The Droplette 17-volt lip plumper set, “delivers ingredients such as hyaluronic acid deep into the skin and soft tissue, resulting in increased water retention in the treated area and a more plump appearance,” says Quynh-Giao Sartor, MD, a board-certified dermatologist. Other ingredients in the lip-plumping formula include collagen, Argireline, and peppermint.
Collagen is a protein in the body that provides support and firmness to various tissues. In lips, collagen plays a significant role in tissue strength and structure. The Droplette contains collagen that not only increases the natural collagen in the lips but also serves as a carrier for delivering essential agents like hyaluronic acid transdermally. Acetyl hexapeptide-8, known as argireline, “has a mechanism similar to Botox when delivered transdermally, where it can relax the muscles of the lip, resulting in the reduction of surface lines and irregularities,” explains Sartor. Additionally, peppermint promotes blood circulation to the lips as well as provides a cooling, tingling sensation.
