Achieving the coveted Korean "cherry lips" look typically involves lip filler injections strategically placed for a plump, natural appearance.
Understanding "Cherry Lips"
"Cherry lips" refers to a specific lip augmentation style popular in South Korea that aims for a rounded, plump shape reminiscent of cherries. Unlike other lip filler techniques that may focus on overall volume, cherry lips emphasize the central portions of the lips.
How is it Done?
The key to achieving this look lies in the precise injection technique:
- Central Focus: The lip filler is injected exclusively in the middle of the lips, avoiding the corners/edges of the lips. This creates the distinct "cherry" shape, concentrating the volume in the center.
- Natural Appearance: By focusing on the center and avoiding the edges, the look achieved is natural and not overfilled.
- Four Cherries Effect: The goal is to create the look of "four cherries"; two in the middle of the top lip, and two in the middle of the bottom lip.

Important Considerations
- Consult a Professional: Seek a qualified and experienced injector familiar with the Korean cherry lips style.
- Realistic Expectations: Discuss your desired outcome with your injector to ensure realistic expectations are set.
- Filler Type: The type of filler used can also impact the final result.
- Individual Variation: The final results can vary depending on each person's unique lip shape and anatomy.
By using this specific injection technique, you can obtain the rounded, full appearance that defines the Korean "cherry lip" look, emphasizing the center of the lips to create the characteristic "four cherry" effect without looking over-filled.
