The RIGHT way to get filler: your guide before getting filler
We all love a little bit of filler here and there to add volume. When it comes to your face and our treatments (especially filler), our goal is to make you look like we were never there. “Subtle Enhancements,” get it? 😉
To give you the most natural results while getting your aesthetic goals, we often need to add a little extra filler to places you were NOT planning on getting filler.
We call this facial harmonization. It’s all about balancing your face to get the right proportions.
If you’re thinking about getting filler, here are some things to consider.
Chin before jawline
If you want to treat your jawline, consider your chin. A defined jawline will look incomplete or interrupted without good chin projection
temples before cheeks
If you want sharp cheeks, consider your temples. Cheek filler over sunken temples makes the cheeks look fake and your temples appear more sunken. Making the face proportions look off.
Cheeks before tear-trough
If you want tear-trough filler, consider your cheeks. Without cheek support, the tear-through filler can migrate down and look puffy or ridge-like.
chin before lips
If you want juicy lips, consider your chin. Lip filler over a recessed chin makes lips look ducky and the chin look even smaller.
What if you just want to balance without the filler look?
You’ll never look overdone with us. But, if all you’re looking for is symmetry and balance, our Facial Balancing—8-Point Lift Treatment is a perfect option for you.
This is all about proportion and enhancing what your momma gave you. We assess your face as a whole and use only the smallest amount of product necessary.
