Overview
To create beautiful lips, the perioral region needs to be addressed as well. Perioral lines, the nasolabial folds, the Marionette lines, and the repositioning of the oral commissure are altogether steps that every injector needs to account for and address prior to targeting the lips. To reposition and to stabilize the oral commissure a specialized technique, which was popularized by Dr. Jeremy Green, was created. Learn in this video how to use the needle-based C-Technique to increase labial beauty and to avoid the perioral vascular dangers.
