><strong>Are there any side effects?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>There may be occasional cases of swelling, redness, tenderness and minor bruising. Serious adverse effects are extremely rare when treatment is carried out correctly. <\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h4><strong>What should I do after lip fillers?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In the days after treatment, we recommend some precautions:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Avoid direct exposure to the sun;<\/li>\n<li>Do not touch the treated area;<\/li>\n<li>Keep your skin hydrated;<\/li>\n<li>Stop exercising within 24 hours.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>At Skin Boutique, our doctors carry out an <strong>initial diagnosis of<\/strong> the facial anatomy and identify the areas for the application of hyaluronic acid.
