Why "signature lips" may not fit you.
Updated: Sep 6

We believe that using templates or "signature treatments" on facial modifications are just temporary trends.
Lip filler has changed over the years. If not long ago it was all about overdone big lips which infamously led to the name "duck-lips", it later shifted to catchy-names like "italian lips", "russian lips" and so on. At the moment, most people have realised that close-to-natural as possible is the ideal goal. Many people are now looking for results that suit their own face rather than using the same lips template as everyone's else, reason why the next step in lip fillers is moving away from templates.
There isn't a perfect lip shape like to suit everyone
Every person has a different face. Some people naturally have fuller lips, while others have thinner lips or changes in volume over time. Because everyone starts from a different point, the same treatment will not create the same result on every person. A good treatment plan begins by looking at what already suits your face and making changes that feel appropriate for you.
We moved away from using templates long ago
Social media trends can influence the way people perceive beauty, and not always in a positive way. For this reason, choosing a particular look simply because it is currently “trendy” can be a bad decision.
In recent months, Honey Lips clinic has seen an increasing number of clients seeking to correct old filler treatments or very low-budget past procedures, often received as “free models”. While getting lip filler as part of a special always seem a great opportunity, correcting the result later can become a much more expensive process (financially, physically and in terms of time).
Treatment starts with understanding your goals
Before any treatment, it is important to understand what you would like to improve and what type of result you want.
A consultation considers:
Your natural lip shape
Your facial features
Your expectations
Any previous treatments
The level of change you would like to achieve
The treatment plan should be created around these factors rather than following the same approach for everyone.
Enhancing your appearance while staying yourself
Many people choose lip filler because they want to improve their appearance while still looking like themselves. The aim is not to create identical results or copy a specific style. It is to make changes that work with your own features. For some people, this may mean adding a small amount of volume. For others, it may mean improving shape, balance or definition.
The future of lip fillers is improving your own
Lip filler treatments are becoming more focused on individual choices rather than following a single trend. Instead of choosing a look because it is popular, the focus should be on finding what works best for you. People are not the same, so treatments should not be identical either.
