If you do find yourself yearning for that “model” look, Russian Lips are exactly what you’re looking for. The Russian Lip style has been on the rise over the last couple years, and it’s still at the top of many trend predictions for Fall 2023. If you’re new to Russian Lips, keep reading.

What are Russian Lips?
The Russian Lip technique transforms the lips into a subtle heart shape by focusing on adding volume near the center, similarly to a Russian nesting doll. The goal is to create a gentle curve along the vermillion border, which is the line that outlines the lips. Unlike most traditional filler styles, the Russian Lip technique is performed by injecting filler vertically, starting at the base of the lip and maneuvering the product outward toward the lip border. This subtle lift at the edges of the lips creates a youthful and slightly pouty look. The result is a fuller, yet entirely natural appearance that enhances natural features rather than overpowering them.
During your consultation, your injectionist will explain that the Russian lips trend focuses on enhancing the natural beauty of the lips while maintaining a soft and delicate appearance. This style of lip filler lifts and flattens the lips, making it ideal for lip filler newbies or those seeking a natural finish. Russian Lip filler is a noninvasive treatment, plus (like other filler options such as jaw, forehead, or cheeks) no downtime is required!
How are Russian Lips Different from a Lip Flip?
Russian lips focus on enhancing the entire lip area while maintaining a natural and slightly augmented look, while a lip flip is centered around enhancing the upper lip's visibility and fullness using Botox. The choice between the two techniques depends on your desired outcome, lip anatomy, and ultimate lip goals. If you’re having difficulty deciding between the two, that’s okay! Our providers completely understand the weight of your decision, and want to help you make the right choice.

Russian Lips FAQ
How much do Russian Lips cost?
Russian Lips cost the same amount as other lip filler styles. It’s impossible to narrow lip filler down to a single price, but you can SAVE on your lip filler by becoming a member at the Urban You medical spa, the #1 medical spa in Michigan!
The Urban You membership program includes 10% off any service, as well as special pricing on filler, Botox, and more! Plus, ask about Juvéderm Day (August 16th, 2023) and how you can get one FREE syringe of your favorite Juvéderm filler when you purchase two others.
How long does the Russian Lip technique take?
Your Russian Lip filler appointment will most likely take 30-45 minutes (including prep time). Results will be noticeable immediately, and will become more prominent over the first few days of healing. As mentioned earlier, Russian Lips are a no downtime treatment, so you can go about your daily activities as soon as you walk out of our building!
How long do Russian Lips last?
Like other lip filler styles, the results of your injections depend on aftercare, touch up treatments, and the amount of filler used. Juvéderm can last up to 18 months with proper aftercare!
To keep your pout looking plump and nourished even after 18 months, use a hyaluronic acid based lip treatment to encourage collagen production. We recommend the PCA Skin HA Lip Booster to hydrate and add volume to your lips 24/7!
