One of the most attractive areas of the face are the lips, they are crucial for emotion and communication, both during animation and at rest. Throughout the years, several techniques to obtain permanent lip enhancement have been introduced, such as the use of nonresorbable fillers. The main problem related to permanent fillers is that undesirable results could not always be repaired; although lip sequelae can be addressed surgically, some surgeons will not perform this type of procedure due to its complexity and the lack of guidelines.In this paper, the authors present a case of a labial incompetence developed after lips implant removal performed elsewhere; after clinical examination the patient was planned for surgery, although during preoperative instrumental examination (chest X-ray) a solitary pulmonary nodule was noted; further investigation performed with needle biopsy revealed a lung cancer. For this reason, the surgical procedure planned for lip restoration was not performed; however, the patient asked for a minimally invasive procedure, thus to improve, although temporarily, her lips appearance.For the aforementioned reasons, the patient was treated just with hyaluronic acid injections achieving a pleasant result, solving also the labial incompetence at rest.To the best of the author's knowledge, this paper represents the first one describing the use of hyaluronic acid injections to restore lip competence following surgical removal of permanent implant.
