Bacio Lip Treatment

Conveniently located to serve the areas of Lake Oswego, Portland, OR and Woodburn, OR

The Bacio® lip treatment is a new, minimally invasive treatment that revitalizes your lips from the inside out. Unlike dermal fillers that primarily add synthetic volume, this treatment uses a blend of hyaluronic acid and vitamin B12 to restore your lips’ hydration and softness, allowing you to achieve a more defined, plump pout.

I, Dr. Quita Lopez, am a board-certified cosmetic surgeon and the medical director at Aesthetic Laser Center. I oversee a team that makes up one of Portland’s leading aesthetic practices, and we have helped thousands of patients transform their health and appearance. I offer several decades of experience performing both surgical and non-surgical procedures, and with this, I can help you achieve the aesthetic appearance you have always wanted.

About the Bacio Lip Treatment: Luxury Lip Rejuvenation with ProInfusion Precision

The Bacio lip treatment is an innovative solution for rejuvenating the appearance and well-being of your lips. During this treatment, we use microneedling techniques to create microchannels on the surface of your lips before administering the Bacio solution. The formula will then penetrate beneath your skin through these microchannels, enhancing its efficacy and your results.

The Bacio solution consists of hyaluronic acid and vitamin B12, two essential substances we need for maintaining our health. This blend can deeply hydrate your lips, restore their natural texture, and address visible signs of aging, allowing you to achieve results that look and feel like you–but better.

About Hyaluronic Acid

Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance that is present in the eyes, joints, extracellular matrix (ECM), and more. We use hyaluronic acid in several different treatments to restore lost volume and replenish/maintain your skin’s hydration levels. (1)

About Vitamin B12

Vitamin B12 is an essential vitamin that is consumed through foods, as a dietary supplement, or as a prescription medication. Vitamin B12 supports cellular metabolism and healthy tissue function, helping promote overall skin vitality. (2)

Procedure

When you arrive for your treatment, your specialist will meet with you and lead you to a private treatment room. They will cleanse your skin before applying a topical anesthetic to your lips to ensure a more comfortable and relaxing experience.

After your specialist has prepared the treatment area, they will use a handheld device equipped with a ProInfusion tip to carefully administer the Bacio solution into various areas of the lips. The ProInfusion tip features microneedles to deliver the formula deep beneath the skin with unparalleled precision.

Your specialist will pass the device over the upper and lower lips to target dryness, dullness, age-related changes, texturing, and more. As your specialist moves the device, the needles will gently penetrate your lips, infusing them with the Bacio solution.

The amount of the Bacio solution your treatment requires will vary depending on the type of concerns you are addressing, as well as their severity. Once they complete your treatment, you will be free to leave.

Recovery

After receiving your treatment, you can return to most of your daily activities immediately. However, your specialist may ask you to follow certain restrictions as your skin heals. These may include:

  • Avoiding harsh or irritating skincare products.
  • Refrain from wearing makeup on or around the treated areas.
  • Abstain from engaging in any strenuous or physically demanding activities.

You may also experience some redness, swelling, flaking, and tenderness around the treatment areas after your appointment. These effects are temporary and will subside on their own shortly, but you may also manage them using a cold compress, moisturizer, or over-the-counter medications. Your specialist will provide any additional recovery instructions you may need.

Results

After your Bacio lip treatment, you will be able to notice enhancements in your lips’ definition, texture, softness, and hydration. You may also notice a healthier, youthful-looking appearance overall, especially if your specialist corrected the appearance of visible signs of aging found around the lips.

You will be able to notice the results of your treatment continue to improve with time as the Bacio solution continues to integrate into your tissues. This makes the results of your Bacio lip treatment long-lasting, and you can enjoy them for several months. Most patients find that they achieve the best results after undergoing a series of three treatments, but you can see significant improvements after just one treatment session.

Cost of Bacio Lip Treatment in Portland

The cost of your Bacio lip treatment will start at $275, but the total cost can vary depending on the details of your treatment regimen. These can include factors such as the concerns your specialist is addressing, the amount of lip treatment they use, whether your specialist integrates other treatments into your plan, and more. Once you discuss each of these details with your specialist, they will give you a cost estimate for your Bacio lip treatment.
