Russian Lips

Achieve the pout of your dreams with one of the most exciting beauty trends in aesthetics: Russian Lips. The Russian Lips technique is named after the lips you often see on Russian stacking dolls – or “matryoshka” and “babushka”, to give their correct name. Using special filler and artistry, our doctor accentuates your “cupid’s bow” by adding volume and lift to the centre of your lips. This creates an attractive heart-like shape, which remains relatively flat to the face.

While this “tweakment” is inspired by dolls, the effect looks very natural and stunning. Procedures are also safe and non-surgical, leaving you with a beautiful outcome and only minimal downtime.

During your no-obligation consultation, our doctor will discuss with you your goals, and help you decide whether Russian Lips is a suitable tweakment for you.

The Russian Lips is a simple, minimally invasive procedure that uses injectable filler to achieve its unique effect. Filler treatments are one of the most popular treatments at Vie Aesthetics. They are often used to restore lost volume to areas of the face or body, and is sometimes known as a “liquid facelift”. However, filler can also be used to reshape parts of the face, such as the chin, nose and lips.

With Russian Lips, the doctor administers filler in a very specific way. The product is injected vertically into the lips, and then spread outwards to widen and lift the lip shape. Much of the filler is injected into the central area to create the necessary emphasis. Fillers comprise of hyaluronic acid, which is a natural substance that is created from skin and connective tissue. This is naturally broken down by your skin over time. Results are temporary and the products completely safe.

Note that Russian Lips tweakments typically require more filler than a standard Lips Augmentation with Filler procedure. However, the main goal with Russian Lips is to heighten the lips rather than add excessive plumpness. For this reason, it’s often regarded as a good option if you’re new to lips treatments and want to create a striking look without being overly radical.
