Injecting lip filler requires a unique mix of scientific knowledge, experience, and artistry. The filler should accentuate other features in the face and make the lips appear more voluminous in a natural way. That’s exactly the goal of the Russian Lip technique featured in this post.

A Master Injector, like the ones at Urban You, can help you achieve your ideal look through lip filler, but how do you know if you can trust an injector? Access to the Internet and social media can make finding a lip filler provider a bit easier, but sometimes the wealth of information online can feel overwhelming. Here are four quick tips to help you find a reputable injector. 

Look for a medical professional. 

Lip filler is an aesthetic treatment, but it is slightly invasive and requires someone with a medical background. You don’t want to mess around with infections or other medical issues later on so this is a super important prerequisite. Don’t put your health and safety at risk for cheap lip fillers! At Urban You, our injectors are registered nurses who understand how to use syringes, inject product, prevent infection, and minimize bruising. If nothing else, do your research to make sure your injector is using only FDA approved fillers. Never trust an injector who is reluctant to tell you the components or brand name of their filler product.

Prioritize experience and ask for referrals. 

Injecting filler requires more than just a medical background, and experience is imperative. Ask your injector how long they’ve been filling lips so you can make sure you’re getting the very best for yours. Don’t be too shy to ask for past client results, before and after pictures, and testimonials. If an injector is hesitant to offer these things, that is a huge red flag.

If you’re searching the plastered walls of Instagram for an injector, make sure they have plenty of featured clients posted on their page. Before you book an appointment, scroll through the posts and consider screenshotting them to show your injector what you like and don’t like for your lips. Looking for someone to fill your lips is a lot like looking for an artist to paint a portrait. There are lots of different styles and techniques, each with its own merits and advantages. Take some time to explore which lip filler look you prefer. 

Find an injectionist with a friendly and approachable demeanor.

It’s always a good idea to come to your appointment prepared to show lip inspiration photos and discuss your unique goals. If an injectionist isn’t open to listening to your thoughts, that’s another red flag. Remember, this person will be filling your lips with a sharp needle. You don’t want to give that responsibility to someone you don’t feel completely comfortable and relaxed around.

Don’t settle for someone who seems sloppy or distracted.

Seek out the most meticulous, detail-oriented injector you can find. Filling lips is an art of millimeters. Just an eighth of an ounce can make a world of difference. You’ll be able to tell if someone has that kind of dexterity and attention to detail by their demeanor, their attitude, and photos of their work.

If you want to save yourself some research time, you can rest assured that with the Urban You injectors by your side, your lips will never look better. Just make sure you still take a few minutes researching the lip look you want to achieve, and we’ll handle the rest.
