Natural Looking Lips with Nerve Block – Highest Patient Satisfaction in Hawaii

Using the latest filler techniques and an artistic eye – Dr. Yew has consistently garnered the highest praise among his patients resulting in natural, full looking lips that last for up to 1 year.
Dr. Yew incorporates an advanced nerve block anesthetic into the lips resulting in a virtually pain free experience.

Focusing more on proper proportions and accentuating the vermillion lip border is the key to achieving beautiful and balanced results. In the photo of Angelina Jolie – one can see how good proportions contribute to her famous lips. Ideally – the lower lip should be approximately 1.5 times the size of the upper lip. Unskilled injectors often over-inject the top lip resulting in “duck” lips or “top heavy” lips.
