In the world of cosmetic procedures, the search continues to find treatment options that will give clients the best results. Whether it is the development of an advanced type of breast implant, a procedure for melting away fat or a new facelift, research is ongoing. The same holds true when it comes to the development of new lip fillers. Dermal fillers are commonly used to help clients to have fuller, plumper or well-defined lips. There are various types of fillers that are already in use. Clients often opt for fillers over implants because the procedure is not permanent, quick and provides instant results. With that being said, lip filler clinical trials are a must before any product can be approved for professional use.
Why Perform Lip Filler Clinical Trials?
In the same way that testing is a necessity for new medications, the same holds true with lip fillers. Lip fillers are injected directly into the lip body and/or border. One of the goals is to add more volume to a person’s lips for a fuller pout. It’s common for the lips to diminish in size as collagen production decreases with aging. Many women, and some men as well, choose to use dermal fillers to have a more youthful appearance. Others will choose lip fillers because they are not satisfied with the shape of their lips. When lip fillers are injected into the lips, the results are immediate. Most clients prefer a filler that will last at least 12 months and will cause minimal adverse reactions. Lip filler clinical trials are a must in order to be sure the fillers are safe and will work effectively, while giving a lasting result.
Creating a Better Lip Filler
Each time clinical trials are performed on new lip fillers, the goal is to find a product that will work best. The longer a lip filler lasts, the more promising it is. If there is a low risk of any type of allergic reaction, the lip filler is more likely to be approved. Reactions can occur with any filler. Minor reactions may result in irritation, swelling or scarring. More severe reactions could lead to life-threatening situations. Every type of lip filler needs to be run through adequate clinical trials before it can be FDA approved and used by cosmetic professionals in the industry.
The Public Deserves a Product that is Safe
It is the responsibility of companies that develop lip fillers to ensure they are safe. Clinical testing is the best way to find out what will happen when lip fillers are used. When results are positive and consistent after extensive testing, it will be possible to recommend new lip fillers for testing. Companies should strive to provide consumers with the best alternatives that are available for cosmetic procedures. If a substance is going to be injected into their body at great expense, it is mandatory that clinical testing is performed first. When the product is deemed safe, efficacious and long lasting, it is then satisfactory for FDA approval and potentially offered to the public.
