Full, pillowy lips are said to be an indication of beauty, femininity and youth. Researches on facial attraction have shown that a lady’s lips are one of the principal things that people notice when choosing whether a face is attractive or not. Some are fortunate enough to be blessed with perfectly luscious lips, but a greater number are not as lucky.  Lip enhancement procedures improve the size and appearance of the lips that might be excessively thin or flat.

Non-surgical Lip Enhancements

The trend for more full lips is still at a high, the manner in which it can definitely change the vibe of one’s face without a medical procedure has some serious allure. Just a small injection of filler to the upper lips can change an individual’s face for sure. The mission to achieve full lips continues, many women longing for getting Kylie Jenner’s attractive pout. Juvederm and Restylane are go-to brands utilized for lip fillers. Aside from plumping up the lips with more volume, lip fillers can likewise be utilized to lessen lipstick lines, or vertical lip lines, to accomplish smoother lips.

Restylane Kysse filler offers flexible movement and natural-looking volume proven to last for up to a year. It has been found to enhance the texture and color of the lips while maintaining a full range of expressions.

Lip Flip

A subtle way to getting the coveted full lips effect without lip fillers. The Botox lip flip is a fast and simple aesthetic procedure that you can do on your lunch break. It includes the precise injections of only a couple units of Botox, along the upper lip (orbicularis oris) muscle, from the sides of the mouth and close to the Cupid’s bow, to relax and “flip” the lip to make a greater amount of the upper lip noticeable. This produces the illusion of a fuller and poutier yet seemingly natural-looking upper lip. Another incredible impact of this method is that it will permit your lips to remain voluminous when you flash a smile – the upper lip will not vanish. It can likewise help those people who have gummy grins coming about from overactive muscles on the upper lip.

Russian Lips

A new lip enhancement treatment craze that features luscious-looking subtle heart-shaped lips with more volume near the center, much like the lips of matryoshkas or Russian stacking dolls where the name was derived from. With Russian Lips, the cupid’s bow is accentuated, volume and lift are concentrated to the center of the lips keeping the sides flatter. It produces an effect that tends to widen and lift the lip rather than add excessive volume so it’s ideal for lip filler newbies or those seeking a natural finish.
