Popular lip shapes with lip filler treatments: Western and Korean styles 2024

In today’s world, cosmetic procedures are increasingly popular among people of all
genders, aiming to boost confidence and enhance facial aesthetics. Among these,
filler injections have become a standout trend, with lip fillers emerging as one of
the most sought-after treatments. Their ability to target multiple facial areas makes
them a versatile choice.

What Are Fillers?
Fillers are injectable substances made of Hyaluronic Acid (HA), a natural
component that restores volume, boosts collagen, and rejuvenates the targeted
area. HA fillers are biodegradable and dissolve naturally over time, varying in
longevity depending on the brand and aftercare. With a wide range of formulations,
fillers can be tailored to different skin conditions and treatment areas.

At Well Clinic, two filler brands are particularly popular for lip augmentation:

• e.p.t.q S300 (Orange Box)

◦ Origin: South Korea
◦ Features: Medium texture, offering flexibility and good adhesion for
shaping lips.
◦ Longevity: 8-12 months

• Restylane Kysse

◦ Origin: Sweden
◦ Features: Fine texture specifically designed for lips, ensuring smooth,
natural results without lumps.
◦ Longevity: 12-15 months

Who Are Lip Fillers Suitable For? Lip fillers are ideal for individuals with:
• Uneven lip symmetry (top-bottom or left-right).
• Dry, flaky lips with visible creases that make lipstick application uneven.
• A desire to enhance lip volume or change lip shape, whether for a plumper,
“Western-inspired” look (Fah-Sai) or a delicate, “Korean-style” aesthetic.
Well Clinic offers a variety of lip shapes tailored to individual preferences:

Western-Style (Fah-Sai) Lips
This style emphasizes full, voluminous lips with balanced upper and lower lip sizes,
avoiding sharp cupid’s bows. It creates a sensual, bold look influenced by Western
celebrities. Popular shapes include:

1. Sexy Kysse: Slightly upturned corners with a plump, sexy appearance.
2. Hollywood Lips: Defined lip edges with prominent volume, reminiscent of
   Hollywood stars.
3. Full Lips: Evenly filled upper and lower lips for a naturally plump appearance.
4. Signature Well Kysse: A customized shape blending natural features with a
   touch of Fah-Sai fullness.
   

Korean-Style (Sigh-Gao) Lips
Korean-style lips focus on a defined cupid’s bow, subtle “cherry” accents on the
lower lip, and slight upward corners for a soft, delicate appearance. Ideal for
enhancing natural beauty, popular shapes include:

1. Barbie Lips: Cute and slightly lifted corners with moderate cherry accents.
2. Cherry Well: Prominent cupid’s bow with dual cherry accents for a smiling
   effect.
3. Angel Well Lips: Natural-looking lips with clear borders and no sharp cupid’s
   bow.
4. Classy Kysse: A blend of natural features with added volume and hydration.

Natural Style Lips
This style focuses on enhancing the existing lip shape, combining elements of both
Western and Korean aesthetics. It emphasizes a fuller, hydrated look without
drastically altering facial features.
Pre-Treatment Recommendations

1. Choose a trusted clinic, consult a specialist about desired shapes and filler
   brands, and determine the amount needed (in cc).
2. Avoid vitamins that can prolong bleeding for 1-2 weeks before the procedure.
3. Refrain from alcohol for 1-3 days.
4. Avoid aspirin or anti-inflammatory medications.

Post-Treatment Care

1. Avoid heat exposure (e.g., hot food, steam, or sauna) for 2 weeks to allow
   fillers to settle.
2. Abstain from caffeine, alcohol, and fermented or raw foods for 1 week to
   prevent infection or inflammation.
3. Avoid spicy, sweet, salty, or sodium-rich foods.
4. Stay hydrated (1.5–2 liters of water daily) to maintain filler plumpness.
5. Consume vitamin-rich fruits, vegetables, and protein-rich foods for optimal
   healing.
6. Consume vitamin-rich fruits, vegetables, and protein-rich foods for optimal
   healing.

Why Professional Guidance Is Crucial
Lip fillers should always be administered by an experienced medical professional.
Research thoroughly, choose a trusted clinic, and select fillers that suit your
desired lip shape. Improper techniques or counterfeit fillers can lead to
unsatisfactory results, such as uneven texture or non-dissolvable fillers. Genuine
fillers naturally dissolve within 6-15 months, depending on the brand and aftercare
routine.
At Well Clinic, expertise meets artistry to deliver safe, natural, and confidence-
boosting results tailored to each individual.
