Tangi Lifestyles: Unveil Those Lovely Lips

As mask mandates are being lifted, our spirits are uplifted as well since now we are able to express ourselves and smile! A big part of that beautiful smile is made up of our lips. Women have been augmenting their lips for hundreds of years in the form of lipsticks. Today, that same feel-good moment you get from a new lipstick can be achieved with a long-lasting injectable filler in the lips.

As we age, our skin loses collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid which leads to a loss of volume and definition of our features. Our lips appear dry and dehydrated, and we lose the crisp border and suppleness of the lips. Eventually, the corners of the mouth start to turn down due to a loss of supporting volume.

Well-placed hyaluronic acid filler can restore balance and symmetry to our lips. Special techniques are used to help sharpen the border of the lips or simply add a long-lasting glossy shine and smoothness. Additionally, filler gives support to structures around the mouth which can turn that frown upside down.

In many cases, this can be achieved with just one single syringe (1/5th teaspoon) of filler, although this can vary drastically from person to person and based on the patient’s age. Most hyaluronic acid fillers last about one year.

It’s time to show that beautiful smile that has been hidden for over a year and enhance it with age-defying filler!
