What is a Russian Lips?

Discover

Why Russian lip filler technique is better?

Using this technique, the lips will resemble a Russian doll with a heart shape and extra volume near the lip centre. Ideal for individuals who are the first time to try lip fillers because of their natural-looking results. It only raises the lips and does not create dramatic volume.

Selecting a trustworthy injector is important as the technique requires a high degree of skill and strategic placement of the filler to create precise angles and depths.

Benefits:

  • Adds height, plumpness, and fullness to the lips.
  • Address volume loss in the lips due to ageing.
  • Create lip balance and correct uneven contour.
  • Boost confidence

The procedure
Enhanced Natural Lips
What do I need to know?

The Russian lip filler treatment can improve the lip’s height and shape by raising and volumising the area of your lips. A small amount of filler will be injected upright from the bottom to the edges of your lips. It helps lift and enhance your lips by properly putting the fillers into the lip tissue. The outcomes are more realistic.

Lifted, Balanced Lips
What is the difference between Russian lips and traditional lip filler techniques?

Both the standard and Russian lip fillers can give extraordinary satisfaction based on your facial features. The Russian method is an ideal choice for individuals with small faces and delicate features because it provides a mild boost that avoids an asymmetrical appearance. The technique can increase the lip height without making the “duck lips” result. The beautifully defined cupid’s bow is a result of raising the upper lip.

On the other hand, traditional fillers are more effective on people with longer chins and noses, because they provide greater volume and balance, so the face will look proportionate.

The standard fillers create a plumper and fuller look, while Russian lip fillers make the lips appear slightly larger and higher. Although Russian lip fillers are more costly because of the time and specific ingredients needed, most people find the expense justified because of the amazing results.

The Key Steps
What can I expect during the treatment?

Your injector will review your medical history and expected outcomes during a consultation before they start the procedure. Your lips and the surrounding area will be cleansed to avoid the chance of infections. A topical anaesthetic will be applied to ease discomfort. Your doctor will inject hyaluronic acid filler downward from the lip border using a tiny needle. This will add height and definition to the lips. Your doctor will slightly massage the treated area to make sure that the fillers are applied evenly. You may feel some swelling and pain after the injections. Your doctor will then provide aftercare instructions.

Quick Lip Boost
How long does the process last?

The process usually takes 30 to 45 minutes, you just need to add up a little time to let the numbing cream settle before the treatment starts.

Safety And Comfortability
Is the Russian lip technique hurtful?

A Russian lip therapy uses tiny needles to inject the filler. Sometimes getting injectables can be hurtful. Your doctor will apply a numbing lotion before your filler injection to help you feel comfortable throughout the process. This method is injected shallow deep and has a lesser pain compared to conventional fillers.

Safe, Natural Enhancement
Is it safe?

The Russian Lips treatment is safe, especially when done by a trained expert. The ingredient typically used is hyaluronic acid which is naturally present in our body. Because of this natural substance, there is a lower chance of getting the infection. Complications like lumps and unevenness can also be reduced.

Temporary side effects like bruising, swelling, and minor pain may be experienced. Choosing an experienced injector is crucial to prevent rare or serious complications.

Ong-Lasting Lip Lift
When can I have another Russian Lip injection?

The procedure can be done every 6 to 12 months. It will depend on how long the results will last and how the fillers will be processed by your body. By this time, most patients start to lose the volume of their lips as the hyaluronic acid slowly breaks down over time.

Reversible Lip Enhancement
Is it reversible?

Yes, the treatment is reversible. There is this enzyme called hyaluronidase that can be used to dissolve the existing fillers in your lips when you are not happy with the outcome or change your mind.

48-Hour Kiss Wait
When can I kiss after my Russian lip fillers?

Give the filler time to settle for at least 48 hours before doing any activities. Avoid putting pressure on your lips to lessen the risk of filler movement.

24-Hour Makeup Pause
Can I wear make-up after my Russian lip fillers?

It is best that you wait until 24 hours after your Russian lip filler before putting on any makeup or lip products to avoid infection or irritation.

Am I suitable
Is Russian lip fillers good for me?

Factors to consider

Russian lip fillers are ideal for the first-timer in lip augmentation because they can be applied softly for a natural-looking result. If you want a heart-shaped pout and more volume in the middle of your lips, this is a great option. Unlike traditional fillers, this technique does not add too much fullness.

If you are pregnant, have allergic reactions to filler’s ingredients, or have a mouth infection like canker sores or herpes, Russian lip filler should be avoided.

Consult your doctor to determine if you are a good candidate for Russian Lip fillers.

  • Incorrect injection techniques may result in a lumpy or uneven look.
  • Although rare, the risk of infections at the injection site may develop.
