How to Avoid Going Overboard with Lip Injections?

The signs of passing years don’t only show up with the changing world around us but are reflected on our faces and body as well. 

Developments such as wrinkles and fine lines on our facial skin are nothing new but are capable of altering our view of ourselves in an instant. 

Being used to youthful skin for a good part of our lives, it might become a little difficult for many of us to accept these emerging transformations. 

However, we have good news for you. Thanks to the advancement in aesthetic science it is easy to get back your youth or maintain it. There are now procedures set in place that stimulate collagen in your face, or add moisture to it, such as dermal fillers. 

These have been rising in popularity, and are minimally invasive procedures so you don’t have to waste money on beauty products online. Dermal fillers for lips have been on the market for decades, but they were more of a hush phenomenon back then. However, they have been gaining a lot of momentum when it comes to moisturizing and reawakening the skin, along with plumping up the lips. Now with a couple of procedures, you can enjoy the long-term effects of dermal fillers with low recovery time.  

However, people are always in danger of going overboard with the procedure as soon as they see positive changes. For those who are highly aesthetically inclined, adding dermal fillers to their creasing skin can be revitalizing causing them to add more and more to it. Unfortunately, this is human nature, and a lot of us struggle to find a middle ground with it. We highly suggest that you develop a plan and go about it safely.

Here are some problems you can run into if you over-do it with the dermal fillers:

Pillow Face

These usually result when one has their cheeks and under eyes overfilled with dermal fillers. High cheekbones are enviable and give you a regal look, full cheeks are associated with looking youthful but overdoing them can have an adverse effect. They look unnatural, and inappropriate completely deflecting from what you were trying to achieve in the first place. When you overfill the cheeks and the under eyes you obliterate the natural lid cheek junction. The eyes become smaller, and the entire mid-face starts to bulge, resembling a pillow. 

Avatar Nose

Using fillers to augment the nose without the fillers is common practice. Properly proportioned angles, straight dorsum, sharp tip, and a good front to the back-projection are common characteristics of an aesthetically pleasing nose. However, if you go too far with the fillers there is a possibility that the entire purpose of the nose job will be eradicated. Several people overdo it with the fillers on the nose bridge which completely obscures the nasofrontal angle, resulting in an odd heightening of the nose bridge.

Bulging Forehead

Our foreheads tend to have their natural contours, like our eyebrow ridge. It is important to respect how these contours are placed and strategize the placement of the dermal fillers. You need to make sure that you do not overdo it because remember, we are going for long term effects of dermal fillers here. If you want to retain your natural look you will have to have a flat or slightly concave area around the temple. However, those who overdo this have their temples turn out to be rounded which makes them look like they are bursting at the seams. 

How to avoid going overboard with dermal fillers?

The most effective way you can prevent any of the aforementioned results from happening to you is by educating yourself. Firstly, choose the right medical professional for this job. Even if you are buying beauty products online, make sure you consult with your aesthetician before you use them. Google has allowed knowing everything about the person we are associating with so make sure that you look through a professional’s website inside out. 

Every cosmetics surgery practitioner will not be a complete professional at this procedure, and so you will need to know what to look for in the specialist. 

We suggest doing heaps of research before you pick one. Figure out the kind of certification a practitioner in your country or area would need to be considered legitimate to do the job. 

Once you have picked out a good medical practitioner for the job make sure to book a consultation with them first. 

Ask them as many questions as you can, and then take a couple of days to come to a decision. A good practitioner will analyze your face, gauge your requirements before giving you the final verdict on what you should do, and how much.

Learn to trust your medical practitioner because they have gotten the necessary education and training to conduct the job. Please never go home after getting fillers injected, and add more fillers.
