Russian Lips: Lifted. Defined. Effortlessly Elegant.

When it comes to lip filler, not all techniques are created equal. Some chase volume. Others chase balance.
The Russian Lip Technique is different. It’s all about height, shape, and elegance—drawing inspiration from the soft, heart-shaped pout of classic Russian dolls.
At Carisma Aesthetics, we use this technique to create lips that feel structured, lifted, and naturally refined. Never overdone. Always in harmony with your features.
What Makes Russian Lips Special?
Instead of adding volume outward, the Russian technique works upward—lifting the centre of the lips to enhance the Cupid’s bow and give a clean, doll-like shape.
What you get is:
A naturally defined pout
A lifted centre with subtle fullness
A flat side profile (no “duck lips”)
Crisp edges with soft symmetry
It’s perfect for anyone who wants shape, not bulk—and elegance over excess.
The Art Behind the Look
The technique is precise. Instead of injecting filler horizontally (like most traditional methods), we use fine needles to place the filler vertically, in tiny, sculpted amounts.
At Carisma Aesthetics, our medical team:
Uses micro-droplet placement for full control
Shapes the Cupid’s bow with care
Enhances the natural borders of your lips
Focuses on lift and structure—not just size
Done right, it looks soft, elegant, and balanced. And because it’s so targeted, it often reduces swelling and avoids product migration.
Is This Look for You?
This technique might be your perfect match if you:
Want a sculpted, clean-girl pout
Prefer vertical lift over horizontal volume
Have naturally thinner lips and want more shape
Want to dissolve old filler and start fresh
Are after definition, symmetry, and a flatter profile
Whether this is your first lip treatment or a switch from something more voluminous, Russian Lips offer a modern, polished alternative.
