Juvéderm® Is The Best Cosmetic Procedure Available To Obtain Fuller Lips
All the lipstick and balm in the world can’t give you truly shapelier lips. That’s where Juvéderm® comes in. The goal of the procedure is found in the name. The “juve” section of the word comes from the Latin root meaning “youth.”
As we age, our lips begin to thin noticeably. In fact, thinning lips is one of the first signs of aging and can occur as early as your late 20s or early 30s. Juvéderm® reverses this trend, giving you back your youthful, full lips.
Our own Dr. David Shafer told Beauty in the Bag that Juvéderm® Ultra Plus XC is the best choice for people hoping to change their lip size. In the right hands, the filler can add definition and volume, and create a more appealing shape.
With Juvéderm® you don’t have to worry about a mistake leaving you with permanent duck lips. The procedure can reversed using hyaluronidase, in the rare event that you are unhappy with the results.
Choose The Right Lip Shade To Enhance Your Results
Whether you love bold colors for your lips or more natural hues, make sure you are choosing the right shade based on the rest of your facial features. Women with red hair should choose warmer shades to compliment their hair. Similarly, cool tones best flatter olive skin. If you’re matching your lips with your eyes, try going for the opposite shade. For example, warm lips make blue eyes pop.
Don’t Forget To Hydrate
Juvéderm® locks moisture into your lips, so make sure to give it all the water it needs. Grab a water bottle and take it with you everywhere to stay hydrated. Given the proper moisture, the results of Juvéderm® can last for up to 12 months, so protect you investment and drink that water.
