About two or three times a year initially, later typically twice a year.

About 20 seconds.

Hi, my name is Riley Copans. I'm Miss Northern Virginia, USA Today. I'm getting my lips touched up. I have gotten my lips filled with Dr. Nadiri before, and I loved it. So now I'm back for a second round.
Typically, we do this about two or three times a year. The first few times is a little bit more closely staged, but then this tends to last longer and longer, and then eventually twice a year should be done.
So I'm injecting her vermilion border to create more definition. You can see how this side's flatter and this side is kind of coming up a little bit. Then I'm injecting the mucosa. Just hold a little pressure for 20 seconds. Bleeding stops, but there's no bruises. So then we go to this side. Same thing. Spread the vermilion border. Pretty superficial injection. I want to see exactly where my needle is going. A little bit more painful at the border, but it gives a really nice result when you need it.
