Lip Plumper vs. Collagen Lip Injections |
Lip PlumpersLip plumpers are a type of makeup which can be used to make the lips appear fuller, plumper and more attractive. Different types of lip plumpers have different properties. Some are colored, some tinted and some are clear. They may be worn alone, as a lip gloss, or in combination with lipstick. They may come in a tub to be applied with a finger, in a tube with a wand applicator in the lid, or in a container with a roller ball for application. Lip plumpers usually contain ingredients such as camphor or menthol which stimulate the lips by irritating them slightly in order to make them swell up a little. This does mean that it may cause a slight burning sensation upon application, and that lip plumpers are not suitable for people with sensitive skin. A lip plumper can help to make the lips appear fuller. It can also moisturize the lips, help to reduce the appearance of fine lines around the lips and stimulate increased collagen production. The effects will only be temporary, and the lip plumper will need to be reapplied in order to maintain the plumper appearance. Collagen Lip InjectionsCollagen lip injections are a more extreme option for enhancing and plumping your lips. Collagen is injected directly into the lips in order to make them fuller. This is a carefully targeted procedure which can help to improve the shape of the lips. Collagen lip injections can make the lips physically plumper, and it can also change their shape, for example to make them more symmetrical. Collagen lip injections alter the physical shape of the lips on a semi-permanent basis, while lip plumpers only have a temporary effect. The potential side-effects of lip injections are much more severe however, and some level of discomfort is to be expected when undergoing the procedure. |
