What is LipLase?
LipLase is a non-invasive lip treatment that skips the needles found in typical lip fillers for laser energy that stimulates natural collagen production to create fuller lips with no downtime. The YAG advanced laser technology found in Fotona LipLase penetrates deep into lip tissues to create fuller lips via collagen regeneration and collagen remodeling. This non-invasive treatment creates comparable lip augmentation and lip volume enhancements without the sides effects of invasive procedures like injectable fillers.
