my name is Nina Cullen and I'm an
advanced practice registered nurse at
Johnson dermatology and I really enjoy
cosmetic dermatology one of my favorite
cosmetic procedures is dermal fillers
injected into the lips and bribed me ah
when I drop my most commonly used in
favorite fillers for the lips is the
Juvederm Ultra Plus XC which is a
hyaluronic acid and we at Johnson our
metrology really focus on keeping your
lips looking natural and just enhancing
the features of your lips that you
already have and so we use techniques
that will keep your lips looking natural
and then you won't have a lot of
downtime with when you come in for
injections of the lips it's really a
quick procedure it's a procedure where
you can come in be injected and then go
about your business like you have
nothing done there is risk of swelling
and bruising but we have lots of things
that we can do to help with that and so
most patients don't have anything that
can't be covered with makeup or that we
can't help you it and so it's an easy
procedure with really no downtime and
obviously no surgery which is nice and
so these are some of the features that
we can Hance with dermal fillers and the
this picture really depicts the
different and features that we focus on
one of them here is strong border and
that's talking about the border in
between the skin here and the actual lip
you can see there's a beautiful border
on these lips some women lose their
border over the years and that's when
they get there and lipstick running up
the vertical lines if they start making
here so when we put a filler in there
too and put that border back it does
lots of things it stretches out these
lines and makes them kind of go away and
then it also puts a little volume back
in the lid and it kind of prevents that
lipstick from running so that's really
nice and another thing
we do a lot is the pout and sum of
proportions of the lips are really
important you know the proportions of
the face are important to keep intact so
that you still look natural after you've
got your filler procedures and in the
lips what we try to do keep the top lip
smaller than the bottom lip so when you
think of a ducky lip or duck lips that's
a really unnatural look and that's
usually when this top lip gets way too
big and so how is when we're trying to
keep the natural proportion of the lip
1/3 at the top to 2/3 on the bottom lip
and so a lot of times we'll just
actually put the Jupiter right into that
bottom lip to roll that on and lick on
give you that sexy pout then the third
picture down here is depicting a strong
Cupid's bow and so some women will lose
that kind of Cupid's bow there in those
columns there and will actually inject
filler in there to give that shape of
the lip back if you've never had that
shape of the lip then you'll enjoy it
with the filler and the last thing here
is a larger volume for fuller lips you
know just like coloring your hair
different things come in style you know
sometimes an ombre Zen style sometimes
some highlights are in style sometimes
lowlights are in style right now what's
really in style with lips is bigger
fuller lips and so we do that a lot for
women that never have fuller lips
another reason will actually inject for
fuller lips is because as we mature
you'll have some volume loss and you'll
notice every 10 years your lips kind of
feel smaller and smaller and so those
who have been come in and let us inject
lips to get back to where they were 10
years ago and so will actually inject
filler directly into the lip to give
that fuller lip and that can be done
really professionally with the
techniques that it still looks natural
and no one would even know you had them
the injection your lips
so the Jupiter ultra we usually tell
patients last about a year and we really
enjoy doing it and our patients love it
