February News

For the month of February, our focus at The Best You is on Lip Fillers, just in time for Valentine’s Day! As an ode to the ever growing trend in cosmetic injectables, we have solicited the expertise of one of our very own accomplished Cosmetic Nurse Injectors, Karolina Tkacz. In this month’s blog, Karolina chats with us about the most frequent questions, concerns, and tips, she addresses during a Lip Filler consultation.

KT:
I commonly get questions regarding lip injections. Lips are one of the first things we see when we talk to people, so it’s no wonder you don’t want them to look overdone or unnatural.
As we age, we suffer loss of volume, droop, loss of definition of lip borders, and dimpling of the chin. These are all good reasons to come in and rejuvenate your mouth.

Facts:
As we age we lose volume and collagen production decreases, therefore; making our lips appear thinner or “deflated”.

Lip filler can reduce or even eliminate smoker’s lines by adding volume and hydration to the area.

One syringe of filler isn’t too much. In fact,  one syringe of filler is only 1ml of product or 1/5 of a teaspoon.

Dermal Filler is a gel like substance called hyaluronic acid (natural moisturizers that we all naturally produce).

If lip filler isn’t for you, you can try Botox for “lip flip” and tackle smoker’s lines at the same time. You can turn your aging, “depressed” smile by having a Botox  treatment done in the DAOs. This turns the corners of your mouth upwards creating a more youthful appearance.

Botox can also be used to correct uneven smile or gummy smile with amazing results!

If you have thought about lip fillers or Botox for fuller lips, lip flip or smoker’s lines and are still unsure or have more questions please come and see me, at The Best You Collingwood, or visit any one of our other The Best You locations for a consultation before you decide.

We will also be hosting individual events for the month of February, with a spotlight on Lips and Lashes, at each one of our Ontario-wide locations. For dates and locations, see below:
