Filler: Lips

Sonja’s first time at Smoothline

Sonja is a new client here and would like her lips to have a more balanced shape.

“I’ve disliked my lips for as long as I can remember. As a child I fell and landed on my mouth, and I bit through my lip in the process. Since then, my lower lip has unfortunately had an irregular shape. And my upper lip is also very, very thin.”

Have you had a cosmetic facial treatment before?

“No, this is the first time. I’ve been thinking about it for a long time, but I was always concerned that the result might not look natural.”

What encouraged you to try it now?

“I’ve thought about it so often but was never brave enough. When my best friend had her lips done and the result looked really natural, I knew it was finally time for me to get mine done too!”

“I was given such good information.”

I was really afraid of how the procedure might change my face. But the physician who carried out the treatment didn’t just explain the process; he also described the effect of the filler and the symmetrical features of my face, so I had nothing to be afraid of.

What does beauty mean to you?

“Beauty is relative and is always in the eyes of the beholder. For me, beauty means feeling good about yourself. People who feel beautiful radiate that sentiment. And it shows.”

What were your biggest concerns about having treatment?

“My biggest fear was that I would come out of the treatment center with oversized lips that don’t suit me at all.”

Before/after

Fortunately, Sonja’s fears that she would leave Smoothline with oversized lips turned out to be unfounded. ;-) We used a hyaluronic acid filler to give her lips a balanced appearance, giving her narrow upper lip a little more volume and smoothing out the imbalance in her lower lip. Sonja’s reaction to the result: “I’m so happy with how natural it looks. And I’ve finally got an upper lip!”
