The Gold Standard in Dermal Fillers
At 8 West Clinic we are happy to offer our clients the gold standard in injectable dermal fillers. Using only the Restylane® family of hyaluronic acid fillers these are not only the safest but also the most widely used around the world. Restylane® is also the first hyaluronic acid filler to have been developed for facial contouring use. Restylane® contains a naturally-derived hyaluronic acid, a substance also found in the body's connective tissues. Hyaluronic acid binds with water molecules in the skin which creates volume to help achieve your perfect pout. Depending on the area you are looking to treat your injector will decide on the best filler to be used for your treatment. The Restylane® family of filler includes specialized formulas to be used to enhance facial contours, smooth out wrinkles and folds and the enhance the lips.
How Can You Achieve Your Perfect Pout?
Lip injections are performed to contour and enhance the lips and last about 4-6 months. Using a hyaluronic acid based dermal filler our expert injectors can help you achieve your goals by placing the filler in key areas other to help achieve the plump you are looking for:
- Vermillion (Your Lips!): This is the main region for dermal filler placement. By strategically placing dermal filler into this area your injector can help plump your lips making them either project forwards more or increasing the vertical height of the lip.
- Vermillion Border: Your injector may opt to place filler in your vermillion line in order to help give you a more defined lip border
- Cupid's Bow: If you are looking for a more prominent cupids bow then be sure to request this! Filler can also be used to de-accentuate your cupid's bow by filling in the space.
Botox with Lip Injections
Did you know that you can lift your lips with a little botox? Our best kept secret, depending on whether it is right for you adding very little botox to the area surrounding your lips will help flip the lip outward giving you more of a pout. This treatment lasts about 2 to 4 months and can also help correct a ''gummy smile''. We would love to meet you and discuss your lip augmentation goals.
