Woman looks upward during dermal filler injections

Do you love the pouty, lifted look of the lips on Russian nesting dolls? It’s a beautiful, youthful look that many women aspire to — and it’s within your reach thanks to the popular new Russian lip filler technique.

At Freya’s Lair Medical Spa in Albuquerque, NM, we specialize in advanced filler techniques, including the popular Russian lip filler method. We combine the luxurious atmosphere of European spas with the most up-to-date, nonsurgical rejuvenation treatments. Our highly skilled team uses unique artistic techniques, combined with scientific precision, to give our patients the very best filler results.

Our injectors undergo extensive training and have unique specialties in dermal filler techniques that only a select handful of injectors offer in the United States. “Russian lips” are one of the most popular requests we get today, and we love helping patients love their lips. Here’s what you should know about Russian lips.

The Russian Lip Filler Technique

The Russian lip filler technique is perfect for those who want a subtle enhancement with a youthful look.

With this approach, our injectors place a filler such as JUVÉDERM® XC vertically, starting at the bottom of the lip and moving outward to the borders. This approach creates:

A Subtle Heart Shape

With Russian lip fillers, you have more volume in the middle of the lips and less on the borders. The technique emphasizes the Cupid’s bow of the lips.

Height Over Plumpness

The Russian lips technique focuses on lightly lifting the lips in the middle instead of making them overly full everywhere.

Overall, the Russian lip filler technique creates a flatter, less “filled” look while refining your lip contours into a lovely, natural-looking shape. This method is ideal for those new to lip fillers or anyone looking to avoid the exaggerated “duck lips” appearance.

The Russian Lip Filler Procedure

Because the Russian lip technique is highly precise, it takes slightly longer than standard lip fillers. The treatment takes 45–60 minutes, including prep time, and involves minimal discomfort.

We use ultra-fine needles to inject fillers, and our team also numbs your lips ahead of time.
