The perioral zone is one of the first anatomical areas used as an object of contour plastic surgery. It was the banal lip augmentation procedure that became popular almost 15 years ago, on the one hand, that became the first stage in the development of contour plastic surgery, and on the other hand, due to the huge number of side effects and negative results, it quite strongly discredited injection methods of correction .

Modern products and methods of correction allow you to get the most diverse results - from correction of shape and volume to a completely natural light effect of "kissed lips".

The need to systematize the side effects of the use of fillers in this field and to develop uniform methods of diagnosis and therapy is dictated by a huge number of cases when I was asked for help by colleagues - specialists who received a negative result.

The growing popularity of the procedures led to an increase in the number of offers, which logically led to an increase in the number of unwanted effects.
