USING BOTOX AND DERMAL FILLERS, LIP INJECTIONS PROVIDE NATURAL-LOOKING ENHANCEMENT, CONTOURING, AND ANTI-AGING
Do you want to know a secret? You’ve seen more lips treated with BOTOX & fillers than you’ve probably noticed. Giant “bee-sting” lips are just one extreme example of what lip injections can do. More often, in the hands of an experienced injector, results are natural-looking. In fact, for many women (and even men!) who seek lip treatment, the desired results are often more about symmetry, contouring, and anti-aging.
Does this sound like you? If so, you should definitely keep reading to find out how Beautifully New approaches non-surgical lip and facial treatments in Park Ridge, IL.
LIP INJECTIONS OFFER NATURAL-LOOKING REJUVENATION
Here at Beautifully New, we pride ourselves on delivering upon your expectations for natural-looking facial cosmetic enhancements. Using FDA-approved lip injections, we can enhance, smooth, and contour the look of your dreams. Whatever your lip goals, we encourage you to learn more below and contact us for a consultation in our Chicagoland medical spa in Park Ridge, IL.
Fuller Lips
Lip plumping doesn’t have to be dramatic and huge, but that doesn’t mean we can’t enhance your lips with natural-looking, youthful results. Whether your lips have thinned with age or you’ve just always wanted fuller lips, dermal fillers provide exceptional outcomes. In the hands of a skilled injector, results can still look natural, even if you envision dramatic results worthy of a double-take.
Balance & Symmetry
Beauty is about balance, and facial symmetry is considered the most attractive according to science. Lip injections work to achieve balance in two ways:
- Increasing lip volume for refined harmony with other facial features
- Improving lip symmetry, such as to match the upper and lower lip volume, or reshaping one side of a cupid’s bow to match the other side
Such balance requires precision, an expert eye, and a full understanding of facial anatomy.
Lip Contouring
Stop contouring with makeup! Injectables can achieve this for you with lasting results that don’t smudge or wash off. Shaping the lips and creating a more defined lip border are just some of the options available with lip injections. Some treatments can last up to 12 months, which definitely beats reapplying lip liner and highlighter to your lips every hour just to completely lose your look during an exceptional makeout session.
So if you’ve never had a Cupid’s bow and always wanted one, try lip injections. You’ll never have to draw them on with a lip pencil ever again.
Anti-Aging and Lip Lines
Vertical lip lines, also called “smoker’s lines”, rob us of our youthful look. The appearance of lines combined with their innate ability to literally thin the lips bring many of our patients through our doors. We have many options for treatment using a variety of lip injections which can be applied both in and around the lips. The results are more about lip restoration and rejuvenation with delightful results.
TYPES OF LIP INJECTIONS AND HOW THEY WORK
Erase collagen and silicone injections from your mind. Those were the old days. Results weren’t great and the risk of adverse reactions were very high compared to what we use today. Now, it’s all about FDA-approved BOTOX and hyaluronic acid dermal fillers. How do they work? Great question! Keep reading.
Hyaluronic Acid Lip Fillers
Bear with us while we geek out, because hyaluronic acid (HA) is our jam. No joke. HA is used in facial fillers, not just lip fillers, and carries little-to-no risk for most patients. How is this possible? Because HA occurs naturally in our bodies, reducing the risk of allergic reactions and other adverse effects found in older injections.
HA is a versatile moisture magnet, providing superior plumping with long-term results. HA filler gels vary in consistency; some are very thin (better for the under eyes and around the lips) and others are incredibly robust (hello, cheek augmentation!). We choose the right filler based on the treatment area and your desired outcome.
There are many fillers used for lips, but most are from the Juvederm and Restylane lines by Allergan, the maker of BOTOX, and Galderma, one of the most trusted names in dermatology. Each filler line offers several options for lip injections, including:
- Juvederm Ultra, suitable for lips, nasolabial folds, and marionette lines
- Juvederm Volbella, specially developed for use in and around the lips
- Restylane, versatile in uses and may sometimes be recommended in the lips
- Restylane Silk, the first filler designed exclusively for application in and around the lips
- Restylane Kysse, a more flexible lip filler offering even more natural-looking results
Which one is right for you? The only way to determine this is during your personalized consultation in our Park Ridge medical spa.
But you may not need a filler at all. You may benefit from a very basic BOTOX lip flip or, in some cases, a combination of the two. Your needs are unique and your treatment must be catered to your anticipated outcome.
The BOTOX Lip Flip
Even the name sounds fun! The BOTOX lip flip is more about lip projection and less about the size and shape. While you may think you need more volume in your lips, what you may benefit from is a little bit of projection instead. Some BOTOX strategically administered around the lips can achieve this with stunning results.
During your follow-up appointment to assess your lip filler results, we may agree that your lips need a little more to meet your expectations. In these cases, we may recommend a tiny bit of BOTOX over filler to finish off your new look.
