RUSSIAN LIPS TREATMENT
- sharp and defined cupid’s bow
- most desired heart shape
- key whole
- at side profile
Russian Lip Technique is a method that contours the lips into a modest heart shape with increased volume near the center. It lifts the lip rather than adding volume, making it great for lip filler rookies or those looking for a natural look.
The Russian Lips technique accentuates the cupid’s bow to resemble a heart shape by injecting additional volume and lift into the center part of the lips, while the sides still remain relatively in line with the face. The result is doll-like while still appearing naturally full and plump.
This ultimately gives a more structured and plump appearance to the lips.
