LipLase

Dive into the tech

On the LightWalker, LipLase uses the Er:YAG laser in SMOOTH mode to gently heat the lips from the inside, along the border and at the corners of the mouth.

Unlike fillers, it doesn't add anything. The heat stimulates the lips' own collagen and elastin, so volume and definition come from the patient's own tissue and look natural.
