We all want Angelina Jolie’s famous luscious lips, well at least us with smaller, thin lips. Having a fuller pout is associated with youth, sexiness, and a healthy look. I know I’m not the only one who wants your red lipstick to actually look sexy, and not like you have a little red pencil line! Filling the lips has always been something I’ve wanted to try, and I’m finally in a place at Millefiori where I trust the injector and her expertise (super important!)Natural is the key, and my #1 concern, which is why Millefiori in downtown Melbourne offers multiple types of fillers for different concerns. Injectable dermal fillers, such as Juvederm and Belotero, are the most commonly used methods for lip enhancement. Products like these contain hyaluronic acid (a natural substance found in the body) and give the most natural look while increasing volume in your lips. Older methods for lip enhancement include collagen, fat injections and implants, all which aren’t used as often or at all due the unnatural results and greater risk of side effects. Using a hyaluronic acid filler improve the appearance of your lips by adding shape, structure, and volume. Juvederm typically last around 6 months in the lips, due to constant movement, and can last longer in other areas of the face.
When you arrive at Millefiori for your treatment, the first thing we address in your private consultation is what you like, and what you want to change. Depending on your comments, we chose the best product to address your concerns. Whether it be fine “smoker” lines above the upper lip, creating a fuller upper or lower lip, or making more of a defined shape, Iris can correct and address these with one visit, giving instant results. Iris Kelley, the Board Certified PA on staff will ice the area to numb the area topically for a few minutes, and then go straight for the kisser! You will notice a difference immediately, but we suggest doing the procedure a week before anything special due to swelling and possible bruising.
Juvederm is priced per syringe, so having a complimentary consultation at Millefiori, located in downtown Melbourne, is the best way to receive a customized quote and more information on what is right for you.
The love the skin your in Melbourne. Till next time!
