Fashions come, fashions go. I was a teenaged Goth in the 1980s and my hair was so stiff with hairspray that I should have been deemed a fire hazard. Every generation has their own style and we’ve since moved on from mullets and mohawks, with modern-day young people after big and bold in a different sense. Lip enhancements are in fashion and good lip fillers are essential in their quest for the perfect pout.
The Quest For Good Lip Fillers
The hunt for attractive, full-bodied lips is strewn with pitfalls. Women are seeking bigger lips, but not grossly inflated pouts. Unfortunately, celebrities and influencers have normalised overfilled and misshapen lips and Generation Z have seized upon that look without question. Of course, it’s up to each generation to choose their own beauty norms, but lip fillers were never meant to be used this way! This misrepresentation of a great treatment means that you might not even know that you can achieve a natural-looking pout with good lip fillers.
How Do Lip Fillers Work?
Lip fillers are made from a gel-like substance called hyaluronic acid (HA). This forms naturally in our bodies, cushioning our cells, hydrating the skin and providing additional structure for our organs. The HA in our bodies is identical to that which is used in lip fillers. The only difference is that in fillers HA is stabilised, so that when it’s inserted into the chosen area it can do the job it’s meant to do, enhancing and beautifying by absorbing massive amounts of water.
Good Lip Fillers Require Good Practitioners
It’s crucial that lip enhancements are carried out by expert practitioners to minimise complications and get the very best, natural-looking results.
I have been treating patients for years using HA fillers and have been trained in all the necessary skills. It can take years to learn how to place the filler so that it supports the lips and fills lip lines while remaining invisible to the naked eye, which means that good lip fillers should be the reserve of qualified and experienced experts.
A practitioner also needs a comprehensive knowledge of different lip filler products, so that they can choose the best one for a particular patient’s needs. Having the right concentration of HA is of primary importance, as it will affect the softness and smoothness of the result as well as the integration of HA into the tissues. The technology used to stabilise the HA will also impact the outcome.
Essentially, good lip fillers cannot be found on the cheap at non-specialist parlours. Comprehensive research, approval by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and safe delivery costs hike the prices up, meaning that quality stabilised products all come with a price tag. A bargain basement lip filler treatment probably won’t use premium products and is unlikely to give you the natural voluptuous lips you are looking for. When searching for good lip fillers, an expert is the only way.
