Five Ways to Plump Your Pout

Want luscious lips? Join the club! At one point or another, we all want to round out our lips for a more youthful appearance. Thankfully, in the year 2021, you have options for getting fuller lips like never before.

Here are five ways to plump your pout this new year:

Volumizing with lip filler

If you're looking for more volume to your lips, then a hyaluronic acid filler, commonly called lip filler, might be the best product for you. There are various types and thicknesses of fillers to fit your specific needs.

At Couture Med Spa, we have clients who want subtle lip volume and those who are looking for a lot of volume. Juvéderm Ultra, Vollure, and Restylane Kysse are all products that will produce a slight pout to your lips. Juvéderm Ultra and Restylane will provide more volume if that is your end goal.

Your provider will discuss your lip enhancement vision with you and decide which product will be best for you.

Treating lines around the lips with filler

Have you ever put on lipstick, and it just does not look good? Do you have lipstick coloring bleeding on the skin around your lips? Good nows! We can fill in those tiny fine lines around the mouth with hyaluronic acid fillers.

Those lines are called peri-oral rhytids, and they are a very common area to be treated. The products used are very smooth and delicate and will not provide volume to the lips but give a hydrated appearance. Juvéderm’s Volbella and Restylane Silk are great products to address these concerns. If you are looking for volume, these thinner products may not be for you but we have other options as well!

Filler for downward turn mouth

We often have clients who complain that they always look sad, even when they are not. They feel that the corners of their mouth appear “droopy.” This is a very treatable matter! We can place fillers near the edges of the mouth to pick the smile up.

Fillers placed strategically can build a structure to lift the smile, providing a less aged appearance to the lips. This will not give the lips volume, but it will turn that frown upside down! Juvéderm Ultra Plus and Restylane Lyft are my favorite products to life those concerns of the mouth and look very natural in the area.

Lip flip with Botox or Dysport

The coined term “lip flip” has recently been a popular request from my clients. A lip flip is achieved by injecting Botox or Dysport into the muscle around the lips. This does not provide volume to the lips, but it will slightly relax that muscle around the mouth to give a slight pout to the lip.

Botox or Dysport in this area can also prevent the muscle from making exaggerated motions causing lines to form around the mouth, it works as a great preventative measure for peri-oral rhytids. Many of our clients will do lip flips in between their lip fillers to extend their results.

Couture Med Spa’s Eye and Lip Serum

For clients who are nervous about injectables, an excellent hydrating cream is a good alternative. Simply use it around the mouth to plump the skin and help smooth the area, giving a youthful appearance. Couture’s eye and lip serum include hydrating hyaluronic to help moisturize and plump around the lips. This is also great to use after your lip fillers to enhance the effects.
