Are you noticing fine lines around your mouth or lips that look thinner than they used to? Many people want fuller, more defined lips — but without injectables or fillers. LipLase® offers a non-surgical, regenerative way to enhance lip volume and smooth perioral wrinkles using advanced Fotona laser technology.
At Generations Wellness Center in Cary, NC, we focus on regenerative treatments that stimulate your body’s own collagen production rather than relying on artificial volume. Using Fotona’s Er:YAG laser with SMOOTH® mode, our medically guided team helps you achieve naturally fuller, brighter lips with precision and safety.
What Is LipLase?
LipLase is a non-invasive lip enhancement treatment that uses Fotona’s Er:YAG (2940nm) laser in SMOOTH mode to thermally stimulate the lips and surrounding tissue. This controlled heating activates fibroblasts—the cells responsible for collagen production—leading to collagen remodeling and synthesis.
The result is gradual lip rejuvenation that may include:
- Increased lip fullness
- Improved definition
- Brighter lip color
- Smoother texture
- Reduction of perioral fine lines
Because LipLase stimulates your own tissue rather than adding filler, the enhancement appears subtle and natural.
How LipLase Works
LipLase is performed in two structured steps to address both the inner and outer aspects of the lips.
Step 1: Intraoral Treatment
The first step is performed inside the mouth. This intraoral approach:
- Improves perioral wrinkles
- Stimulates collagen from within
- Encourages vermilion eversion (a natural outward roll of the lip edge)
- Creates a fuller visual effect without injections
By supporting the structure from the inside, this step enhances overall lip projection.
Step 2: External Lip Treatment
The second step targets:
- The vermilion body
- The lateral tubercles
- The medial tubercles of the upper and lower lips
This precise external stimulation further enhances volume, smoothness, and brightness.
Together, these two steps create comprehensive lip rejuvenation.
What Makes Fotona LipLase Different?
LipLase stands apart from traditional lip fillers because it:
- Uses non-ablative laser energy
- Does not puncture or inject the skin
- Requires no synthetic materials
- Supports natural collagen production
The Er:YAG SMOOTH mode provides uniform thermal stimulation without damaging the surface of the skin. This makes the procedure comfortable and safe when performed by trained professionals.
Unlike injectables, LipLase does not create sudden, dramatic volume. Instead, it encourages gradual enhancement that looks like a refreshed version of your natural lips.
What to Expect During Treatment
LipLase sessions are performed in-office and typically last 20–30 minutes. Most patients describe a warm sensation during treatment.
There is little to no downtime. Mild redness or swelling may occur briefly but usually resolves quickly.
For optimal results, a series of treatments spaced several weeks apart is often recommended. Because collagen remodeling takes time, improvements develop progressively.
Who Is a Good Candidate for LipLase?
LipLase may be ideal if you:
- Want fuller lips without injectables
- Notice thinning lips due to aging
- Have fine lines around the mouth
- Prefer regenerative, non-invasive treatments
- Value subtle, natural-looking results
It is suitable for adults of various ages who want to support lip structure and definition.
