Why is it important to keep your age in mind when treating the lip area?
Many women in their thirties and up may benefit from hyaluronic fillers such as Restylane and Juvederm. These fillers can enhance the lips quickly and naturally, with minimal risk and downtime. Those with already full lips can benefit from a bit of definition around the lip borders; those with smaller lips may want to plump the red lip body itself, thereby creating a fuller pout. Maintaining a healthy-appearing smile is part of recapturing a youthful look, so fillers are also appropriate for women in their forties, fifties, and up. To that end, minimal lip augmentation, which involves lining the lip with Restylane or Juvederm filler, helps define the lip border and prevent lipstick from bleeding into fine creases and lines that creep into the lip. It’s important that the results of these treatments are within the range of what we expect to see for your age group. Most of us find it bizarre to see mature women with over-inflated lips or frozen smiles, which is why it is important to consult an experienced cosmetic physician.
