Mona Lisa Injection Technique – retrograde linear.

Deposits of o.05ml. depth 1.5mm.  Used to lift the commissure. Injected at the corner of upper and lower lip, starting at 3-4mm from the commissure, outwards and upwards. Can be done through single puncture or from two.  Can also be done by threading the needle up or down   through the corner of the mouth, superficially, linear retrograde. See above image.

Fibre Separation Technique:

Done with a dry needle (no filler is injected through the process). From one entry point you are fanning the area with a needle SUPERFICIALLY! The needle should contour but not shine the metal through. You work the area multiple times from one entry. When satisfied that the area is ready, inject a desired amount if filler in one bolus at the prepped site. Usually up to 0.1ml (picture below in blue)

String Technique:

You make a knot on a piece of string. The client then places the knot behind their teeth and holds the other end of the string taunt to the lip. You then use a simple bolus or fan technique to inject into one side and then into the other side of the bottom lip. It creates two pillow each side of the lip. (picture above in red)
