The complete lip injection guide for Torrance & Palos Verdes Locals
Are your lips thin or flat? You aren’t alone. Here are some tips on how to naturally make your lips look fuller:
– Exfoliate your dry lips. Dry lips look flat and dull. You can use a toothbrush, washcloth, or lip scrub and gently use a circular motion to rub them on your lips. This will naturally exfoliate your lips and also promotes circulation to temporarily plump up your lips!
– Hydrate your lips!
– Avoid dark lipstick, as it can make lips look smaller. With a flesh-toned pencil, trace right outside your natural lip line and fill your lips in with the pencil. Apply a creamy neutral lipstick in a similar shade and your lips will look fuller!
– Use a bit of highlighter or shimmery eye shadow where you lip dips in the middle to bring depth to your lips.
– Use a shiny neutral glass on the center of your top and bottom lips to reflect light and provide a 3D effect.
Many people try to make their lips look plumper with makeup and beauty tricks. Sometimes these beauty tips may work, but injectable fillers have long-lasting results.
Injectable fillers are used to help decrease the signs of aging, including shape or volume loss, downturned lips, and fine lines.
They also help increase the size, shape, and dimension of your lips in order to make them even and balanced. The fillers that we use on the lips are the same fillers we use on the face, so the area around the lips, the lips themselves, and the chin can be injected with fillers to create a symmetrical, balanced shape.
If you are looking to enhance the size or shape of your lips, then lip injections are right for you!
Our highly skilled medical professionals will use medical precision to artistically administer lip fillers with a series of small injections for a symmetric, smooth, and cohesive look.
The results will look natural and the fillers will be virtually undetectable. At Skin Works Medical Spa, we use a variety of fillers for lip injections, including Belotero, Juvederm, Volbella, or Restylane.
These fillers are partially composed of hyaluronic acid which is found naturally in all cells of the bod and keeps cells hydrated and plump. Hyaluronic acid can hold 1000 times its weight in water, so it produces instant volume when injected into the lips!
Treatment typically takes between 30 and 45 minutes and you can expect to see immediate results!
You will see an increase in the size or shape of your lips immediately! If you are prone to swelling or bruising, you may have temporary swelling or bruising immediately after the procedure for a few days.
We recommend avoiding working out or drinking alcohol the same day as your treatment in order to decrease the possibility of swelling. 1 to 3 days prior to your procedure, avoid taking fish oil, drinking alcohol, or using non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medication.
You can use Arnica to reduce your chances of bruising or swelling and use ice packs after treatment to reduce swelling.
Always remember to get your lip injections at least 2 to 3 weeks prior to any special event in case you experience bruising or swelling.
Results typically last between 3 and 9 months.
Most individuals only need one syringe to get optimal results. Once you achieve your optimal results, you can return to touch-up sessions as needed every 3 to 9 months.
Some individuals may require additional treatments in order to achieve their optimal shape or size, especially if you have very thin lips. If you don’t like your look for any reason, the water-based fillers we use are reversible! Discuss your treatment options with a board-certified doctor, like Dr. Matt Tahsini.
At Skin Works Medical Spa in Torrance, our skilled medical professionals will deliver results that enhance your appearance by artistically creating lips that feel and look natural when kissing, talking, or eating!
We also provide a free medical grade numbing agent prior to treatment. Your comfort is important to us and this will help take away any sensation you may feel.
