Achieving Naturally Lovely Lips

Who doesn’t want to have lovely-looking lips? 

Full, Soft, Defined Lips.

That’s the dream. 

It has been well documented that a woman's smile is one of the first and most important features others notice. Over the last few decades, it became popular to pout out the lips by pressing them together for posing. This phenomenon became a trend extending to celebrities and teenage selfies. Red carpet poses and social media reflected it, and very quickly, lip fillers became introduced to help women achieve this look more permanently. 

The trend is over ladies. 

There is a big difference between full lips and duck lips.

Sadly, when lip fillers became a popular trend, women flocked to achieve the over-full lip look that is now considered overdone. Nicknamed “Home Simpson lips” or “duck lips”, lip fillers have come a long way to achieve more naturally beautiful fullness that everyone will notice, but no one will know what you did. 

The truth is, Duck lips are not a look our culture loves or is a trend that is considered chic anymore. A big part of my job is often correctional work to minimize volume above the top lip or below the bottom lip that is, well, just too much. 

It is heartbreaking to see women who are so disappointed with the far from natural lip fillers that have not achieved the results they had hoped for. More than ever, I can’t emphasize enough that you want a trusted aesthetic professional who truly understands your goals, and has the expertise to achieve them. The lips are a delicate and important part of our facial features so you want to enhance their natural beauty without drawing attention to an overdone look. I've had to dissolve a lot of bad work and re-inject properly when it comes to lip fillers. 

As much as I love to help correct, you might as well get it done right the first time! I love to educate my patients and spend time assessing their goals to offer solutions that provide you with the best results. If you are thinking about lip filler, I recommend these three tips: 

Choose the Lip Look you want

Lip Fillers have come a long way to be able to accomplish little enhancements that will beautify your smile. It is worth doing some research and finding examples and images that show what you are looking to achieve. The beautiful thing about lip fillers is that they do not have to protrude or project your lips outwards. The technique and product can help you achieve beautiful full lips with enhanced height and eversion that will give you natural-looking results. Do not hesitate to research and discuss your ideas and desires with your aesthetic medical professional. 

Choose the Right Filler Product

Choosing the right filler is so important! At Vive Medi Spa, we only use high-quality hyaluronic acid fillers that are specialized for lip injections. Our lips move a lot, so you want the appropriate concentration and the right placement to ensure your fillers will move along with them, and above all else enhance your smile, not prevent it! 

Choose an Expert Professional you Trust

Medical Aesthetics has evolved into artistry, and if you go to the right professional with the knowledge, experience and training, you can get natural-looking results. You want a professional who aligns with your vision, communicates and listens, and captures your goal to feel and look your best so everyone notices, but no one knows what you did. 

We all want full lips that are soft and showcase our smiles. Natural-looking results can help you feel naturally beautiful. Do your research before choosing a clinic and injector for your lip filler. 

Do you still have questions about how to achieve fullness and naturally beautiful lips? I would love to look at your lips and share all the possibilities!
