What are doll lips?

Published in Cosmetic Procedures 2 mins read

Doll lips are a specific lip filler technique, often associated with the "Russian lip" style, designed to create a distinct and defined lip shape. This technique focuses on enhancing the vertical height of the lips while maintaining a relatively flat profile from the side, resembling the shape of a doll's lips.

Key Characteristics of Doll Lips:

  • Vertical Height: The primary goal is to increase the vertical height of the lips, making them appear taller.
  • Flat Profile: Unlike traditional lip fillers that focus on plumpness and projection, doll lips maintain a flatter profile from the side view.
  • Defined Shape: The lips are carefully sculpted to create a well-defined and precise shape, often with a subtle Cupid's bow enhancement.
  • Tiny Droplet Placement: The filler is typically injected in tiny droplets, meticulously placed to achieve the desired shape and avoid over-plumping.
  • Russian Lip Technique Association: Doll lips are strongly linked to the Russian lip filler technique, known for its precise and delicate approach.

How Doll Lips Differ From Traditional Lip Fillers:

Feature Doll Lips Traditional Lip Fillers
Shape Enhanced vertical height, flatter profile General volume and plumpness, rounded profile
Technique Tiny droplet placement, precise sculpting Broader filler distribution, less focus on specific shapes
Goal Defined and doll-like appearance Overall lip enhancement and volume
Profile Flatter from the side More projected and plump from the side

Considerations:

Achieving doll lips requires a skilled and experienced injector who understands the nuances of this technique. It's crucial to consult with a qualified professional to determine if this style is suitable for your individual lip anatomy and aesthetic goals. The procedure may also take slightly longer than traditional lip filler injections due to the precise placement of the filler.
