Key points
Russian lips in Geneva
The art of lip enhancement has changed dramatically with innovative techniques. Among these, “Russian Lips” has become a leading method. Inspired by the precision and aesthetics of Russian standards, it offers results that are natural, sophisticated and
perfectly harmonious with facial features. “Russian Lips” is more than a simple hyaluronic acid injection technique. It creates elegant, naturally full lips perfectly suited to each patient’s face.
How does the “Russian Lips” method work ?
The secret of “Russian Lips” lies in meticulous injection technique. Unlike conventional methods injecting product evenly to increase volume, it uses a precise vertical approach.
The steps are :
• Vertical-layer injections : hyaluronic acid is injected vertically from inside the lips outwards.
• Cupid’s bow enhancement : treatment focuses on the central lips to strengthen definition and create natural elegance.
• Even distribution : volume is added gradually, respecting symmetry and natural anatomy.
• Lifting effect : instead of simply adding volume, the method lifts lips for a fresh, rejuvenated appearance.
This precision ensures a natural, sophisticated result without the puffy or artificial effect patients often fear.
Why choose the “Russian Lips” method ?
There are many reasons to choose “Russian Lips”, both for aesthetic results and its ability to meet specific expectations.
Benefits are :
• Natural, refined results : enhancement without duck lips.
• Enhanced facial proportions : respecting overall facial harmony for a subtle but visible result.
• Complete personalisation : adapted to each patient’s needs and unique anatomy.
• A solution for all lip shapes, whether thin or already full.
Patients choosing this technique opt for a modern, elegant approach that enhances lips while remaining faithful to natural beauty.
Indications for Russian lips
This technique is indicated for :
• Rehydrating lips : over time, lips may lose natural hydration and become dry. By attracting and retaining water, hyaluronic acid deeply rehydrates, restoring suppleness and softness.
• Reshaping contours : lip contours are central to facial harmony. “Russian Lips” redefines contours and the Cupid’s bow that fade with age or natural asymmetry. Targeted injections create sharp, elegant border lines.
• Subtle plumping : ideal for patients wanting slightly fuller lips without artificiality. It plumps naturally, improving height and projection while preserving natural shape.
• Refreshing lips : lips may lose firmness and develop fine lines over the years. Gentle lifting and smoothing restore youthfulness and vitality for a fresher, brighter, more dynamic face.
What happens during a “Russian Lips” injection session ?
During consultation, Dr Romano assesses expectations, natural lip shape and facial harmony.
The injection session lasts around five minutes. After cleansing and disinfecting the lips, injections begin.
Using a fine needle, hyaluronic acid is injected with the characteristic vertical “Russian Lips” technique.
This is slightly more painful than conventional methods.
For sensitive patients, anaesthetic cream is applied half an hour beforehand. Treatment is quick and mildly uncomfortable.
At the end, Dr Romano massages to distribute product evenly.
Who can benefit from the “Russian Lips” technique ?
The "Russian Lips" technique is suitable for virtually all lip morphologies. However, for very thin or poorly defined lips, several sessions (up to three) may be necessary to achieve the desired result.
Cette méthode est particulièrement recommandée dans les cas suivants :
- Patients with thin lips.
• Les patientes présentant des lèvres asymétriques.
- Patients who want a lifted effect.
- Patients who want a natural result. However, all lip injections, whatever the technique, give a natural result if carried out by an experienced doctor.
Cette technique ne peut pas être réalisée chez les patientes qui ont des contre-indications aux injections d’acide hyaluronique.
How does “Russian Lips” differ from other injection techniques ?
“Russian Lips” stands out for its specific approach, ensuring natural, harmonious results.
Distinctive points are :
• Focus on the Cupid’s bow : unlike conventional techniques, central lip definition is emphasised. Lips become heart-shaped.
• Lifting rather than volumising : the aim is to structure and raise lips rather than increase volume. Lips will be very flat.
• Adaptation to each patient.
Price of Russian Lips in Geneva
In Geneva, Russian Lips augmentation costs 650 CHF per syringe. This reflects the method’s particular technical demands, aiming for height and definition without excessive volume. Cost remains the same for first-time treatment and maintenance every 10 months when one syringe is used. This fixed price allows patients to plan their aesthetic budget precisely while accessing a refined technique that has become a reference for lip injections in Geneva.
The publication on ‘lip tenting’ describes almost vertical injections to modify lip shape and volume. This technique aims in particular to increase lip height, a goal also sought with Russian Lips. The article explains the method but does not demonstrate that it is superior to other injection techniques.
A review of sixteen studies involving 3,692 patients compares several lip injection techniques, including linear injections and small deposits of product. Satisfaction was generally high, without any technique proving superior to the others. To achieve taller, better-defined lips, as patients requesting Russian Lips wish, the procedure should be tailored to their anatomy.
A review of new lip augmentation techniques explains how injections can redefine contours, alter projection and adjust volume. The authors highlight the importance of respecting the proportions of the lips and face. These principles allow treatment to be personalised, but this publication does not validate a single protocol or a standard lip shape.
