Restore Lip Volume & Shape Using Dermal Fillers - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Fine lines around the mouth and thinning lips are an inevitable result of ageing. Lost volume and structure can easily be recreated with dermal filler treatment, which will restore the lips and give them a natural, youthful look. Fillers will enhance the mouth area and give definition and shape, correcting any asymmetry and restoring lost volume.

Looking at our lips we might notice vertical lines, these are also called smokers' lines or lipstick lines and they start forming when we repeatedly pucker up the lips when smoking, drinking through straws and pouting. Any repetitive movements will eventually show on the face as fine lines and wrinkles. Loss of volume also has an effect on the lips and as we get older this can make the lips look thinner and flatter.

Some of us were born with naturally thin lips, and others have lips that have become thinner through ageing. As we age, our collagen production slows down and this can cause the lips to lose volume. Thinner lips can make us look less vibrant and older than we actually are, but dermal fillers will give us back the volume, giving us the luscious lips we would like to have. So if we've always had thin lips, or they've just become that way with age, dermal fillers can restore them.

Lip lines are the fine vertical wrinkles that develop just above the lips that show up when we purse our mouth when smoking or drinking through straws, but they start to become a more permanent fixture as we get older. We use light botox treatment to treat these pucker lines.

Smile lines are also known as nasolabial folds and they are the folded wrinkles that run from the side of the nose to the corner of the mouth. Dermal fillers are ideal for smoothing these lines away.

Marionette lines run from the corners of the mouth to the chin and are similar to smile lines. Dermal filler can correct these lines.

Dermal fillers are a perfect cosmetic treatment to enhance the lips. There are many people who are unhappy with their lips, wanting more volume, a better shape, more definition of the border or to have more definition on the cupid's bow. A good cosmetic doctor will give you subtle, natural-looking results without them looking like they've had any treatment.

Dermal filler injections are completely controlled, letting the client choose if they want a subtle, in-between or more dramatic look. Lip fillers can prevent and improve the signs of ageing, leaving us happy to enjoy younger-looking, plumper lips for longer.

Add Volume & Enhance Your Lips With Dermal Filler - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

The lips are a main focal point of the face, but by the time we reach thirty our lips can lose volume and become thinner, they can start to get noticeable lines and lose their definition. All this can become even more obvious as we age, making us look older than we are.

Over time the lip volume depletes and there's a loss of contour, leaving the lips looking thinner and flatter. Dermal fillers are an ideal way to enhance the lip volume and redefine the lip shape. It's a cosmetic treatment suitable for both women and men who want to increase their lip size, or for those who aren't happy with their naturally thin lips. Fillers are also a good treatment for correcting lip creases, softening the lines, preventing lipstick bleeds and enhancing the area around the mouth.

When you have decided to have lip filler treatment you should ask the doctor how the filler injections can improve your lips, making sure they know what look you're hoping to achieve. If you're nervous about discomfort, then we can apply a topical numbing cream to the injection area, making your treatment more comfortable. After cleansing and disinfecting the mouth area, the doctor will inject the dermal filler precisely into the chosen areas, using an ultra-fine needle. There'll be only a minimal amount of discomfort and maybe some slight bruising.

* Lip filler treatments usually take less than an hour
* The results are visible immediately
* After treatment a cold compress on the lips can help to prevent swelling
* After your treatment, your lips should feel natural
* Lipstick or other lip products are best avoided immediately after your treatment

You don't necessarily need lots of volume to give you beautiful results as some lips only need a tiny amount of filler to make a big difference. As we get older we naturally lose hyaluronic acid making the lips shrink. A cosmetic doctor can treat the lips, restoring them and making them look like the lips we had in our youth. Lip enhancement treatments will shape the smile, restore the volume and achieve beautiful, fresh and fuller lips.

A good cosmetic doctor will look at your whole face, and keep your lips in proportion, making sure you keep that all important natural look. We would all like beautiful lips with definition and shape to give us a great smile and to compliment the natural beauty of our face.

Erase Smokers Lip Lines With Dermal Filler - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

If we feel like we're beginning to look older it's only natural that we might like to reverse the effects of ageing. We will all get some facial wrinkles as we age, especially fine lines and wrinkles around the mouth. Anyone can get lip lines, and things like repetitive movement, sun exposure, smoking and genetics will speed up the process. As their skin is thinner, women tend to get lip and mouth wrinkles more often than men.

The lips are an important part of facial beauty, the shape and appearance of the lips draw the eye, and full, plump lips have become increasingly identified with both youth and beauty. As we get older the natural breakdown of collagen and elastin fibres causes the lip volume to deplete, making them look thinner and flatter.  Many beauty products claim to halt the effects of ageing but there's no such thing and unfortunately our skin will continuously age regardless, but there are some ways to lessen lip lines and wrinkles.

Exfoliate

A natural way to lessen lip wrinkles is to exfoliate once a day. This will take away dead skin cells and the wrinkles will appear shallower.
Lip balm
When the lips are kept moist and hydrated it helps to prevent them from drying and wrinkling. Also consider using balm with sunscreen, when out in the sun.
Diet
Include food rich in antioxidants, such as leafy vegetables and citrus fruits and fatty omega 3 foods like fish or fish oil supplements into your diet.
Facial exercises
Massaging the face will increase blood circulation and tightens muscles and tissues around the mouth.
Water
Drink plenty of water to replace lost moisture to keep the skin hydrated and plump.

Injectable dermal fillers plump up thin lips, smoothing out vertical lines around the edges of the lips. The filler stimulates collagen production and encourages new tissue growth in and around the injected area. Over time, the body absorbs the gel carrier, while collagen continues to grow at the injection site, replacing the gel with the natural tissue.

Benefits of Lip Injections:

• Safe and non invasive
• Quick and effective results
• Adding volume to thin lips will improve the skin around the mouth
• Minimal recovery time and side effects
• Can resume routine activities almost immediately after treatment

Lip fillers offer a quick and effective way to withstand the ageing process. The results are immediate and side effects are almost none existent, although some people may very occasionally experience slight redness, mild swelling and some tenderness after treatment.

Add Volume to Your Lips With Dermal Fillers - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Unfortunately over time we lose volume in our lips and gain fine lines around the borders meaning they no longer look as youthful as they once did. We begin to notice that the vermilion borders and the cupid's bow are becoming less defined and the philtrum ridge between the nose and mouth starts to flatten out.

A lip enhancement treatment can improve your overall facial appearance, not just the lips. Filler treatment is a cosmetic procedure that will enhance your lips giving them a fuller, plumper look and smooth out any fine lines and wrinkles around the mouth area, giving it a more youthful look.

It's wise to always do your research when choosing somebody to enhance your lips, as turning ordinary lips into beautiful lips is a skill that requires a lot of practice and ability. It's essential that you choose a qualified specialist cosmetic practitioner who has lots of experience in performing injectable treatments, one who combines artistry and expert ability with every treatment they perform. At Selston Cosmetic Clinic we will aim to give you a subtle lip enhancement which will show off the natural shape of the lip, reducing the asymmetry and giving the lip a well-defined border.

The practitioner will perform the lip filler treatment by injection using an ultra fine needle, restoring volume to areas where it's been lost due to ageing, or to lips which are naturally thin. Dermal filler contains hyaluronic acid which is ideal for lip treatments, as it's a naturally occurring protein that's found in the human body and this means that side effects are very rare.

As the lips are a very sensitive part of the face, it's normal to feel slightly uncomfortable during the lip enhancement treatment. However, dermal fillers do contain a numbing agent to lessen any discomfort during the procedure, and we also apply a local anaesthetic cream to the lips, twenty to thirty minutes before the treatment takes place.

Unfortunately, dermal filler lip enhancements are not a permanent solution, because over time the body will gradually break down the fillers and they will naturally disperse back into the body, so eventually you'll need to top up the filler if you want to keep the look. The results of most dermal fillers will typically last about six to eight months and the practitioner will let you know how soon you'll need to return for a top up treatment.

Restore Lost Volume In Your Lips With Dermal Fillers - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

None of us have perfect lips throughout our lifetime, so if you feel self-conscious that your lips have become thinner or they seem to disappear when you smile, then a lip augmentation might be the answer. It's an ideal treatment for those with thin lips or those who think having fuller lips will help to balance out their face.

If you're disheartened by a gradual loss in volume in the lips, or you'd prefer more definition in the shape or maybe you want a more defined border, then a cosmetic treatment using a small amount of filler can quickly rectify all your concerns. As we get older, we can notice a loss of plumpness in the lips, but this lost volume can easily be restored with dermal filler treatment.

Lip augmentation is one of the most popular treatments at Selston Cosmetic Clinic. This treatment will smooth out the fine lines and wrinkles around the mouth area and can shape and add volume to the lips, all helping to create the perfect overall look to enhance your facial features.

Wrinkles
A lip filler injection will boost the hydration levels to the upper and lower lips, This will hydrate the lips as well as smoothing the fine lines and wrinkles.

Thin lips
Some of us have naturally thin lips or else they lose volume as we age. A non-permanent filler made from hyaluronic acid can boost volume in the lip area. Hyaluronic acid is a natural ingredient which gets broken down by the body over time, and can also be dissolved if you don't like the results.

Mouth and lip lines
The vertical lines around the mouth are a particular problem for women as it can cause lipstick bleed. Dermal fillers can soften these lines, enhancing the mouth area and giving it a more youthful look.

Shape
The edges of the lips will become less defined as we get older, as over time, the collagen and elastin breaks down and the lips lose their pouting shape, and lines begin to develop around the lips.

Undefined lips
Filler added to the vermilion border, improve the definition and minimize lip bleed and give a better outline.

Lip augmentation treatment will:

• Increase the volume
• Improve the outline and definition
• Achieve a more symmetrical look
• Enhance the contours of the lips
• Reduce lines and wrinkles 

Lip augmentation is a quick procedure with almost no downtime. Any side effects such as swelling, bruising or redness are temporary and will resolve within a few days. Any lumps or bumps can easily be gently massaged out and will settle within a couple of days. After filler treatment, you should keep your lips moisturised and use a moisturising sun block.

Restore Ageing Lips with Dermal Filler at Selston Cosmetic Clinic - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Some people have lips that are naturally thin or they're sagging and thinning due to ageing. As we get older, our lips will develop fine lines and wrinkles and naturally lose their shape and size. We all aspire to have lips that are perfectly sculptured and sensuous, with enough substance and volume to make them look youthful.

A lip enhancement is a cosmetic procedure that will add more volume, substance and definition to the lips. A lip filler procedure can not only enhance your lips, but it can easily improve your overall appearance by balancing and restoring your face perfectly, with full and flattering lips.

The thought of having dermal fillers injected into the lips can sometimes make people nervous, but our fully trained, experienced practitioner, Dr Bassi, who has a vast experience in injectable treatments, will discuss the process and what you want at your consultation. His ultimate aim is to make sure that all of his clients leave the clinic looking and feeling their very best.

Dermal fillers can improve the lips by adding shape, structure and volume. They can compensate for the ageing process by smoothing wrinkles and correcting the smoker's lines around the mouth. Lip augmentation treatment can give your lips the outline and definition that time has destroyed, enhancing thin, ageing or asymmetrical lips, by adding volume, definition, lifting the corners of the mouth and reducing smoker's lines.

Slight lip enhancement for the mature lady, to suit her face and age. 

Dermal fillers are ideal for lip plumping as:

• The fillers are uniquely formulated to give your lips fullness and definition
• The injections are completely controlled, and you can decide if you want a subtle, dramatic, or in-between look
• Fillers provide natural looking results with just one treatment
• Lip injections allow you to correct unbalanced or uneven lips
• Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance found in the body and the most common dermal fillers today are hyaluronic acid based. 

The nice thing about lip fillers is how quickly you'll notice the difference; the results are almost immediate. Following the injections, you may have some minor swelling, but once it wears down the effects of the fillers are easy to see, and you won't have to wait weeks to see your new lips. Lip filler treatments get excellent results and last a considerable amount of time, but they aren't permanent and will need repeating.

Enhance Your Lips With Dermal Fillers - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

It's important to keep our lips looking good because they are one of the main focal points of the face. We can keep our lips in great condition all year round, we don't have to wait for a special occasion to pamper them, so if we're not happy with the look of our lips, or the cold weather has left them dry and chapped, we don't have to despair, there are solutions.

Dermal fillers can enhance the lips and the area around the mouth, giving it a more youthful look. If you're worried about dry, chapped lips or maybe you're unhappy with their size or shape, there's expert help available to help you get them back into a beautiful condition. 

The delicate skin on the lips is very susceptible to harsh weather and they need extra care to keep them in peak condition:

• Exfoliate the lips - Removing dead skin from the lips will keep them smooth, making it easier to apply lipstick. To exfoliate, use a soft toothbrush and Vaseline to brush over the lips once a week.
• Dry lips - If you have dead skin on your lips, try not to lick or pick at them. Use lip balm to keep them hydrated, as licking your lips will dry them out more, and picking at any dead skin can lead to bleeding.
• Longer lasting lipstick - Putting a little powder foundation on your lips and then blotting, will help keep the lipstick on your lips for longer. Dust a little translucent powder over your lips, then apply another coat of lipstick.
• Lipstick - If you're going to wear lipstick, make sure you exfoliate your lips as any crust or dead skin on your lips becomes instantly noticeable.

Your lips might be too thin; either through age or genetics, you may have smokers lines around them or maybe they aren't symmetrical; all these things can lower your self-confidence. Lip size and shape can easily be enhanced using dermal fillers; they will add volume, giving a fuller appearance to your lips. Sometimes, just a small amount of filler can make all the difference, and you can get beautiful results, without necessarily adding lots of volume.

Dermal fillers will soften the lines and prevent lipstick bleeds. This treatment enhances the area around the mouth, giving it a more youthful look. The treatment can sometimes make people nervous, as women imagine themselves coming out of the clinic with over inflated lips, putting many women off lip treatments, but if you have your fillers done at a reputable clinic, then this isn't the reality, because a reputable clinic will always discuss your desired outcome at your consultation.

Replace Lost Volume in Your Lips - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Over time, the volume of our lips will deplete, leaving them with a thinner, flatter appearance. We aren't all blessed with naturally full lips, many of us need a little help to achieve the fullness that we want.

The amount of dermal filler needed varies from person to person, as someone with very thin lips would need more than someone with lips that are already quite naturally plump. Of course, everyone has different ideas about how much volume they would like to add to their lips.

Filler doesn't usually change the shape of the lips to a great degree, it actually enhances the volume and voluptuousness of the lips, but it can help to elevate the corners of the mouth to create a slightly happier and relaxed look and not having the 'down in the mouth' look that sometimes comes with ageing.

A lip enhancement treatment using dermal fillers is a quick and safe way to give you fuller lips with a natural freshness, and it can also minimise fine lines and wrinkles along the edges of the lips. Most people who are thinking about a lip enhancement procedure want fuller lips that are smooth, plump, wrinkle-free and youthful looking.

Having dermal fillers injected into the lips can sometimes make people nervous, they worry that they'll get massively inflated lips, but this isn't the reality. If you have always dreamed of full, sensuous lips, then Doctor Bassi at Selston Cosmetic Clinic can help you to get beautiful natural looking lips which will suit you and your face. We can adjust the amount of lip filler to suit the need of each client.

Once the dermal filler gets injected, you will see an instant result, with fuller, well-defined, contoured lips. The fillers used are hyaluronic acid based, which is a natural part of the body, meaning the risk of an adverse reaction to the procedure is very small. Changes in the lip shape can create fullness and can also correct asymmetry. Dermal fillers for the lips are one of the most popular aesthetic treatments available and are a very quick and easy way to dramatically improve your look.

A reputable clinic will always discuss what you do, and what you don't want at your consultation. Dr Bassi, is our fully trained, very experienced, specialist cosmetic doctor with over 10 years experience in injectable treatments. The effects typically last around 6-9 months. After that you'll need more injections to top-up the volume of your lips.

Erase Unsightly Wrinkles & Smokers Lines on Your Lips - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Wrinkles always seem to show up in the wrong places. We tend to focus on someones eyes or mouth during a conversation, and unfortunately those are the areas where wrinkles show up first. Even before we start getting old, signs of ageing will show on our face a lot sooner than we'd like, especially around the mouth and lower face.

As we age, lip creases and lip lines will begin to appear as the skin's elasticity starts breaking down, making your lipstick bleed into your lip wrinkles and ruining your smile. When we repeatedly make the same facial expressions, it can cause lip wrinkles to form. Things like pursing the lips, smoking, eating and excessive sun exposure can break down collagen and elastin in the skin, and over time these things can all cause fine lines around the mouth and upper lip.

Lips come in all sorts of different shapes and sizes;

• Full Lips - Full and sensuous, both on the upper and lower lips which are usually symmetrical
• Wide Lips - Wide lips cover a good part of the lower half of the face
• Bow Lips - The highest point of the lips features a double-curve commonly known as a cupid’s bow, which resembles the bow of Cupid, the Roman God of Love
• Round Lips - are small but full, with a heart shape centre top lip

Lip creases, also called lipstick lines or smoker’s lines, are those fine lines that start to appear around our lips as we age. These vertical lines on the lips are especially problematic for women, especially when the lip lines cause lipstick to bleed into the lips. Over time, we lose collagen and the skin becomes lax, we also lose fat which contributes to thinning lips, which makes the lip lines and wrinkles more visible. 

Although natural ageing plays a part in forming lip lines, the good news is that we can do something about it. At the Selston Cosmetic Clinic we've had fantastic results using lip fillers to banish those lip creases and add volume. Dr Bassi is a fully trained cosmetic practitioner in advanced filler techniques, and he tailors every treatment to suit each client. He has performed thousands of injectable dermal lip filler treatments and he has over 10 years experience as a specialist cosmetic practitioner.

Unfortunately, not everyone is born with beautiful luscious lips, but if you are looking to improve your pout and erase your lip lines, then lip filler can give you what the gene pool didn't.

Dermal Filler For Beautiful Enhanced Lips at Selston - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

If you're dissatisfied with the way your mouth or lips look, then you’re not alone. Many of us dislike our smile lines, the marionette creases, the lip shape and smoker's lines. As we get older, our face starts to lose volume and elasticity, making parts of our faces, such as the lips, look flatter and thinner.

Lip augmentation treatment can;

• Add more volume to thin lips
• Balance out uneven lips
• Create a pronounced cupids bow
• Define and shape the lip border
• Reduce fine smokers lines

Lip fillers enhance the lip volume for those people who are unhappy with the size or shape of their lips. We might want to balance out the upper and bottom lip proportions, or feel self-conscious that the lip appears to disappear when we speak or smile. The lip fillers are made up of hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in the body, and this helps the skin keep its softness and moisture, while increasing the volume.

The natural shape and structure of your lips will influence the shape and volume that the practitioner can achieve. Extra volume on lips which are already full usually gives great results, however this might not look as good on thin lips. We also have to consider the age of the client, and visualise what will look good on a young woman might look out-of-place on the more mature woman. The younger client often go for a fuller pout, where older women want a bit of volume, as well as rejuvenation of the area around the lips for a more natural result.

There are many ways to enhance your lips, depending on what you want the result to look like, and you and the practitioner will decide which look will suit your face.

At your appointment your practitioner can inject;

• Both lips
• Add volume into either the top lip or the bottom lip
• Plump up both lips and the vermillion border
• Enhance the cupid's bow

Women of all ages come to Selston to have their lips enhanced, with the younger women usually wanting a fuller looking lip, while the more mature women usually opting for a more subtle look. As we age, the upper and lower lips become less full, the cupid’s bow can become flatter, there's less definition on the borders and the mouth can start to droop downwards at the corners.

One of the most common reasons that clients come to see Dr Bassi at Selston Cosmetic Clinic is because they are unhappy with their lips. Dr Bassi can enhance their size and shape with dermal fillers, giving the lips greater volume and a fuller appearance.

Enhance Your Lips With Dermal Filler - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield.

If you feel conscious that your lips have become thinner or that they disappear when you smile, then a lip augmentation might be the answer. It's a great treatment for those with thin lips or those who think having full lips will help to balance their face. Dermal filler injected into the lips will help them to look fuller by increasing the volume, which will make them look bigger and plumper.

Lip augmentation will :

• Increase lip volume
• Achieve a symmetrical look
• Enhance lip contours
• Improve the lip outline and definition
• Reduce lines and wrinkles from around the mouth

Lip augmentation is one of the most popular treatments at Selston Cosmetic Clinic. It works to smooth out the fine lines and wrinkles around the mouth area and to shape and add volume to the lips, all helping to create the perfect overall look to enhance your facial features.

Wrinkles
Lips can become crepey and covered in fine lines. A lip filler injection to the upper and lower lips will boost hydration levels. This will hydrate the lips as well as smoothing the wrinkles.

Mouth and lip lines
Women have a problem with vertical lines around the mouth which cause lipstick bleeds and these are usually caused by genetics, smoking or sun exposure. With dermal filler we can soften these lines, leaving the area around the mouth enhanced, giving it a more youthful look.

Undefined lips
Lip filler added to the vermilion border, will give an outline, improve definition and minimize lip bleed.

Thin lips
Some of us are born with naturally thin lips or they lose volume as we age. A non-permanent filler made from hyaluronic acid can boost the lip area. Hyaluronic acid is a natural ingredient which gets broken down by the body over time, and can also be dissolved if you don't like the results.

Shape
The older we get, the more chance that the edge of the lips will become less defined. Over time, the collagen and elastin breaks down and the lips lose their pouting shape, and lines begin to develop around the lips.

It’s a fast procedure with almost no downtime. Any side effects such as swelling, bruising or redness are temporary and resolve within a few days and any lumpiness can easily be gently massaged out and will settle within a couple of days. After lip filler treatment, keep your lips moisturised and use a moisturising sun block.

At Selston, Dr Bassi has over 10 years experience as a specialist cosmetic practitioner and has performed thousands of injectable treatments with outstanding results which are specific to you.

Lip Augmentation at Reputable Clinics - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

When your lips are full and shapely, they can seem more kissable and attractive. Fuller lips can also make you look younger, as thin lips are often a sign of ageing. Lots of people today are having lip augmentation at various places, but, when deciding to have lip fillers you must do your research and find a reputable practitioner.

In the past few years, many newspaper and magazine articles have written about lip filler treatments that have gone wrong. Some stories are down to a number of celebrities who have plumped up their lip size to way beyond natural. A prime example is the TV actress Lesley Ash, who in 2002 had her lips injected with liquid silicone, which plumped her lips up to such extremes that it changed her appearance considerably, and over a decade later her lips are still affected. These days lip filler treatment that uses silicone isn't recommended and is not approved by the FDA.

Other stories recently have been about lip filler treatments gone wrong, with people, mostly young women, left with severe infections and lumpy lips that are sometimes irreparable. Cosmetic procedures like lip fillers get trivialized on reality TV programmes and magazines by people like the Kardashian family. This can result in impressionable people being enticed by cheap deals seen on discounted online promotion websites. A lot of these cosmetic procedures are performed by unqualified practitioners, beauty salons, spa's and those without the correct medical training.

At Selston Cosmetic Clinic we have had outstanding results with our lip filler treatments. Dr. Bassi has performed thousands of injectable treatments and he has over ten years experience as a specialist cosmetic practitioner. To keep up to date with trends in the industry, Dr. Bassi has attended training courses and seminars in various parts of the world such as the USA, South America, Europe as well as in the UK.

The dermal fillers we use are hyaluronic acid based, which is a substance naturally occurring in the body. The hyaluronic filler injected into your lips acts like a cushion and adds more volume to them, attracting water to the area, providing an even softer volume.

Lip filler procedures can enhance:

• Vermilion border - which gives the outline and improves definition and minimises lip bleed.
• The upper and lower lip - can have the filler injected into it, giving more volume and substance to the lip.
• Cupid bow - defining the cupid bow gives female lips a balance.
• Philtrum ridges -  when defined by insertion of filler, this further enhances the features of the lips.

Get back your beautiful lips at Selston Cosmetic Clinic. With our help, your lips will once again enhance your facial features, making you look more youthful.

Lip Shapes & Lip Augmentation using Dermal Fillers - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

When we talk about celebrities who have beautiful lips, a few names will automatically come to mind. What makes the perfect pout? This is a question that has evolved through the years. Silent movie star Clara Bow in the 1920's with her bow lips, Marilyn Monroe and her classic red pout, right through to today and Angelina Jolie and her full luscious lips, all of them have a signature look.

1920's movie star Clara Bow and Marilyn Monroe

                                                

Over the years lots of lip shapes have become well-known by being associated with Hollywood actresses, singers or models. Lips can look thin, wide, round or full and plump, and while some have to apply lip liner and gloss to make their lips dazzle, others are born with naturally gorgeous pouts.

In Hollywood when lips are spoken of, we automatically think of Angelina Jolie. Her lips are one of her best features, and one that many women have tried emulate, and Julia Roberts is another actress that has a pair of lips that many women envy.

Angelina Jolie has full lips

But their lips are just a couple of lip shapes, here are a few more:

• Full Lips: Like Angelina, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley was also born with full natural lips, but has allegedly had fillers in recent times. Both of the lips are full but with more volume on the bottom lip. Fuller lips may not always be symmetrical but they are curvy and voluptuous.
• Round Lips: These lips look round, like a button and it's a very cute look. They may not look as sexy as full lips, but they do look very flirty, as Drew Barrymore shows us with her small mouth and pouty lips.
• Wide Lips: Julia Roberts is known for her wide lips and beaming smile. But there’s a big difference between full lips and wide lips. Actress Anne Hathaway's lips aren't full of volume, but are full in the sense that the lips are defined, and when she smiles it's very easy to notice that the lips are wider than those of most people.
• Thin Lips: Think of Kate Hudson for this type of lip and you will understand that Hollywood stars look gorgeous with their own natural pouts, whether the pout is plump or thin. Thin lips have a delicate look about them that big voluptuous lips do not.
• Bow or Heart-shaped Lips: This lip shape resembles a heart and expands like a bow. The lip is usually normal size and not too wide, but the lower lip tends to be slightly larger. Actresses Hayden Panettiere and Reese Witherspoon have this lip shape. Bow or heart-shaped lips are one of the most feminine of all lip shapes.

In recent times though, we have seen a new trend of overdrawn and over inflated lips. Kylie Jenner, Amy Childs and Courtney Love are just a few celebrities championing this look.

Kylie Jenner before and after lip fillers

Lip augmentation is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure for enhancing the look of the lips, making them fuller with a prominent lip line. We do this by injecting a dermal filler and is a safe and effective way to plump up thin lips.

At the Selston Cosmetic Clinic a patient may come in for a lip augmentation with a picture of a celebrity whose lips that they want to copy, but the shape is not suitable for their lips. A good cosmetic doctor will be able to tell you what  style of lips will best suit your face and lip shape.

So if you want to catch a man’s attention, don’t bother fluttering your eyelashes or flicking your hair. Just practise your pout.

Plump up your Smile Using Dermal Fillers for Lip Enhancements - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Your smile can lighten up your face and every time you speak your lips attract attention, so it's important that you love the way they look. Full and defined lips are synonymous with youthfulness, but as time goes by, the lips are an area that can give tell-tale signs of the fact that time is marching on!

Lip Enhancement and augmentations are an effective way to re-define the contours of the lips, providing balance and volume. Whether your lips have lost volume and become thinner as you've aged or whether you've always coveted full, sensuous lips, then a lip augmentation procedure can contour your lips,  helping you look younger and feel more attractive. The procedure also reduces the thin, fine wrinkles in and around the lips that make smiles look old.

Lips should be proportional and the guideline for the ideal lips suggests that the upper lip should be about 40% of the total height of the lips, and the bottom lip should be about 60%.

The time to consider lip enhancement should be when:

• You've always had thin lips and they tend to disappear when you smile.
• With age, your lips have become thinner and have lost some volume.
• You feel self-conscious about the look of your lips.
• You want to restore youthful contours and redefine the borders of your lips.
• Having fuller lips will help to balance out your face.

As we get older, our lips lose their plumpness and start to look thinner. Sometimes, having a small procedure can make all the difference. Just having your lips augmented slightly can make you appear years younger, without it being obvious that you have had anything done. People choose to have their lips enhanced for all sorts of different reasons. Sometimes the lips that we were born with are not as full as we would like, or maybe they have lost their fullness thanks to the passage of time.

As we age we lose natural substances such as collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid, which give the mouth area and lips structure and volume.

Loss of these leads to:

• Loss of definition of the lip's border.
• Loss of volume and flattening of the lip.
• Loss of hydration of the lip tissue.
• Development of lipstick and smoker's lines.
• Droopy mouth corners.

At the Selston Cosmetic Clinic we can give you back the outline and definition that your lips have lost over time. You can get back youthful lips by having specialised lip fillers, which are hyaluronic acid based. This substance is naturally found in the body.

The benefits of using hyaluronic acid fillers include:

• The amount of filler injected can be controlled, so there is better control over how much lip volume is created.
• The injections can be given gradually during different appointments until the desired lip volume results are achieved.
• Any lumps and bumps can be dissolved easily.
• There may be less bruising and swelling compared to other dermal fillers.
• The results are reasonably long-lasting, but not permanent.
• Because hyaluronic acid is found naturally in the body, it's unlikely to cause an allergic reaction.
