The Perfect Pout
By Kristin Osman, RN | Grace Aesthetics
Gone are the days of the overly plumped, obviously filled lips. Today’s beauty standard embraces something much more refined: A subtle, natural enhancement that restores youthful volume, hydration, and definition, without looking overdone. At Grace Aesthetics in Cool Springs, our philosophy is simple: Elevate your natural beauty with the most advanced aesthetic techniques, ensuring that you look refreshed, not altered.
I have been a nurse for nineteen years, and I love bringing my experience of necessary precision and attention to detail to my work as an aesthetics injector. One of my favorite treatments is lip augmentation, or, as we like to say at Grace Aesthetics: The subtle lip pop. Our approach is a modern take on lip filler that delivers soft, kissable lips with just the right amount of volume and shape. Whether you want a barely-there enhancement or a more noticeable (yet still natural) plump, we customize each treatment to your unique lip structure, facial harmony, and personal aesthetic goals.
THE ART OF THE PERFECTLY PLUMPED LIP
Lip filler has evolved tremendously over the years. No longer a one-size-fits-all approach, today’s techniques and products allow for full customization - ensuring that your lips are not only fuller but also naturally shaped, hydrated, and proportionate to your face. With several different types of lip fillers available, choosing the right one can be overwhelming. During your appointment, I assess your lip structure, discuss your goals, and recommend the best filler option to achieve your desired look. Often, I will choose to use a combination of two or more products for a truly customizable filler experience.
Restylane
Classic, Versatile & Naturally Voluminous
Restylane is the original hyaluronic acid filler and remains a top choice for lip enhancement due to its ability to provide natural-looking volume while maintaining softness. It is a great option for those who have naturally thinner lips and want more structure and shape with noticeable fullness and defined vermillion borders.
Restylane Refyne
Soft, Flexible & Ultra-Natural
For those seeking a hyper-natural enhancement, Restylane Refyne is an excellent choice. This filler is formulated with XpresHan Technology™, allowing it to move naturally within the lips. It’s slightly softer than the original Restylane, providing a subtle boost in volume while preserving natural expression and movement. Refyne is perfect for those who are looking for hydration and subtle smoothing rather than significant plumping.
Restylane Kysse
Soft, Defined & Naturally Plush
Restylane Kysse is slightly firmer than Refyne, adding shape, structure and noticeable volume while maintaining softness. It’s the go-to choice for those who want plumper, well-defined, yet natural lips with long-lasting results (Kysse lasts up to a year!)
My personal favorite combo is classic Restylane and Restylane Refyne because you can achieve a good lip border (which is sometimes lost as we age) and still achieve beautiful, soft fullness without looking puffy or unnatural. My goal, and the goal of all of us at Grace Aesthetics, is to give you lips that enhance the rest of your facial features - not distract from them. When you leave your appointment, your lips will feel refreshed, as though you’ve magically been given the beautiful, youthful lips you’ve always wanted. Because you have.
