Are your lips ready for the New Year?

The holidays are here! Between mistletoe, New Year kisses, and all those holiday pictures, you might be paying more attention to your lips than usual. If your lips lack the perfect pout, you might be interested in lip injections! Lip injections are a quick and easy way to rewind the clock and give your face a more youthful look. Now you have more options than ever for getting the fuller lips you’ve always wanted. Here are a few ways lip filler might help define your signature look this holiday season! We want 2022 to be the year of you!

Volumizing with Filler

LUX Med Spa offers a variety of cosmetic injectables, but fillers are one of our most commonly requested services. If you’re interested in plumping your lips and would like to see them slightly, or drastically, fuller, lip filler might be an excellent option for you. 

The experts at LUX will help you find the perfect filler and volume for you. This treatment is highly customizable. Our talented medical staff will help you find the suitable filler with the exact consistency you’re looking for.  Our products can be customized to give you a slight pout or a robust look! 

At LUX, it’s our goal to enhance your natural beauty. At your consultation, you’ll be able to ask questions and together we can design a special treatment to help you reach your optimal results. 

Lip filler for fine lines

Have you ever struggled to keep lipstick looking crisp along the outline of your lips? Do you find yourself avoiding the bright colors of lipstick because it tends to bleed to the skin around your lips? We all feel more put together when our makeup is in place, and no one wants to look like their lipstick was applied haphazardly. Unfortunately, as we age, it’s common for fine lines and wrinkles to form around the edges of our mouth, making it easy for lipstick to spread away from the outline of our lips. The good news, LUX has a solution! 

Those lines are called perioral rhytids and can be treated! Many people associate these lines with smoking, but they are common even with non-smokers. Whatever the reason, we can make them disappear. Lip fillers are ideal for addressing these concerns. Our products are incredibly smooth and perfect for the delicate area around the edges of the mouth. 

A common misbelief is that lip injections are only for increasing the volume of the lips. This isn’t true; many people use lip filler to treat the fine lines around the mouth while not increasing the volume of their lips. Treated lips can look hydrated and smooth but maintain your average lip volume. This can be a stand-alone treatment, or you can have these lines treated in addition to plumping your lips! 

Filler for downturned mouth

As we age, it’s common for lines and wrinkles to develop around the mouth. Because we can’t avoid using our mouths to eat and speak, this is one of the first places to develop wrinkles. Some patients develop an interest in lip injections simply because the corners of their mouths appear droopy. Many women feel these downturned corners give them an appearance of being sad even when they are not; it can make their features look harsher. Downturned corners are very treatable! Your injection specialist can place fillers near the edges of the mouth to give your smile a perk!

Our highly trained specialists can strategically place your filler to build a structure to lift the smile, providing a more youthful appearance to the lips. However, many people prefer to skip the filler entirely and have Botox injected into the muscles around the lips. This tiny injection provides no filler, so your lip volume will stay the same, but it will slightly relax the muscles that surround your lips. This can give a slight pout to your lips. 

Botox in this area can also prevent the muscle from making exaggerated motions which are common culprits for causing lines to form around the mouth. This is also highly requested as a preventative measure to prevent deep lines from forming. These procedures can literally turn your frown upside down!
