Dermatologists + plastic surgeons would both agree that a
little lip filler never hurt anyone. But they emphasize the words
"a little."
That's when
celebrities, models and
"regular women" get into
cosmetic trouble--when they don't adhere to those
words.
Getting
dermal filler can be quite
addicting. Whether you're using
filler to boost V-O-L-U-M-E into your
cheeks, jawline, under eye sockets or
lips,
a little goes a
long way.
A
good dermatologist or
good plastic surgeon knows when to say,
"when." But
sadly, many
surgical pros yield to the
patient's wishes, and
instantly we've got this:
When BIG Bad Lips Happen to Beautiful Women.
And this
time we won't even mention
actress Lisa Rinna.
Here are just a
handful of
stars with
beyond normal-looking lips---
Nicole Kidman, Kim Kardashian, Khloe Kardashian and Janice Dickinson.
No---We cannot prove these
lovely women have done
anything to their
lips cosmetically-speaking, but it would appear that they have
possibly gone
over-board with the
injections. Allegedly, we might add.
Experts will advise using
Hyaluronic acid fillers like
Restylane, Perlane, Juvederum, etc. These
substances are the preferred choice for
lip enhancement because when done
properly, look + feel
soft + natural.
And if lips become TOO
big, these
volumizing fillers can be
reversed.
Here's what
derm expert Dr. Teh Siew Yen says about
lip injection over-board:
"The key to natural looking lips is to start with a small amount of filler and touch up with more later, if needed. Too much lip filler can result in blunting of the lip edges and cause a sausage-like appearance. Less is often more and it is best to make the most of our natural lips rather than attempting to over-stuff it."
