Plumping your pout with fillers is now potentially as mainstream as teeth whitening. They’re minimally invasive and have a quicker recovery time. The procedure involves injecting one of several types of fillers into the lips. Naturally, the lip filler styles has also expanded with celebrities now constantly flaunting their new lips on social media.
As we age, we naturally lose collagen and fat. This leads to thinness and sagginess of the face, including the lips. Lip fillers treatments work by replacing that lost collagen and fat.
Lip fillers consist of synthetic hyaluronic acid (HA) — HA is a natural substance in your body. Once injected, the gel in the filler supports and shapes the tissues of the lips.
Injectable fillers now help to correct genetically thin lips or improve the condition of lips that may have lost shape or volume with age or other conditions. You can add shape, volume and dimensions to your lips to make it more attractive. Over the years, especially with celebrity trends we have seen various shapes and sizes of lips being augmented using lip fillers. Which, if you are considering getting a lip filler treatment might leave you wondering what style to go for.
Although, we recommend you always consult your practitioner to help you decide what would suit your needs better; here we explore a few of the most common trends we have been noticing with Lip styles lately.
This is a perfect shape for subtle lip enhancement and a perfect style that will suit everyone. The Classic style produces a distinctive formation of all the natural S planes that exist in the lips. There is a balance between the upper and lower lips with a natural appearance from the centre to the tail sections. Patients who have lost volume through ageing and those who want a subtle augmentation choose this style.
The Cupid style enhances those lips that project a strong Cupid’s Bow form. This style focuses on the top lip accentuating the central cupid’s bow and gently lifting the outer edges. Adding volume to such lips accents the natural appearance and results in a sexy, full shape.
The Pearlique or Pearl is a pouty design that accentuates the lower lip and the two teardrops that form it. This produces shapes a more youthful, voluminous effect with a soft cleft in the middle, settling in to form pearl shapes on each side.
The Hollywood style is ideal for women who desire attention to their lips without a full presentation of both upper and lower lip. Frequently seen in the movie industry, it focuses on full expression of the upper lip and little to no augmentation of the lower lip. This extends and curls the upper lip, with less emphasis on the lower lip, maintaining a symmetrical balance.
Focusing more on the lower lip, this popular style adds instant glamour. We add volume to the two teardrop forms as well as the tail sections of the lower lip to blend the corners. Suitable for any fashionista.
The Ultimate Headturner! The Goddess, otherwise also known as Rubina, is a full showy top and bottom lip to get you noticed. This style is for those who enjoy a fuller expression of their Iips, without appearing overly treated or aesthetically displeasing. This style is the full expression of the 5 natural planes that exist in the lips. This can be a very pleasing style for those with enough length from the bottom of the nose to the chin.
There is a wide variety of techniques available to perform lip augmentation, with different products and technologies. The results of lip augmentation or rejuvenation are usually a balance of attractive and natural aesthetic appearance.
Generally, the lip filler treatment involves a careful assessment of the region and developing an effective treatment plan. It also involves an expert choice of appropriate fillers and methods for consistent delivery of excellent results.
The most popular method of applying lip filler is with regular needles. Your practitioner will use needles to inject dermal fillers into a number of specific places. This may result in minor bleeding. They will then lightly massage the region to spread the product evenly and limit the risk of edema. Standard lip fillers are typically injected horizontally into the lip, resulting in a uniform distribution of volume and fullness.
Traditional lip filler techniques give different results depending on the different types of faces and the level of rejuvenation required. F
Russian lip fillers are inspired by Russian nesting dolls and their perfectly coiffed lips. It’s a lip augmentation method that increased in popularity over the years. The Russian Lip technique shapes the lips into a subtle heart shape with more volume near the centre of the lips. Unlike traditional lip fillers, the technique tends to lift the lip rather than add volume, making them look more natural and an ideal solution for any newbies considering getting lip fillers.
The technique also makes your lips appear flatter rather than the plump-look normal lip filler techniques produce. The overall aim of this technique is to boost the height of the lips. The end product is doll-like, yet with a natural fullness and plumpness. Instead of a wider volume, this design emphasises the centre of the lips, giving you the coveted baby-doll aspect.
The Paris lip technique is quite similar to the Russian technique. In this procedure, experts use dermal fillers to sculpt the lips to create a well-defined, pouty set of lips. The part of the lips that borders its edges are the target of this technique. These areas can be filled with dermal filling substances to enhance the outer edges.
Also, a small amount of the dermal filler is injected vertically into the skin area from the cupid’s bow region towards the nose. The amount of filler within the lips and its distribution depends on individual needs. Application of more fillers towards the lip edges helps to get the desired kind of pout in the bottom lip.
Another popular method of lip augmentation is the use of linear injections. This method is relatively easy, and the filler goes parallel to the vermillion border.
However, there are a few downsides of using this technique. Occasionally, they do lead to undesired results. There may be some filler boluses prone to gel displacements along its borders. These techniques involve the filling of the vermillion borders. This process may give the lips an unnatural look and a kind of ‘duck’ shape which may diminish the sharp edge for youthful appearances.
Lip augmentation procedures are minimally invasive, quick, and produce immediate results. They’re one of the most popular cosmetic procedures out there these days – especially for people looking to achieve the perfect pout.
Typically Lip fillers will last between 12-18 months. This will depend on a number of factors including the product used, the patient’s age and how fast their body breaks down calories into energy.
Whether you are unhappy with the shape, volume or definition of your lips, lack a defined Cupid’s bow, or have noticed your lips aren’t as full as they used to be, a well performed lip augmentation using Dermal Fillers can help.
