A Skin Rejuvenate Cosmetic Injector administers a precise dose of muscle relaxant around the upper lip border into the orbicularis oris muscle that encircles your mouth. This relaxes the muscle, enabling the upper lip to slightly roll or flip upwards. This generates an illusion of greater volume and definition, yielding a fuller yet natural-looking lip. With minimal discomfort, this treatment can be as quick as 5 to 15 minutes.
