One of the most popular medical spa treatments is lip fillers. Thanks to celebrities like Kylie Jenner, Chrissy Tiegen, Ellie Goulding, Angelina Jolie and Selena Gomez, each year there is an increase in clients who are looking to enhance their lips. What was once something sought after only by women is now something men are seeking out too. In the United States, 5% of the total amount of those who receive lip fillers are men. Let me break down for you what lip augmentation options we provide to our clients here at Majestic Aesthetics and Wellness.
The most common reason someone seeks out a lip filler and desires a lip augmentation is because they either want their upper lip or lower lip to be fuller or some are looking to enhance both lips. Whatever it is you’re looking for, let’s talk through your top two options here at Majestic. Using hyaluronic acid is the best option for your body, keep reading and you’ll know we chose these top-of-the-line products.
Juvéderm
Juvéderm Ultra XC and Juvéderm Volbella XC given in a single treatment is just what you may be wanting. Juvéderm is an incredible option! Juvéderm lasts an average of nine months. Juvéderm is primarily used to enhance your lips but it’s also a great option to even out the look of one’s lips. Juvéderm is FDA approved and can also be used to fill in cheeks or around the mouth. It’s non-surgical and reverses the effects of aging! Juvéderm is not just safe, it’s also long lasting. Though the average is nine months, many clients have had their fillers last for over two years. With all that’s available on the market today, Juvéderm is a top option. Some patients experience tenderness or swelling afterward, and that is nothing to think twice about.
Restylane
Restylane (fully approved by the Federal Drug Administration) is a filler that that was specifically designed for the lips. Restylane Silk leaves your lips firm and supple, adding fullness and leaving you looking younger. Since its creation, Restylane now also helps with acne scars, dark circles, deep wrinkles and can add volume to your cheeks (but we will save all that for another blog). Restylane may give you a little swelling or tenderness after your filler is injected but it won’t last long. Restylane is a non-animal filler, and pairs perfectly with the hyaluronic acid that is present in our bodies. Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance that is already in your body. When it is injected in your skin, it pairs with what your body naturally has and brings back volume to, in this case, your lips.
As mentioned earlier, lip fillers were once something only sought after by young women in their 20’s, but as time goes on, I see clients coming in that are in their 30’s, 40’s and 50’s.
