You can get Russian technique lips if you’ve already had lip filler. However, the treatment works better if you don’t have filler in your lips. This is because your filler can interfere with how we place new filler with the Russian technique.
We generally advise waiting for your previous filler to wear off or dissolving it before getting Russian lips.
It is up to you whether or not to dissolve old lip filler before having Russian lips. Russian lips work optimally when you don’t have any lip filler.
If you dissolve your lip fillers, you need to wait 2 weeks before getting Russian lips.
Some clinics charge more for Russian lip fillers compared to traditional lip fillers because they are supposedly more challenging and take longer.
In reality, Russian lip fillers are not significantly more difficult to perform than regular lip fillers when done by an experienced medical professional. For this reason, we charge the same price for Russian lips as we do for traditional lip fillers.
With a gentle technique, tiny needles, and strong numbing, Russian lips should only have slight discomfort.
We use a moderately firm filler for Russian lips. This allows the lips to be accurately sculpted, maintain their shape, and look and feel natural.
The Russian lip technique takes 10-20 minutes.
The Russian lip technique involves vertical injections of dermal filler into your lips. This adds height to your lips, and defines your Cupid’s Bow and lip borders.
You will see an immediate result after Russian lip fillers. Allow a few days for swelling to subside, and 1-2 weeks for the filler to settle.
Russian lip fillers last 12-24 months on average.
You can increase the longevity by having regular maintenance treatments.
To prepare for your Russian technique lip filler appointment avoid alcohol and intense exercise within 24 hours of your treatment.
Remove all makeup from your lips before arriving for your appointment.
After having Russian technique lip filler avoid alcohol and intense exercise for 24 hours. Be gentle with your lips for 7 days, and apply a cold compress to minimise swelling and bruising.
When performed by a qualified medical professional, Russian technique lip fillers are a low-risk treatment.

Russian Lip Filler
Russian lip filler is a lip augmentation treatment. It gets its name from the resemblance the result has to Russian stacking dolls (matryoshka or babushka dolls). The Russian lip technique uses vertical injections of dermal filler to augment your lips. This adds vertical height to the upper lip, define the Cupid’s Bow and sculpt a crisp lip border.
The Russian lip technique has quickly become one of the most popular approaches to lip filler. It is a great option for people wanting a defined and full pout without the ‘duck lip’, ‘trout pout’ or ‘sausage lip’ effect.
What is the Russian lip technique?
Russian lips are currently one of the most popular cosmetic treatments in Australia.
Using the Russian lip filler technique, you can sharpen your lip definition, enhance your Cupid’s Bow, add vertical lip height, and sculpt plump, crisp lips. This is without overly projecting the side profile view. Adding emphasis to the Cupid’s Bow gives the lips a heart-shaped, doll-like look.
After cleaning and numbing your lips, we precisely place high quality lip fillers with vertical injections. The filler is placed from the lip body, backwards towards the lip border. This compares to regular lip filler where we inject horizontally to add fullness and projection to the lip body.
Filler is also placed vertically in the bottom lip to curl and define your lower lip border.
How are Russian lips different to regular lip filler?
Standard lip filler treatments are performed using horizontal injections of dermal filler. This allows the product to spread evenly in the red body of your upper and lower lips, creating an even fullness and projection, without focussing on vertical height.
The Russian lip technique focusses on increasing vertical lip height and defining the upper lip border and the Cupid’s Bow. Your lips are still volumised, but in a highly controlled way to minimise forward projection and prevent them from appearing distorted.
What you should know before getting Russian lips
Before choosing to have Russian lip fillers there are a few important things to know.
Lip fillers generally need maintaining every 12-24 months, although it is not uncommon for repeated treatments to last longer.
Most people will have some amount of swelling and bruising, and using a cold compress after your Russian lip injections is the best way to minimise this.
Finally, the filler used for the Russian lip technique can be reversed at any time, giving you full peace of mind.
If you have an important event, it is important get your Russian lips 3-4 weeks in advance, so that you have time to heal.
