Lip Enhancement
Evolence is a fantastic product to use for lip enhancements.
It has several advantages over Restylane and Juvederm, due to the fact that it is a collagen enhancer.
Collagen does not cause as much swelling as the hyaluroinic acids Restylane and Juvederm, so it is much easier to assess how much enhancer is needed to create the volume you would like to see - in other words, the result you see at the time of enhancement is what you will see the next day, and long term. It is a much better product from my point of view, but requires quite a bit of skill to use well.
Evolence is more expensive than the hyaluronic acids Restylane and Juvederm, but lasts longer, and for lips, is the better product. Swelling, bruising and that bluish tinge of HA products are worth avoiding.
For Christmas 2008, I’m offering Evolence at £300 for lips, £300 for nasolabial folds and £300 for marionette lines. I offer tear trough and cheek enhancement, but a consultation is required to advise on the price for these complex areas, For nasolabial folds and cheeks, Restylance and Juvederm are great products at only £200 per treatment, and my prices for lips for these enhancers are less - £200 for both Juvederm and Restylance, although I would advise Juvederm in preference to Restylane for lips.
I offer free diamond medical microdermabrasion with all facial enhancements, usually priced separately at £50.
